Dear Ethiopian compatriots all over the world:
On Behalf of our members, I’m sending this New Year's message to wish a happy New Year to all.
As you all know, 2010, like all other previous years was a year of sadness for most Ethiopians. The violation of human rights continued unabated, we witnessed a sham and shameful election, the environmental degradation and land grab accelerated with a lightening speed. The Health and Education system of our people has collapsed beyond repair, and the social interaction among Ethiopians is jeopardized immensely. Yes, the release of prominent Ethiopian politician Ms. Birtukan Midekssa was a victory for all human rights activists and to all those who become voice for the voiceless.
Today more than any other time in the history of our Ethiopia, the existence of our beloved motherland is in question. Now more than ever, we should continue the struggle for Respect of Human Rights and democracy, hand and glove together as one people, regardless of our ethnic, religious and political differences.
I pray and wish the year 2011, to bring Unity, Peace and Democracy to our country and people.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
