The biggest obstacle to the advancement of technology in Ethiopia is Meles Zenawi and his vampire regime. For example, even Somalia, which doesn’t have a functioning government, has a much better mobile phone service than Ethiopia. The Woyanne regime has made it illegal to own and operate an Internet service. The private sector is blocked from entering the telecommunication industry. Every major industry in Ethiopia is dominated by Woyanne-owned mega corporations (vampires) that are sucking Ethiopia’s life blood, with the collaboration of the World Bank, IMF and other poverty-monger international institutions.

Developing States Must Foster Technology – Meles
The Daily Monitor (Addis Ababa)
Prime Minister Dictator Meles Zenawi has emphasized the need for governments in Africa and in other developing regions to create and develop market systems backed by appropriate technology.
In his lecture presented as part of the “African Economic and Business Summit”, Meles said low-level of technological development has been one of the major factors hampering the economies of African countries. [Meles the warlord himself is ‘hampering’ the Ethiopian and the Horn of Africa economy].
The Premier thief said the technology markets exist and operate if only governments actively and effectively intervene in such processes.
“There is no development without technological development. There cannot be a free and competitive market in the technology market because every product is unique,” Meles told the audience. (It must be a punishment for the audience to have to listen to this guy).
In the absence of such intervention, he said, there can be no technological development and hence “non-development”. (Woyanne intervention is preventing technological development in Ethiopia).
“This is the case everywhere and indeed developing countries suffer even deeper problems in technology market because of low-level of accumulative knowledge,” Meles (who expelled over 40 Addis Ababa University professors) explained.
The Prime Minister Woyanne warlord described such a situation as a “vicious circle” developing countries are caught in to date.
His paper gave an in-depth analysis of the ramifications of technological advancement or the lack of it on overall economic development of countries and their capabilities to harness global markets.
“Developing countries accumulate technological capabilities primarily through adoption and adaptation of technologies already discovered by developed countries,” he underscored.
As one of the setbacks of such processes of adoption and adaptation, he cited the costs of time and money spent on research as those who want to embark on it “will have to carry out extensive search for the best awareness and the best suppliers of the technologies”.
“Once the technology has been bought, the company and its personnel will have to learn to use it properly through learning by doing.” “This is an extensive process (of) making mistakes and learning from them,” he said.
Those who adopt or adapt any such technology, he said, will have no patent right over it. “Sooner or later, others will acquire the same technology without going through the same process by simply poaching employees of the pioneer company.” “From the point of view of the pioneer company, however, it forces the cost of introducing the technology and competes with those who copy from it without carrying the cost in time and money.” Because of “the unique nature of market failure they face”, developing countries have been intervening in technological markets even more than developed ones, Meles (the vote thief) observed.

The TPLF guerrilla leader who came to power by default preaching to foster technology is insane. This is a tyrant leader who is monitoring, scrutinizing and if needed shutting dawn cyber and digital communications which are vital for the flow of information in any society.
Thanks Elias. Ethiopia under Meles Zenawi doesn’t even have what war torn Somalia have.
I get calls out of Somalia with clear crisp sounds from families. Mr. Zenawi’s telephones don’t even work, if they connect not for too long you hear all sorts of noises then disconnect you. The cell-phone are one huge joke, let alone considering it.
Prove me wrong! Somalis have better, advanced mobile phones a lot cheaper than Mr. Zenawi’s Mekele technos.
Please Aduuwa little dirty boy! don’t speak about technology nor economy, you’ve brought none to Ethiopia. In fact, the phones Haile Selassie built 100 years ago, were corrupted, bugged by your agents to disfunctional stage. Meles shut your stinky mouth up and look for escape. Useless of melata midget!
so how the hell the primitive from tigray can bring new technology unless the educated ppls took the lead and open the contry in a responsible manner. We have the tigry primitives for the past 15 years and we are going backwards and even to our surprise only today they understand the need for technolgy.
its obivous that woyanne wants to take the country backward. which makes it very sad every single day.
Why is Ethiopia still lagging behind the developed and the developing countries in modern technology? What are modern technologies? They are too many to describe them here; however, man-made inventions from the vacuum cleaners to the washing machines to the automobiles to the airplanes to the radios to the televisions to the electric typewriters to the computers to the Internets to the telephones to the iphones to the mobile phones and to the many technological wonders of the world are modern technologies. Which countries are benefiting from these man-made miracles of our time? Most countries are benefiting from these technological wonders but Ethiopia whose people have no the privileges to invent or use the already existing technologies.
The Ethiopian young students always want to learn, to invent, and use modern technology the way they want; however, they do not have technologically advanced professors to guide them, to teach tem, and to persuade them to continue to develop their skills in modern technology because those well-educated and well-qualified Ethiopian professors have been expelled from the country or sent to jail to die there with their indispensable knowledge, for expressing their political opinions to the Woyanne regime. Some of the other Ethiopians in diaspora are banned from going back to their country and teach the Ethiopian students modern technology.
The common people of Ethiopia are still using the tools their ancestors had used thousands of years ago, tools such as machid, gejmo, metrebia, mekoferia, ankasie, maresha, and other Stone Age materials. To purchase those old tools, some Ethiopian people have to travel on the back of their mules or horses or donkeys miles to an open air market. Once they arrive at the market, they have to haggle for the cheaper price on those tools because the price of each tool is fixed arbitrary by the owners of the tools – the antheregna, Kaila, or bretketkach. The inventors of these tools are always overlooked by the Ethiopian society which pride itself by having no relations with such inventors – the antheregna or the bretketkach or the Kaila. Now, however, many Ethiopians die or want to associate themselves with electricians, engineers, carpenters, technicians, mechanics, computer programmers, and many other inventors of modern technology. In the past most Ethiopians hated skilled people in art, in bretkitketa, in shehlasira and in korbatmefak; thanks to the Woyanne regime, many Ethiopians are still living in the past; they do not have electricity, and they live in the dark; they do not have running water in their homes; they have to travel to the river to fetch some. They do not have modern schools near by where they could send their children to learn modern education as opposed to the traditional educational system.
How backward is Ethiopia in modern technology? Very, very backward! So far, the country has not even invented merfie – a sawing needle; there are still many people in Ethiopia who do not have watch to tell the exact time; during the day time they tell the time by simply measuring their shadows, and during the night, they tell the time when the rooster crows; they do not have clocks on their walls; their shadows and the rooster are their clocks.
Lack of modern technology, the Woyanne regime is unable to use the minerals hidden underground in several places in Ethiopia, waiting to be sold to a foreign company to discover them and use them with little benefits to the Ethiopian people. At the same time, we see Woyanne borrowing millions of money to buy sophisticated modern weapons instead of buying iphones and mobile phones and computers for the young Ethiopian students to enhance their learning in modern technology. Indeed, Ethiopia is very backward in modern technology, and the Woyanne regime has no clue how to change the old tools into handy modern tools so that the people of Ethiopia could be able to compete with the other technologically developing countries, such as Somalia.
Dear Pls,
Woyanne has already taken the country almost 20 years backwards in modern technology and forwards on spying on us by using modern technology.
