DUMB ERITREANS! PLEASE GETTA A LIFE AND SPEND SOME TIME ON ASMARINO!

even the numbers are very low.

In derg time those their famillies were direct beneficiary of thire fathers or mothers were used to tell us how our enemies like eplf, tplf and thire. But they dont want to discuss how thire courrupt fathers and mothers hurt EThiopia and Ethiopians.

Tplf is leading the country and it has its own private entrprises only for tigray under the name of tigray development (TD). The state monopolizes land and buisness. When TD can make it then it will be privataized. As ethiopians we mus oppose this regardless of which killil we belong. Otherwise we shouldnt forget what happened to derg.

So tplf give power to Ethiopians and you work for your interprises. If every killil has euqll access like tigray, then imagine what should have bcome of Gojam, Arsi, Wolloga, Gondar, Gambella etc.

It is not let for tplf. Use your condom EPRDF to take over the power for real. It is not difficult to live without courrupion. Infcat it is healthy for us and a cure for our children.

Ahya ,what the hell are you talking about ,moron kehadi Banda .Your leba master and his evil regime will never let internet functioning freely as you and all your dedeb bros and bandas are here and there spreading lies and propagandas . FREEDOM FOR ETHIOPIA !!!! MOTE LE LEBA WOYANE KENE BANDAWOTCHU !!!!

Hey Yeha,why u don't tell us u re someone's friends serving for a government officials as a gay servcing both ways who actually needs u.

Teddy, you big mouth and yewore silicha. ante ena meselochih have no contribution for my country. Mar ena ar ematley moron. @ the same time, besew tikesha menor yelemedk ye aemiro diha.Get the hell outta here.

Don't worry about Ethiapia. It has gallant children who can defeat its enemies and their servants (ante ena meselochih)-Leba serteh billa!!

Yeha,

. . . i will not let my child fell down to the mud, and i will make sure that she/he can get up and walk ahead. . .

. . . our telecommunication system will stay the same despite of new advance tech due to overpricing and massive corruptions by your leba cronies and Co. . .

. . .your LEBA REGIME hired another Chinese LEBA COMPANY (ZTE) with proven history of bribery and corruptions (ZTE & Philippines broadband deal). . . ZTE paid millions of dollars to government officials to close the deal. . .

. . .dont tell us diaspora are power hungry, while your LEBA REGIME continue to reign their GREEDINESS to suck us including your grandchildren. . .i tell you again "we will not let our children to stay in the mud". . .never!. . .

. . .IDIOT, without diaspora monthly remittances, there is no single dollar in the pockets of your greedy cronies. . .

. . .STUPID, we are not here to take the power from your lizard like leader, we are here to stop the GREEDINESS and the UGLINESS of your LEBA REGIME. . .

. . .mark my word, these fancy and fake shining things will not dazzle even single poor Ethiopians, and we will not let these lootings will continue to reign in our motherland. . .never!. . .

This upgrade is FAKE!!!!

DEATH TO WOYANE!!!!!

For these of you who are suggesting the ETC should be privatized,let me tell you you r wrong.We all know that 85% of the Ethiopian population is living in the rural area and almost all of these ppl are farmers.so if the goverment sold this company to the private sector,the investor will be consentrated in the expansion of the service in the capital city and may be in the big cities of the country(this happened in Kenya and the goverment is suffering the consequeces).Therefor who will be responsible for the expansion of the telecomunication service in the rural area of the country.This happened in the bank service too.Before I came to the USA in sep. 2007,there were 3 state owned banks and 11 private banks in Ethiopia.But interms of areal location coverage 98% of the country's service is covered by these 3 state owned banks.To give you a specific example AWASH BANK is one of the private companies in Ethiopia,out of the 58 branches that the company has 45 of them are found in ADDIS ABABA and the rest are found in the big cities of the killils(until 2007).Since ethiopia is following limmited free market economy policy you coudn't force any company to give the srvice(any) in the rural area.

Upgrade ???? It is downgrade !
As to my knowledge "ETC" has awarded this project to ZTE with out proper vendor evalution and only thing they asked was financial loan .
ETC has only seen quantity and price ....no quality .
Everytime i make call to a mobile i get strange things like cross talk,calls are not successfull , call drop .......
Now debit is all on us and next generation.

The most useless, and in fact evil, instititution in this now entirely useless country.

. . .so, dont pretend that youre beside us, you are among with them. . .like those parasites that continue sucking us!. . .that even your not yet born grandchildren will pay these "evildoings" of your Leba Regime!!!

SHAME ON YOU!!!

You have raised a valid point, of course to someone with no basic idea of public policy. The Woyane regime has not been clear, as in many other issues, on why they ban the private sector (even the so called domestic nationals only clause as they have for banking sector) in the telecom sector. Listen to any of their person, including their so called economic architects, they just rumble when they are asked to explain the rational for government monopoly of this sector. However, it appears from their mumble that the argument they seem to throw is inline with timo[vistor] - that public ownership is the only way to achieve fair distribution of the telecom sector.

Okay, okay. Is it only the equitable distribution of telecom that is required? Certainly we need a fair distribution ( what ever that fair distribution means) of other services too. We do need the fair distribution of shops, for instance. So if the logic that fair distribution is achievable only through government monopoly is valid, why not ban the private sector's ownership of the retailing of 'onion...' as Bulcha calls it? In short, why not outlaw the private sector, to the extent even unparalleled with Dergue?

This type of justification of state monopoly of telecommunication is not only lame and stupid, but also insulting the intelligence of Ethiopian people. A government has very many policy instrument at its disposal, of which direct ownership of production of goods and services is just one. The other common and even more effective is indirect means, taxation, subsidy, and even licensing. It does not require an economics genus to know that a government, even as incompetent as EPRDF, can design a tax and incentive policy to align the private sector so as to achieve a fairer geographic distribution of services. The UK government did not directly build factories in the less developed regions of the country so as to rectify the unbalanced level of development. They used combination of tax incentives and disincentives to achieve that. And that was the most efficient way of achieving that. So, why can't the Woyanes use a tax incentive and disincentive instead of sustaining that crap institution through government monopoly. They can allow the private sector, but design a tax policy specifically for telecom, saying that: 'for every customer you bring in from the urban sector, you will pay this much extra tax, whereas for extra customer you bring in from the rural sector you will pay this much less tax'. This is the most effective means available to achieve efficiency plus fair geographic distribution.

Woyanes suck
