Thought for Today
"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world." by Harriet Tubman


Dear Aiga,
Abductions and killings of Ethiopians living in the vicinity of the border with Eritrea by armed forces of the "strong man in Asmara" are routine. In fact, in many occasions, UNMEE forces have witnessed and protested these direct violations of the so called Algiers agreement. To the surprise of many, there has never been any protests or actions taken by the Ethiopian government to secure its citizens....

The Amharic saying goes “Neger Saisema, meskerem Aytebam”, VIVA-Minilik is no more! Current Affairs has dismissed Viva from admin position. It seems the honey- moon b/n shabia and the Dergist is over.

Diaspora room, famously known as Beny room, was unusually candid, unusually democratic in reassessing their situation and the current state of Diaspora politics. Though its not surprising that such assessment is not taken well by those who are fond of Ere Goraw- jallo politics, it remain to be seen if they will do away with their habit of striping or bestowing Ethiopian citizenship based on a political stand and if such candor is an aberration or real wakening and realization state of Diaspora politics. As one cool headed person pointed out – the fear of Tatibo chika – is always present.

The vanguards in the fight for political civility, the brave people of Ethiopians Forum for Political Civility had also their assessment day – open to criticism on the good and bad side of the room. It is our believe that they would take all the points given and make thier forum stronger, and bring sanity to our political discourse

We think there has to be another alternate to war as a solution.
(Aigaforum 03/15/07): -For the last 10 years or so Ethiopia has tried to reason out with the Eritrean government a peaceful coexistence is the only viable option for the two brotherly people to live in peace. It has even traveled the extra mile to make peace with the Shaibya government after the costly war of 1998-2000. However every gesture and every plan it has forwarded has been met with contempt by the Eritrean government...

Kidnapped Ethiopians and Europeans, Victims of Terrorism
( March 14 ,2007 )
(MFA):-...Undoubtedly, this criminal act is part and parcel of the terrorist activities the Eritrean Government has been undertaking. It will be recalled that the Ethiopian Government has disclosed the terrorist acts committed by the Eritrean Government in different cities and towns in Ethiopia including in Addis Ababa...


Ethiopian-American Artists Make Their Mark
Update on Abducted Foreigners and Ethiopians from Afar, Ethiopia.
(Aigaforum, 03/14/07):- The five foreigners that were abducted and released in Asmara yesterday are due in Addis Ababa in the next day or so. They are in route to Djibouti. The whereabouts of the remaining Ethiopians is till unknown. The Ethiopian government has demanded the unconditional release of the hostages. more

Missing tourist Released
British diplomats or their relatives — were released in Eritrea and had been taken to the British embassy in Asmara, the Eritrean capital...

Ethiopians ask a serious explanation on this! Now that the hostages are safe in Asmara, many Ethiopians and we are sure many foreign Millennium goers want to know what the Ethiopian government will do to curtail future similar acts of terror. This is more problematic to those who would be going to visit the northern region of Tigray. Debre Damo and Geralta areas similar to the Denkalia area is close to the unfortunate country called Eritrea and its terrorist sponsor government. There is no reason the Shaibya government will not repeat the same act on Zalambesa or Rama.

American ambassador responsible for safety, security of Americans
ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia — Walking alongside this quiet and unassuming man, you would hardly know that you are in the presence of an important American diplomat, the United States Ambassador to Ethiopia, Donald Yamamoto

First private radio station inaugurated
Addis Ababa, March 10, 2007 (WIC) – The launching of Fana FM 98.1, the first private FM radio station, will have a significant place in the history of Ethiopian media.
This is a good beginning. Now let the licensing authority expand this chance to include more responsible private commercial owners even if the owners are supporters of the loyal opposition.It is the right thing to do!

Empire State Fund for ORBIS Launched
The Empire State Building has authorized ORBIS to use its name and image to publicize the appeal worldwide. "Last year we treated 1 million people in Ethiopia for eye disease," said Oliver Foot...
We hope Orbis has indeed helped a million Ethiopians in one year! But it would be nice if the Ethiopian Ministry of Health can verify the claim.

20 Students Who Work Hard and Dream Big Win Times Scholarships
(nytimes):-Ms. Erizku, 17, moved here from Ethiopia with her mother and two siblings in 1997, unable to speak English...She has gone on to earn a place in the National Honor Society at DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx, and earn early admission to Princeton University, which she will attend this fall...

Ethiopia keeps booming
afrol News, 9 March - No oil, no precious minerals are driving Ethiopia's economic growth forwards by two digits each year. Hard work, economic reform and investments in its people and infrastructure are showing results...



Kidnap Britons 'seen' in Eritrea
Foreign Minister Seyum says his government does not know who the abductors are....and every body else say the hostages are in Eritrea! May be Eritrea has become a heaven for terrorist because they have no government like Somalia! More reason to be mindful.

What is going on? When will Ethiopia stop being the playing field for the strong man in Asmara? How hard is to say enough is enough to Shaibya? This incident is not an accident; it came at the heels of a historic agreement between western media and Ethiopia to promote the tourist industry. No one is asking for war but why not we call a spade a spade. Not even a single animal moves in and out of Eritrea with out the blessing of Shaibya, Mr. Minister. Playing deaf ear is not working with Shaibya and the public at large. The government image is eroding too dangerously.

Ethiopia’s PM holds talks with IMF
March 8, 2007 (ADDIS ABABA) — The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has said that the economic growth registered in Ethiopia in the past consecutive three years have laid a foundation for similar growth in future.

US adds Eritrea to human rights blacklist
Missing Europeans are in Eritrea - elders
Addis Ababa - The Ethiopian state news agency on Wednesday said that five Europeans and their Ethiopian guides abducted last week in the remote Afar desert were in Eritrea, quoting local elders.

Many Ethiopians expect the Ethiopian government to address this particular incident for it has a huge implication. This cowardice act must be challenged so that it will never be committed again.
