Comment on Ethiopia overtakes Colombia as world’s number three coffee producer by Girma H.

Thank you so much for the update. Surely, there is high room to overtake Vietnam soon and later Brazil, because we are not still producing with our optimum capacity. There is more land for expansion of coffee farm and the quality as well, but the same time the other high market oriented sub-sector, spices should also be taken in to consideration as this will again take our position up in the world.
Thank you

It is nice to see something that reperesent the African Union in Addiss but the main issue here is it realy what the African people need right now?or is it just a propaganda that chinese are using to fool the African leaders to gain fertile african land when its own people wait for donations from the west. The arabs, Indians and the chinese are fighting over the African fertile agriculatural land to feed their people when the African poor farmers go hungry.

There is a lot of peopel in China, who needs this Money(USD$200).I think this is give and take.
Haw much USD invest in all parts of the continent and haw much profit they get from this investment?
But Afrikan peopel needs education not building.

Hi HT i understand what you mean, but you have to have a building to talk about what African people most matter as you say like education, health, road, and water etc… Their is one thing i think you missing. this AU building paid by Chaina, i don’t think anyone can say no if someone want to build for free. The only thing i can say is hoping this African leaders can work together for the sake of this poor people things geting hard every where. I wish the cost of this building spent for development. I would like to say something too, as you know we are poor. we need foregin aid until we get on our feet. It doesn’t mean we have to kiss their Ass. it is reality we need help.

Hej, SO what? “…outstanding result…”? may be he did good at his high school, may be not. I don’t know. It is not worth looking at it.
But what ever the case…so, what? because he did good in high school, does it mean he can be a leader of a country? BTW, may be u were an idiot in high school, but that doesn’t mean you are now(if u are a grown up). (no offence)
Do you know why leaders are needed? do you have any idea what it takes to be a leader of a country? let me tell you… first, it is not an outstanding high school result. Pls dont make the same mistake again.
Everyone in a country is entitled to share his/her country’s resources fairly. Unfortunately, we human beings have a problem with sharing. That is where the gap is. We needed someone to mediate us, to be able to correct any variations, to let us live peacefully and harmoniously. Then politicians with different strategies will come forward with policies that can benefit most, if not all of the people who could empower them. Then it is up to the majority of the people to put that someone/a party that has the best interest of the country (i.e. the people) in charge.
Then the question is do we have that leader? Do we have a leader that puts the country’s interest at heart in any decision made? Did we put them in charge or did they claim it?
Let us say you have a bad father and fortunately someone killed your father and that someone got married with your good mother (forcefully). He was supposed to be the man of the house and raise you and your brothers and sisters properly. But after 22 years, you still live with your parents, you are a drug addict, with no manner and conduct, you don’t know who you are, you don’t know which one your culture is and which one is not, in simple terms you are an idiot with no clue. Who do you think made you like that (a clueless idiot)? (no offence)
When anyone talks about Ethiopia, it is not only about the oromo people or amhara people or the tigray people or the afar people or the dire people or the kunama people or any specific region/people. It is about the whole people, the 80+million of us.
I do not imagine we could call a person who enjoys -Destroying once culture and identity; allowing colonization to be started on our own land; killing people; genocide; initiating a conflict of interest among religions, among different races; giving power to people with no competence; being a puppet to the so called 1st world countries; publicly humiliating members of the parliament; lying; cheating… a leader- DO WE?

Always,we have to think deep for our country what is best.some people think some thing behind it when China did or does for Ethiopia or Africa.Canada,Australia,America & other developed countries think business is business.Negative thinking will damage us.I do not have to kiss anyone’s ASS if do other things for myself.business community or Government must hug each other to develop Ethiopia or Africa..please show happy heart for ALL…

This is good news for our coffee producing regions and farmers in Ethiopia. And many thanks to this site for updated information. Lets keep this rank up and work hard to take over Brazil’s position.
