Addis Ababa is starting to look reaaaaally good

[Barkhadle1520]

Why should I be jealous of them, let me guess you are a lander who’s glazing his masters

See, cant have a normal conversation with you people, youre profoundly mentally ill

This is why youre still begging for paved roads while they're building skyscrapers, lock in abdi

Yea I know lol. Typical of a lot of SSA countries. Step outside of the holy capitol of the kingdom and you'll think you arrived in Slums, India.

Gambela being one of the last regions to be conquered by Ethiopia and having the richest people (minus cities ofc) is really funny

Kinda weird how you never hear about them tho, I've never ever seen a single Gambella city or town

I just looked it up and its probably because most of them are still rural, their capital city is well planned but nearly empty

I’m not a self hating weirdo like you, 600k people died in the the Tigray war, about 100k dead in the Amhara conflict, but but Ethiopia is building shiny skyscrapers and roads

Whats crazy is that even the really fancy buildings in the expensive neighborhoods have problems with water and electricity.

Given the uhh genre of most Ethiopia based news I think that is a good thing!

Also the reason why they seem to be more well off is because there is no wars there, there is no big ethnic or religious disputes there, the oppressive Addis gov does not really care about them (besides the occasional kidnaping during wartime).

All of this means that their pastoralists have nothing stopping them from increasing their herds, the farmer has nothing stopping him from increasing his yields, the merchant has nothing stopping his sales.

This stability is the bedrock to everything, compare this to other regions that have to reset their development every 5-10 years.

So you believe the Somali region is behind the Gambela region, you guys are easy to fall for misinformation

I actually believe you cause I seen plenty of videos of Khaleejis going on vacation there

More tourism will have a bad impact on the harami industry there

The city looks nice, built up, and modern, but I’m not so sure about the people…

Most the poor people dont work or come to the nice places so it should be good, Ive seen vids of addis cops kicking some homeless dude out of a park

There’s lots of homeless people and beggars and most of them are children and women. I’d see a bunch of women dragging around 3-6 children at a time and I’d always wonder where tf their fathers went… There was open sewers all around the streets of Bole and that’s where they would sleep at night. This was 10 years ago, so I wonder what it’s like now
