Eyasped is brilliant person. He understands opinions and realities whereas Mulugeta simply strives to please the Unitarians though he is from Tigray. Thanks, Eyasped for your extraordinary contributions .
I would like to thanks the Coalition of Ethiopian civil society organization for Election ( CECOE) and panelist for organizing and presenting their work on this panel discussion. Both the panelist and the participants were fantastic.Both were presented their ideas clearly with simple language, but Eyasped deserves my special appreciation. I like the way he presented his work and responded to questions from the audience.
Reshid Abdi summarized the main points very well. He also asked valid questions. He is Somali and he didn’t even show them, he is from there. Good job!
As always I am amazed by Eyasped and in my opinion except few participants the others are not even understood what the panelists present so for the future you have to consider this
Most of politicians are readers but Eyasped is a good reader and knowlegable and speaks on truth on the ground .. ethiopia has 98 ethnic groups ... the best solution for sustainable peace in Ethiopia is to clebrate the difference .. abyssinia influnece is dead end ..we must accept the new face of Ethiopia !
I think I was a bit late to hear this very interesting and educational discussions. The discussion was quite interesting to me that I did watch and carefully listen the presentations made by the persons- Muligeta and Eyasped, and also to the opinions and questions raised by the people on the floor. After watching the debate and the questions/suggestions/opinions given from the young people on the floor, I felt that Ethiopia does indeed has young brilliant people who will be its asset to resolve the chaos that the Ethiopian peoples found themselves for so long both in the past and in the present. Having said that, allow me to express myself how I perceived both speakers- Muligeta and Eyasped: - Eyasped: Your presentation was very very educational for the Ethiopians and relevant to the purpose of the discussion! Your research, on the technical terms, your knowledge about the subject at the hand from the standpoint of the history of Abyssinia and modern Ethiopia, your courage to address straightforward some of the subjects most people seem to sideway or avoid at all, and the intelligence you demonstrated in handling Muligeta's emotional attacks, even his upset, did testify your true intelligence, sir! So, I feel I would like to say: Thank you for the hard work, the courage and the intelligence you have demonstrated in this discussion. Young brilliant people like you in the country are certainly the asset for Ethiopians to deal with the challenges they found themselves in and adopt a better future for them as a nation. Keep it up!! - Muligeta: I have no problem to hear whatever an individual believes in and express it out. But the problem is that how one expresses his/her point of views and how one treats other peoples' points of views. Does one control his own emotion, understand that his/her own opinions are not absolute, meaning other options/ways may exist, may be addressed by other people, etc.? So, what I observed in Muligeta's presentation was that at the very outset he started his speech not only by attacking Eyasped's points of view but also with a sense of upset. It was so obvious that the person leading the discussion rebuked him. Right? So, Muligeta's incompetency to present something relevant for the purpose of the discussion is evidenced right there! There are a number of other shortcomings he does not seem to understand them in himself. For examples: there is a clear evidence of a constant self-assertion in his speeches, amplifying his own opinions and point of views while trying to belittle the opinions/knowledge or authorities of the others. In the ancient Eastern wisdom, it is said that, "one who is absolutely confident in his opinion/knowledge is a dead man!". Obviously, it does not mean at a physical level. Also, he seems to value too much feelings, which is part of emotional manifestations. He also seems to have difficulties to accept facts as they are, and tries to deny and instead imposes on others forcefully what he thinks is "right" without providing convincing reasons. So, I would like to remind Muligeta (Dr.) what people who have learned life long from life experiences say, which goes like this: 'Arrogance exists where there is self-ignorance while intelligence exists where there is humility.' It implies then that, a thorough self-understanding may not be attainable as the result of higher education at school; much more than that. In fact, most people who operate only at intellectual level are not intelligent but arrogant! Can that explain anything to Muligeta? Otherwise, I really feel that such a discussion is very necessary for the Ethiopians and need to be encouraged to continue even at a wider scale than it is now, because understanding the root cause of their problem, which is mainly political is critical for only then the willing to do something differently can happen. Keep it up! In closing, I would like to leave one question for Eyasped if I may: King Haile Selessie wasn't from Abyssinia as you know. Why then he embraced the Amharization/Abyssiniazation of the rest of the modern Ethiopian regions? Was there a higher authority (a decision-making group, if you will) behind him? If so, who are they, and was it applicable to the kings/Ras prior to Haile Selessie as well? Thank you.
I really appreciate Eyasped for coming up with research-based presentation, but the other guy brought rhetoric which we have been hearing for the past 100 years. Thank you Eyasped for demonstrating an intellectual debate in the forum.
I was eager to listen to the 2nd program for the first time from Ethiopian palatical dialogue. This because of Eyasped. In fact , I also appreciated Dr. Mulugeta. I don't have a word for Eyasped, you are so matured, articulative, and logical . you are my No in this generation. Keep it up bro!!!
I appreciate this true historical fact discussion of the Ethiopian rulers oppressing others and specially the Oromo people to held under their feet it is better to apologize and leave in peace.
I have seen a broad and comprehensive, targeted to the point explanation from Eyasped. It was Excellent I feel sad for the some of participants who don't want to understand the contextual situation of the country from literatures, and they refused to acknowledge the authorities who examine the issue of nation, nationalism and state and identity as well. Nonsense.
Eyasped! Good work, fact explaining nice presentation. Like you said, Neither Tewodros nor Menelik has an intention of building a country we call today Ethiopia, but they wage war on the free and self ruling nations like Oromo, Walayita, Sidama, gurage, Somale, Afar....and so on to only build an empire to get more taxes, to own fertile lands and natural resources only to strength their monarchial power. As of Tewodros, revenge was the only case to conquer Oromos though he didn't succeded. Menelik didn't even conqured those free nations by force, at first they used diplomatic manipulation by sending persons like Gobena Dache to the Oromos ruler, then religion and sorcery. One last fact, it was not even Amharas who conqured and built Ethiopia, truth be told Meneliks soldiers were mostly manipulated Oromos and other nations.
Mulugeta wow great. Most people are not accept the fact in minilik regim. Arsi,harere chelonko,kefa,walita etc peoples are killed for the sake of land and wealth.
I agree with the Somalia brother that asked three important questions and in fact it's also my question are you talking about Abyssinia, real Ethiopia or about the Ethiopia that leading by Prime minister Abiy right now
Eyasped destroyed the emotional loser from the Abyssinian state! I’m very proud of this young man Eyasped! While someone like Eyasped should be a lecturer at that country’s best university, They put ppl like Mulugeta in that position and destroyed the country kkkk The end of the empire is right around the corner so they should better prepare for the new Ethiopia!
You have benefited from that ' empire' which you have shown by writing in geez Fidel without grammar or spelling mistake.weldone endesimih hilm hono alqerem
I think this guy withe colorful skin They just don’t understand unless you have to put them up ⬆️ n every aspect, fallow their religion, the want to be accepted on the top of the food chain
The problem with What Mulugeta says , who got conscious first, then at tat time in our case they inflicted what they learned from their masters to their own fellow Africans, so the problem I have is Instead of condemning white the old monarch did to the minority, there are a lot of Amhara intellectuals they wanted to bring the system, they wanna inflict that pain today how do you address that?
I think Ethiopians are not ready to pay attention for real problem of their country. As far I observed in ethiopia there are group who get its socio-cultura, and political make up in ethiopia's political structure on one hand and also there is a group who is searching whether they are an ethiopian or not. For instance, let us suppose that an afar in Samara wants to apply for job in Ethiopian Telecomunucation, the first question that will pose to this person is since this is Federal Institution hence you should have to know Amharic. Here this answers reflects that an afar person doesn't have share or he/she is not entitled to get opportunity in federal institutions. But none Afar who came from Highland area that can't know Afar culture and language can get job easily without any preconditions. Imagine most of customers those receive service from this institution are Afar community which can't speak amharic. Is it fair that for any person to deprive basic right like job to grow his children in his home. So can we say this Ethiopian National Identity or certain ethnic groups national identity ? Does this kind of national identity gives sense for an afar who lost job in his home? could you imagine an afar who lost job in his home Samara will get job in some where Gonder, Mekelle, Nazeret ? Any way Thank you eyasped.
If you go to the US, UK, Germany, Scandinavian countries wouldn't you be forced to learn their language to get a job and services? We need a common/ national language which is Amharic, you must send your children to get education that would enable them to equally compete anywhere in Ethiopia not just continue with agrarian life style for generations to come.
@@belayteshome5346 so why haven't you developed your language all this year's then? Who stopped you? As for your identity, you still have it no one or government has stopped you from being yourself, so your comment is totally rubbish.
Ethiopia humiliate the otherness, Ethiopia concept is empire of Amhara elites Orthodox intolerant colonization institution therefore, a new country Hass to be formed, have to change the name, should include every single language in religion people treated equal, and religion stay out of politics separation of church and state.
Kkkkkkk. Your ambition to divide Oromiya and make multiple states is futile! Oromoness is transgeography. You will never ever succeed in your vain attempt. We will keep our Oromuma oneness with blood!
