Oakland, CA – Today, the Oakland Institute (OI), in collaboration with the Anywaa Survival Organisation (ASO), released Engineering Ethnic Conflict: The Toll of Ethiopia’s Plantation Development on the Suri People,
the latest in its series of comprehensive investigative reports about
land grabs and forced evictions in Ethiopia. The report uncovers the
truth behind a reported massacre of 30 to 50 Suri people in May 2012
near the 30,000-hectare Malaysian-owned Koka plantation. Based on
extensive fieldwork, Engineering Ethnic Conflict reveals the
destabilizing effects of foreign investment in Southwestern Ethiopia and
examines the role of international aid programs in supporting forced
evictions in the country.

ARDUF Urges Ethiopia to Return Afar Territory or Risk Addis Ababa Djibouti Corridor
November 22, 2014 | Information Desk Afar Revolutionary Democratic Unity Front (ARDUF)
The Afar-Issa conflict
is no longer an encounter about access to grazing lands and water
resources between two related pastoral communities. It is no longer
about the raiding and counter-raiding of animals (camels, cows and
goats) as war booty. It is not even being inflamed between the two
traditional pastoral groups in the Eastern part of Ethiopia known as the
Addis Ababa-Djibouti Corridor. However, it is raging far from home.
The intractable and unmanageable, years-old Afar-Issa conflict is being fought out in social media in a feverish war of words between two Diaspora, namely, the Afar and Issa Diaspora in Western countries (USA, Canada and Australia). The conflict is being fought out on Deutchwelle and VOA Amharic Services. Anyone who has been following recent developments with regard to this conflict would recognise this.

Ethiopia admits problems with ZTE contract: European vendors could benefit as Ethiopia falls out with Chinese firm over mobile network deal.
November 21, 2014 | Total telecom | By Mary Lennighan
Ethiopia is at loggerheads with ZTE over an US$800 million mobile network contract and is working on a 'plan B' involving Europe's big two telecoms vendors.
The country's state-owned incumbent Ethio Telecom split a $1.6 billion 3G and LTE deal between ZTE and Huawei last summer. Now ZTE is at risk of losing a portion of the deal for various reasons, including a disagreement over the cost of upgrading legacy kit, the Ethiopian telecoms minister told Reuters this week.

The Endless Violence against Oromo Nationals Must be Halted
Fear of Torture, HRLHA Press Release
November 18, 2014 | Human Rights League Of The Horn of Africa*Harassment and intimidation through arbitrary arrests, indefinite detentions without trial, kidnappings and disappearances have continued unabated in Ambo and the surrounding areas against peaceful protestors since the crackdowns of April 2014, in which more than 36 Oromos were killed by members of the federal security force.
According to HRLHA correspondents in Ambo, the major target areas of this most recent government-sponsored violence includes Ambo town and the villages of Mida Qagni district in eastern Shewa zone, approximately 25km south of Ambo town. More than 20 Oromos, students, teachers and farmers from different villages were arrested beginning November 11, 2014, until the time of the compilation of this press release. According to HRLHA reporters, the arrests were made following the protest by the people of the area against the sales of their farmland by the federal Government of Ethiopia to the investors.

Cooperation with Regime Hostile to Peoples Against Principles of International Law: [A Statment by Oromo Liberation Front in Support of Report of Amnesty Intrnational on Human Rights Violation Against the Oromo People]
November 10, 2014 | A Statment by Oromo Liberation Front in Support of Report of Amnesty Intrnational on Human Rights Violation Against the Oromo People
In the history of shocking tortures of dictatorial regimes against the peoples ruled under their iron fist, the Ethiopian government cruelty is unparalleled. Since its ascension to power by force in 1991, the Ethiopian government’s records of human rights violations through extraordinary killings, forced disappearances, massive imprisonments, displacements and other means of suppression against the Oromo people is incalculable. The world has repeatedly witnessed that the incumbent regime of Ethiopia is a government that has adopted a policy of ruling by violence, and commit harsh and cruel actions flagrantly.

Oromiyaa: Under the Occupation of Tigrayan Fascist Regime
November 08, 2014 | By LEENJISO HORO* | Source: Gadaa.com
Note: In discussing the crimes that the Abyssinian regimes committed against the Oromo people, some Oromo individuals focus on just one story, one event, one decade or one era. Others take a broader view and try to cover it all, from the past to the present. Here, I only focus on the Tigrayan aspect of fascism as represented by Ras Mikael Sehul in the 18th century, Emperor Yohannes IV in the 19th century and Meles Zenawi in the 21st century. My aim here is to provide a synoptic sketch of the story of Tigrayan People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) fascism, its cruelty, savagery, and the genocide that it has been committing against the Oromo people since it seized political power in the Ethiopian empire in 1991.

Human rights campaigner says African Union should move headquarters out of Ethiopia because of concerns about freedom of expression there
November 05, 2014 | StarTribune | Article by: CHRISTOPHER TORCHIA, Associated Press
JOHANNESBURG —
The African Union should move its headquarters out of Ethiopia because
of concerns about freedom of expression there, an Angolan journalist and
human rights campaigner said.
Journalist Rafael Marques de Morais, who has been jailed and faces numerous legal challenges for his investigative work in Angola, said in Johannesburg on Tuesday night that the African Union is hypocritical for keeping its base in Addis Ababa, the Ethiopian capital. The union represents 53 countries on the continent and says it is committed to transparency and human rights.

Ethiopian and Chinese workers clashed in Huawei’s 3G Network Expansion Project
November 04, 2014 | Dire Tube News
As sources said Ethiopian and Chinese workers who are working on Huawei’s 3G network expansion project in Dire Dawa have clashed. The reason behind the clash is the Ethiopian workers demand for a fair wage for the dangerous job they are engaged in.
“We have to climb and work on high wire poles 45 meters long; but what we are being paid is only 50 birr a day ($2.49) which is unfair and exploitation” one of the Ethiopian workers has said.
The Ethiopian workers have been in a meeting before the clash. According to sources, the clash has erupted when a Chinese worker tried to beat an Ethiopian worker whom he thought to be an organizer of the meeting and the riot.
