The housing market in that area is extremely expensive for the average person. You can't buy a house in Addis, in general. What you get is two rooms at the margins that look like a slum, or where the average building looks unfinished but abandoned, unless you're a rich relative to the average person and can afford to live in this little utopia you're presenting. The quality is far below what you could do with the same money in Somaliland. That is just a fact.
Besides, that area is gentrified. It's occupied by officials and elites. There has been controversy because that place was carved out by pushing the people who can't afford it to the margins. It's built on top of the city's denizens.
That part is a glimpse of Addis, and the average person is struggling. If you go where people actually live, the notion that it's better than other cities in looks and quality is total nonsense. That shit is for the diaspora to enjoy and the elites. So if it's of no utility to the average Ethiopian, then clearly it was built dispositionally. A city should build according to its means for its citizens, not splurge on expensive things that make the city look sterile in the center, whereas the life of the city actually happens outside that place, where things are not pretty. That little polished elite pocket is not Addis Ababa, contrary to what many say, and it does not represent improvement either. It's good optics for foreigners and state propagandists.
General infrastructure has improved, and you have some train systems that are interesting, though.

Please stop coping, we get it you're jealous and hate Ethiopia but dont you think it would be wise to praise their development and try to emulate it ?
