Yes, her life is a testimonial for the reality of tremendous potential in the youth population of developing nations despite the circumstances surrounding them.
i just saw the photoshoot video and this was next in line. was really amazing to hear your story and what you set out to achieve. its inspiring your journey. congratulations and wishing you the very best abai
Wow! What a great and inspirational talk. For anyone who wants to be a parent to consider adoption, for parents to let children dreams and for all of us to never stop thinking there are possibilities and how a shifting of actions can change the world
Good Job Abai. Very inspiring and true. I know the challenges of starting and running a business in Ethiopia. Bravo again. Wish you much success and Blessings.
I appreciated your perception is changed in to great creative. your products are very important for you and your country Ethiopia for development. thanks with respectfully.
Powerful message and beautifully conveyed. A concept that can transform Africa from being the breadbasket for the rest of the world to being the breadbasket to the rest of the world. Turning to table!
I think of the Beautiful buildings in addis Ababa and the African Union headquarters. I think of the ancient history and civilization of Ethiopia. I think of the beautiful people, cultures and tribes. I think of the obelisk of Axum that was stolen by the Italians and now has been returned. I think of Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia 🇪🇹 defeated the Italians. I think of the news coverage of Ethiopia. I think of Ethiopian Somali war... i think of many things🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹
When I think of Ethiopia, I think of the only African country that was never colonised; a country filled with beautiful people; a country hosting world class athletes...
The narrative that Africa is poor is one that the western colonisers of the past and the present perpetuate, ironically and in fact purposefully, to keep it poor. The African continent is endowed with enormous and almost unlimited natural and human resources. But it is the African peoples who are poor, not their countries. What their former colonisers has looted and what their current colonisers is continuing to plunder from their countries, both in natural and human resources, are what kept them poor. Were it not for the wealth that the west has sucked out of Africa and the rest of the colonised, it would be the west who would be the 3rd world countries. Not those of Africa, West Asia, Asia or those of Latin America.
Abai i still do not no why people still address poverty wrongly If i were to speak about it i will say poverty came as a condition of inheritance It wasnt willing for poeple to be poor but unfortunately they were either born into it or led to it
Still it is easy to blame the west....if Africa luxury product consumers will not value made in Africa products this trend will continue.... however let's not be deterred .
What a self serving talk. There is no link between your overpriced bags to support your lifestyle and poverty and aid. Aid is for those living in poverty. I understand the image of poverty in Ethiopia hurts your luxury brand. Unfortunately that is the reality for the country. Increasingly so now with businesses like you perpetuating the wealth gap. Spare us this lecture.
I wonder what you are doing to contribute to improving what you seem to deem a doomed reality for Ethiopia? If you are doing something then thank you for your part- but why not show support for your fellow Ethiopian who has been gifted with the means to better what she is capable of bettering? If you aren’t actually doing something personally, then I urge you to take a step back and ask yourself why you have a need to spew negativity on someone else’s successful dream. Dream a little man. If you doom Ethiopia and its creative people in your mind, then so it is in your reality forever. you won’t get to enjoy the blessings and beauty that coexist on the other side of the wall you’ve built around you. I see this in a lot of our people who have many bitter opinions but zero ideas for solution. The whole point of this talk is to change perceptions. Here’s your opportunity. “Semāy lete’kema’ch k’irbu newu”.
3:19 - 'There is no major difference in potential; only a difference in circumstances'.
Agreed, when we expect less from developing countries, we actually perpetuate poverty. Great talk!
Michael Spitler indeed
It depends on what you mean by "LESS".
So they lack confidence?
Went to Ethiopia and fell in love with the place. I will be back
I tuned in because she was beautiful. I wasn’t disappointed. She has everything.
So inspiring speech! You are the example of ask not what your Country can do for you but what you can do for your Country!!!
She is wonderful...

In South Africa we call such women "Imbokodo" amandlaa✊✊💯
You South Africans need to stop name calling everyone.

videos like this don't get enough views , only justin bieber's songs or ariana Grande's tour matter , how lame
True Maria Lopez we Africans like to get out of poverty but don't want to discuss serious issues
you are speaking my languge on the issues of productivity vis a vis- who or where it is produced- determines the value.
Wow Amazing Abai, very inspirational!!!
thank you its an eye opener
You are super star Abaiiii
