Ethiopia's ambassador to India Demeke Atnafu spoke at an Indian event that brought together 110 business leaders from various industries. The diplomat urged companies in the South Asian country to invest in Ethiopia. This is reported by ENA.
The ambassador listed the factors that ensure the economic potential of the state he represented: abundant labour, cheap electricity and water, natural resources and a favourable financial climate. In addition, he pointed out the potential of Ethiopia's agriculture and processing industries, as well as the mining and tourism sectors.
