		Ethiopia's prime minister has hit out at continuing pressure from international financial organisations to push forward the country's privatisation process.
		Ethiopia and the IMF have been in a state of periodic disagreement since the mid-1990s, when the IMF suspended its lending programme to Ethiopia saying that its economic policies were irresponsible.

		ADDIS ABABA, 25 November 2004 (IRIN) - Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi has announced a five-point plan to try and end the stalemate with Eritrea, saying his country would accept "in principle", the April 2002 ruling of the independent boundary commission that was intended to end hostilities between the two neighbours.
		Describing the unresolved problem between Ethiopia and Eritrea as "ominous", Meles said his new initiative would "strengthen the struggle for peace" and was sparked by "the realisation that Eritrea steadfastly refused to accept earlier attempts to try and resolve the dispute".
		Ethiopia, he added, would allow boundary commission staff to carry out their work to prepare for eventual implementation of the ruling.

		Ethiopia is 1,127,127 km² in size, and is the major portion of the Horn of Africa, which is the eastern-most part of the African landmass.
		After the 1974 revolution, the economy of Ethiopia was run as a socialist economy: strong state controls were implemented, and a large part of the economy was transferred to the public sector, including most modern industry and large-scale commercial agriculture, all agricultural land and urban rental property, and all financial institutions.
		Islam in Ethiopia dates back almost to the founding of the religion; in 616, a band of Muslims was counseled by the Prophet Muhammad to escape persecution in Mecca and travel to Abyssinia, which was ruled by, in the Prophet's estimation, a pious Christian king.

	Ethiopia: A Failed State
		The recent much-talked-about engagement of the Prime Minister of Ethiopia with various segments of civil society, including opposition parties and the country’s institutions of higher learning, was interpreted by many as a positive direction in resolving the multifaceted problems facing our country’s governance.
		The contemptuous nature of the dialogue between the Prime Minister and the powerless representatives of civil society shows that the only recourse available for redemption in contemporary Ethiopia lies outside the realm of dialogue and civic action.
		The Prime Minister’s adamant refusal to listen to criticisms and alternatives to the land and overall property rights regime prevailing in the country is an excellent example of the obstructionist nature of the current state.
