I am sorry to say that PM Meles and his government did it again by the New Anti-Terrorism Proclamation to tighten the noose against his opponents for the coming election 2010. When has it been an act of terror if you criticise your government for wrong doings? I think the situation for Ethiopian people is getting worse.

I think it is time the donor countries show solidarity to the people of Ethiopia by freezing donations and loans until the government of Ethiopia backs down from intimidating opposition and restores the democratic rights of the people to express them selves in any way, Including criticising the government when wrong is done. How else can people be heard by politicians; if not by a peaceful demonstration and through a free media, which is none existent in the country.

A government should be transparent………I doubt it if PM Meles knows what it means.
