Mortgage Banking Solutions Needed to
Make More
Homeowners |
|
Dear
Editors,
I read
your editorial headlined, "Is the Real Estate Market
Competitive, Not so Much" [Volume 8 Number 389, October 14,
2007], with interest. The attempt to blame the real estate
companies for the failure to provide adequate housing or be
competitive in building affordable housing for
middle-to-low-income families is misguided, without solving
the basic problem of the mortgage banking system in
Ethiopia. |

"Commission Arrests Senior Officials in Alleged Real
Estate Fraud" [Volume 8, Number 392, November 4,
2007] part of your story has conveyed the impression
that our company, Gift Real Estate Plc, has acquired
land for real estate development in a
non-transparent and dubious manner.

Management of Shell Ethiopia to Profit from Exit |
|
Dear
Editors,
The
management and some senior members of Shell Ethiopia are set
to amass millions of Birr in separation payment when the oil
giant moves out of Ethiopia. This may surprise many of you
given the exorbitant payment each management member is
