Ethiopia is just…sad. They should have been the Japan of Africa, a country that fended off colonialism and industrialised itself into a power but it just never happened.

Ethopia is dissapointing they could have been much more. The number of Ethopian immigrants caught in Zambia on their way to South Africa, usually transported by smugglers is alarming. We begin to as if this is the same Ethopia we know or things are different outside Addis Abba. One of fastest growing economies, but it does not look like their people are benefiting from it.
