This people are living in total isolation(darkness)where the world has become globalized and comunication is widely spread.The country is said to have some sort of ancient history(civilization) but it doesn't go any further as the people in that part of the world are not progressive or lack the will because of the culture of self reservation or poor social interaction even with their immediate neighbour(village).people are in to their shells.On contrary if you go to the eastern part of Ethiopia even to the remote villages they would tell you what is going on in the world few hours a go or analyze or speculate on some sort of object they see(encounter).

Some times I think we are still living in era of the dark age. I am looking forward to see each one of us holding hand to hand for better and one Ethiopia.

I am prowed to an ethiopan no mater what.

This video says it all. No matter what political group you belong to or no matter, what clan you belong to, Do not try to ignore the fact that all Ethiopians starve together and experance the worst and the the best together.
I wish the time comes soon to end the suffering of my people!!!

No matter what Ethiopians are the most proud people. I'm proud of them.Yeha

i hope lot of people watch this video, may be some people benefited from this current government but the majority people live as you see, this is fact. the people of tigray they deserve better, not this. to these who talk crab go and see how people live.

I know and have been to most places in Tigray. Can anyone help me locate on google map, where "mechewa" or s'thing like that is in Ethiopia. I really love desolute or out of civilization places where life is simple as well as challenging.

THIS IS LIKE THEY ARE LIVING THREE CENTURIES BACK;
BUT WHO SHOULD BE BLAMED FOR THIS BACKWARDNESS>>> THE ORTHODOX CHURCH!!
YA THE CHURCH IS COLLECTING LOTS OF FORIENGN CURRENCY AND NEVER TEACH ITS FOLLOWERS TO BE READERS AND THINKERS BECAUSE IF THEY DO THAT ITS FOR SURE NO ONE IS TO SERVE THE KESIS AND ABAT NAFSIS.
BUT THE TIME IS NEARING >>>>ISLAM IS MARCHING LIKE A FIRE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.....INSHALLAH

WESELAM

It is mind bugling to see such life in Tigray after 19 years in power to fight poverty and the people are having the same standard of living as 19 years ago.

You see these pictures and you hear Meles Zenawi went to Belgium for medical treatments accompanied 5 armed bodyguards and one personal doctor and one food tester and one personal advisor. Who the hell is this guy to spend such very expensive trips while his people are starving?

More than the looters some of the posters her defending Meles is real mind bugling.

I think the diaspora paid this reporter to descredit melasa gov. How come these people survive the ECONOMIC BOOM the malas gov is recording? This is sheer conspiracy against the first democratic gov in ethiopian history. Don't we have to demonstrate against this reporter.
How many of us visited most part of Ethiopia?
I had a chance to see the following places: todays oromia as a whole with the exception of bale goba; jijiga; harar; dire dawa;afar in part; most part of todays amara region; maqele; tepi.
Soon I wouod be visiting gambela.
What I observed is that THE LIFE ETHIOPIANS IS ALMOST THE SAME. HAND TO MOUTH. ALL ARE POLITE PEOPLE.GUESTS ARE RESPECTED. THEY GOT COMMON ENEMIES_POVERTY; ILLITERACY; TYRANTS; UNGOVERNABLE OR DIFICULT TO TAME ENVIRONMENT...;BACKWARD FARMING SYSTEM... NOTHING TO SET THEM APART. ALL THE PROBLEM THEY ENCOUNTERED COMPELL THEM TO COME TOGETHER.
THOSE OF US WHO VISIT THE CITIES AROUND THE CAPITAL CITY COULD SING GUROWESHEBAYE. BUT THE REALITY IS WHAT YOU SAW IN THIS VIDEO. IT IS SICKENING TO ONE'S BONES.
OUR PROFESSIONALS SHOULD CARY OUT REASERCHES AND COME UP WITH VIABLE POLICY. BUT THAT WOULD BE A DISTANT DREAM IN A COUNTRY WHERE THE LAW OF THE LAND IS NOT RESPECTED. THE GUNS ARE THE LAWS. THEY'RE THE ENGINEERS,DOCTORS, ECONOMISTS...

I think this someplace that we can take a brake from this complicated world of ours !!!!

Nabus ,What is wrong with you this is the most absurd comment I ever heard about the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. If you do really no the history of Orthodox church you don’t say what you said about it. That’s why you Muslim respect your fellow Muslim sisters and mothers because you people are so advanced. Stupid People like you are the one who take our beloved nation to wrong path, if we (Muslim and Christian) are not learning to leave side by side with respect to one another things won’t be good for the future

I guess it is this bull proud that we have about being ancient, cultural bla bla that comes back to haunt us with famine, poverty. I guess religion also has played an obscure role in the all this!! moderate religion, hard work can do more to the nation!

That's true and I don't see the vicinity to end that than damn play a dirty politics.Above all, I do doubt those guys reside ourside and still thumps up to those pity people are really with their minds.Oh! omg, whom can I blame for what I am ? and sorry my people for all this darkness from generation to generations, my heart tears goes down !!!!!

I proud to be Ethiopian and I hope most of us !!!

Nabus, Where you from? Do not expect Jihad to emerge in Ethiopia. Not now! Never! You stupid moron !!!

I really cannot see what the what the motive of the write is. What is new a bout this life in Ethiopia? He must also be a fool to expext every Ethiopian farmer to know aout his Obama and Clinton.

Mr Yeha,
you said "No matter what Ethiopians are the most proud people. I'm proud of them.Yeha "

are you realy?

What about when Ethiopians say we want freedom?
How about When Ethiopians say freedom of speach or free election, when they want treu democracy. Are you still proud of us!

When we want to prosper as nation and want accountability we are bad and we are terorists but when you see our long time old story to be just pee on then you are proud of us. Listen time is hear to acknolodge all Ethiopians are equal not special status. Remember what happen in the past but do not try to take revange start building for fair and united Ethiopia.

nebus, stop trying to start a religious war. LEBA, you must be somali or something trying to enflict violance daym dont you learn anything from this video? Aymero yelhim?

The kush people of Ethiopia was there before u came from south arabia. We will deport to south arabia. Your christian Abysinia is in the north. The south is belong to Muslims, Prostant, Catholic and Waaqafacha.

Nabus!Nabus !Nabus !Nabus ! ARE YOU THERE!?

As you said "ISLAM MIGHT BE MARCHING LIKE A FIRE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY" nowadays. What you didn't know or didn't want to tell us is which ONE_ISLAM UNDER FANATICS OR THE TRADITIONAL ISLAM WE KNOW.
lAST WEEK IN BAGDAD PEOPLE WERE SLAUGHTERED BY PEOPLE WHO CALL THEMSELVES "ISLAM". WEREN'T THE VICTIMS TOO MUSLIMS? DID I MISS SOMETHING?
WHAT'S THE HISTORY OF ISLAM? ISN'T IT FULL OF VIOLENCE? IS IT FREE OF ANY WORLDLY CRIMES? I HOPE MY MUSLIM BROTHERS AND SISTERS UNDERSTAND ME AND DON'T FEEL OFFENDED BY THIS. I KNOW DEDICATED MUSLIMS FOLLOW THEIR QURAN. LIKE ANY OTHER RELIGION ISLAM IS BEING USED BY POLITICIANS.

Nabus!
I suspect that you are not Ethiopian or you have never been to most part of Ethiopia_never went out of the betemengst. I say this after I read what you scribbled at the beginning of your post. Check againg what you posted: "THIS IS LIKE THEY ARE LIVING THREE CENTURIES BACK;
BUT WHO SHOULD BE BLAMED FOR THIS BACKWARDNESS>>> THE ORTHODOX CHURCH!!"
For one who has never been to Ethiopia this would be a misleading. It givies a connotation that Muslims of Ethiopia live a better life and exposed to modern world,which is untrue. Our people live the worst life regardless of their religions.
Another wrong message your post gives is that Islam has contributed to the development of the country in the sphers you are talking.
You told us, "...AND NEVER TEACH ITS FOLLOWERS TO BE READERS AND THINKERS BECAUSE IF THEY DO THAT ITS FOR SURE NO ONE IS TO SERVE THE KESIS AND ABAT NAFSIS."
Who destroyed the churches and its books...?
The ETHIOPIAN ORTODOX TEWAHIDO CHURCH is praised for its contribution of recorded history...Aha! That was amaraziation for the dedebites!What a nonsense!
Expecting religious institutions for expanssion of modern life is an absurd. Most religions preach about life after death For them worldly life is meaningless. Accepting the status quo and praying for the other world is the imperative...
Your call for revolution is nonsense and would benefit no one.
Condemnation of this or that religion would help no one.
That is why religion is left for the public at large. In other words, citizens have the right to worship or follow religion of their choice freely. That's why LAW OF THE LAND respects the rights of citizens in beliving what they want.
Your gov is hindering the development of modern tech in fear of the people. The modern tech enables the people to know more easily and effectivly about the planet they live on.
Science is revealing the secretes of the world more and more and absurdities of the past are being replaced by new views and ideas...
Leave the people whatever religion they want to practice. Fight for the RESPECT OF THE LAW OF THE LAND..since then only then you can practice the religion or belifes you want you can practice freely. You are not free to IMPOSE ANT BELIFE ON NOBODY!
GOOD DAY.

Hi, guys!
on every edge of the world and in every country even USA, Germany, Japan etc. there are civilized and non-civilized or those who don"t like the now called civilization.
for example in penslyvenia in USA,
the left wings group in Germany.
Then leave those Ethiopian who like to live with nature and worrship their God as they do like.

: Nabus

You are challenged,mentally. Wy Do you have to make the report about Islam It has nothing to Do with Islam. You are one of those ignnorant ppl who have never set a foof on Ethiopian soil, but always have negative things to say.

How was it like growing up in Kenya regugee comps??

“The Kingdom of Kush or Cush was an ancient African state centered on the confluences of the Blue Nile, White Nile and River Atbara in what is now the Republic of Sudan.”

So with your ethnic based backward reasoning we should send you to Sudan then right? You know nothing about the great people of Kush, whom historians believe had a lot influence on Egyptian culture when the Kush kingdom was ruling the north and south Egypt. And for your information Kushites were around before Islam or Christianity. Please change your name from Qorqoro, at least it serves a purpose. What is your purpose when you comment?

Nabus, I think personally that you are
a narrow minded brat and illitrate one
too. Who are you to critize the church?
Religion is personal - let it be kept
personal it has got nothing to do with
politics ok dud try to teach yourself if
you can - that is my advise to you and
your likes.

Halifami mengedi (or whatever you call
yourself) you are in the dark too. Do
you know how long it takes to develop a
country? may be you do not because you
would not have written what you wrote if
you knew. It takes time my friend, time
again time!. It is so easy to talk but
to walk the walk, it takes a personality.

to NABUS! why don't you go to Afghan and see the people who follow ISLAM? they all stink and feel full hearted for killing their brothers. You stink just like the belief inside your heart.

I wish i was like one of those deki adey in the video.
Live life natural and simple.

if you ask me we wouldn't have this global warming problems if we all live the way these ppl are living.
