Malnutrition, Stunted Growth Still Prevalent in Tigray, Other Regions - Unicef Daily Monitor (Addis Ababa) Posted to the web 31 May 2007 By Endale Assefa More than 41 percent of children under five experience stunted growth in Tigray and an estimated 11.6 percent suffer from acute malnutrition, according to UNICEF-Ethiopia. In a press release sent to The Daily Monitor, the UN agency said the deplorable situation in the region was revealed during a visit by the Head of European Commission and Tim Clarke, Head of European Commission in Ethiopia to UNICEF - supported child nutrition sites in Tigray- Mekele on May 29, 2007. UNICEF says the problem of malnutrition was the case with other regions of the country where it said a large scale intervention was needed to save millions of vulnerable children. "We have just seen a child here who is 18 months old. Her normal weight should be 13 Kilos; but she is only five kilos-highly at risk and we can give her therapeutic feeding in order to give her a chance to survive," Tim Clark said during the visit. According to the 2002 demographic and health survey, 47 percent of Ethiopian children are stunted and 11 percent wasted. The EC delegate to Ethiopia has provided 7.6 million Euros to UNICEF during the past year in support of the Enhanced Out reach Strategy (EOS)/ TSF-Targeted Supplementary Food Program- a joint program initiative executed between the government, WFP and UNICEF. UNICEF indicated that with European Commission's donation, it was working in life saving efforts Ethiopia by providing mothers and children with key survival interventions. "Tigray has just over 500 places with in the Therapeutic Feeding Program (TFP) through out the region. For complete coverage we need roughly 14, 000 to cope with on going severe mal-nutrition needs that is still a huge gap," explains Dr. Iqbal Kabil, UNICEF Head of Nutrition and Food Security Section.

I have met Dimblibi in addis ababa during mengistu. last week he interviewd Meles in some point wich are abvious and clear for every body but deliberately missed many of his weakness and also tried to prais him about education growth, for god sake which education plan he is talking about? dimissing 45 highly experainced proffesors? redusing the university from four years to theree years so that graduates cant persu their graduate program in other countries?intimidating and even asulting teachers in most high school. I don't realy know and even Meles realy don't know what Dimblby was talking about some time.Thsi guy is a spin for the woyane regium i guess.From my recolacation Dimblby was cought in the tigray region by Ethiopian sodures during mengistu and i guess they have abused him abit becasue he enters the country throgh the border with help of shabia and woyane. Then he was forced to interview the dead Colonel john Garang of the SPLA leader( sudean leabration front) in order to give them a media coverage. They were ignored by the west becasue they were on the side of the socialist regioum even if they were fight for their right of freedom.One thing that we have to note is at that time Osama Biladin was operating in Sudan and mengistu was againest his activity. Mengistu closed three Sudan's fudamentalist islamic schools in addis ababa around Lancha. Dimblby didn't report this instead he was facilitating support for woyane and shabia. I don't know how much money he got for this job from woyane becasue he was able to get a lots of money from the britain MI5. The funny thing is that He also asked Mengistu the same question like meles, when do you step down from power.I guess he know the answer but he also knows that is the obvius question in the mind of ethiopians. At last what i like to stress is that the interview shold be measured in the contecst of Dimblbi"s back ground. About Melese’s interview with Dimblebi.
