Ok. I am an ethiopian.....but I think their comments are honest and mostly right. It is our responsibility to change our image. we are poor and have history of famine,political problems. Please lets try to work together to change that where ever we are.

As an Ethiopian this is may be some thing I do not want to hear about Ethiopia but hey that is the truth, the only way that we can change the truth is by being truthful about the situation and make a drastic change....damn may next time say in a decade or so we will be on the map once again as the most progressive economy in Africa lol,

The illuminati revolution of 1974 has created a lot of problems for Ethiopia, it is time to restore the monarch, our great tradition.

[Awash777]

livish, Ethiopia is a great nation, Ethiopia is mentioned in the Holy Bible 42 times, the only problem we have is bad governance. Ethiopia's great monarchy was interrupted in 1974, since then the leadership is not good at all.

I'm sorry, it's selective idiocy. I've never been there and yet I know more. Why? I chose to. People find out about people and places they deem important.

one last think u r foolish to think we can change our image. we may try to get out of poverty but even if we get to that level the mass media is never on our side it is a racist white controlled media. it i will always be negative.

dahabfin

what they said is not true i disagree with u. for example this ppl are Australian we can look at their negative political issues how they killed of the Aboriginal how the aboriginal live in Ghetttos etc etc etc. We are not denying we are poor nation but the point is the way they think of us is only famiine. well we have many other things too unlike what the media says.

[liyish]

The media coverage is only famine and war thus all they know of Ethiopia is that.

I bet if u asked them other African nations they will be clueless!! i laugh so much ppl ask me where im from i lie and say random African nation other than Ethiopia the media never mentions so i said im from Djibouti and the guy was like your booty!! lol! other day i said im from Gabon and the guy said where is it and i lied and said in the west indies islands and he believed my lie.
