Ethiopia lacks good trade system and ethical merchants. Trading is labeled as robbing or stealing. But ethical traders are good service providers, They make profit by satisfying the need to customers. Ato Tewodros you were supposed to mention illegal association like "EPDRF supporters merchants union". Political parties are also traders. All EPDRF coalition parties have the so called endowment companies. These companies should be transferred unconditionally to the people on the behalf of whom they are operating. The nation will not be free from corruption, unless these grand corrupt companies are transformed to legitimate public share companies. Hording is one tradition business practices. The monopoly emerged because of these companies enslaved the business communities.
