  1. Andargachew Tsige presented his proposal freely as a true Ethiopia. However, the fact that his article being sold for $30.0 may indicate the following

    a) we in diaspora includng my self have failed to fax or send as e-mail attachment the article to people at home have access to the internet so that they can print and share the article freely for million in need.

    b)In a country where 80% of the population cant affor $30 Birr lunch but can afford sparing his/her monthy spending on to purchase and read such article is a clear indication of the Ethiopian people to come out of TPLF tyranny once and for all

    God Bless Ethiopia

  3. 30 birrs? I hope that the writer will get some returns. I have read the article it deserves to be read but from there sell it 30 birrs when some books in Ethiopia sell for only 10 is a bit exessive and only possible in Ethiopia because of the restrictions.

  4. I had loaded the paper two weeks ago and read it,it is good. But I have some reservations. Mr. Yared had also contributed a nice paper in July 2007. However, Andargachew did not say any word concerning the case believed to be the cause for the split of CUD into several fragments or factions. I wish Ethiopians in Diaspora would develop incisive writing focusing on the burning issue the people are seeking answers for the dilemma.
    thank you

  5. Andargachew’s article is good. However, he needs to clarify his position on what needs to be done. How is it possible to operate as a peaceful movement in Ethiopia without being registered?
