Shabians if this news bothers you read it twice ...

Do you know the population of Ethiopia annual growth??? May be four times of the economic growth you just mentioned, that means Ethiopia annual real net growth is NEGATIVE THREE TIMES THE PERCENTAGE YOU MENTIONED. That is why Ethiopia will not come out from beginning business to feed its people for a long time to come unless they address the unwanted children breeding business by irresponsible Ethiopians. People in the South especially in Oromo region are breeding like there is an award to be given to them if they produce more kids. It is a shame to the nation, you cannot have kids you cannot afford to raise them as good productive citizen of the country. They are a lot of ways you can reduce the exponential population growth if there is a will and commitment from the leadership of the country.

Here is the thing that I don't get. According to Weyane Ethiopia's economy has been growing year after year but people are still starving. Where do they get their figures?

Aragaw, this is just a sedative. The wey-anes and their foreign handlers know how much the ethiopian ppl are fed up and angry with this regime and they know too that the freedom fighters are getting stronger and stronger everyday, so they´ve to come up with this cooked up figures to sedate and calm the population. But this as everything else they come up with will not last long because one can fool some ppl one time but one cannot fool all the ppl all the time.

Aragaw GDP is the amount of goods and services produced in a year. It is measures the value of all final goods and services produced in Ethiopia. As you can see there is a development effort ( even though they are not running as fast as one could expect). If you are saying there is more goods and services produced 20 years ago than now .. that is another debate. Yes GDP growth should correlate with the standard of living.. it should improve .. the problem with us is that we have uncontrolled population growth.. 20 years ago our population was 50 million and today near 76 million. That may be why you do not see the change impacting the standard of living for many people, may be the govt should curb the population growth through education on the topics of protected sex etc. But the figures are telling you that there is a growth in the economy and it has been approved by IMF.

Minelik,

Thanks for the explanation. Yes population grew a lot the past 20 years. My argument is at the end of the day no one in Ethiopia should be starving. The past two governments were unable to feed its people and this one is following in the same footsteps. The country remain the poster child of starvation after 20 years weyane took power. When will it be the chain of this cycle brakes and Ethiopia able to feed itself? That is the only argument I have.

Zmeselo,

No matter how much they cooked up the figures, reality on the ground will not change. We are and will remain to be fed by someone else God knows how long. Sad!

aragaw watch this please: http://www.diretube.com/ethiopian-news/appropriate-technologies-scales-up-production-in-ethiopia-video_86034b75c.html
i am optimist with the introduction of such appropriate and affordable technology to inhance production we will be self sufficient in the coming 5 years. we need just to stay motivated by the recent past motivated and contribute our best. with out doing so cursing the gov't is not going to help us either. so be optimist and try to help your country in any way you can please

abyssinean,

Thanks for the video clip. It was a good progress in its part and it will definitely enhance production. The main problem is we are still unable to control the year after year problem of waiting for rain. That is the main reason that we are unable to become self sufficient. We can have all the technologies but up until we use other means to control our waters and fed our people the rest of progress become meaningless. We haven't had war in the past several years. These should have been the best time to show progress. Take a look at the gap between the haves and the have not. It is scary and break your heart walking on the street seeing so many people begging. After 20 years in power this should have been controlled if not eliminated. We'll have to wait and see what the next 5 years will bring.
