Ethiopia, Djibouti move to cushion food crunch
Ethiopia and Djibouti on Wednesday each announced urgent measures to alleviate the effects of the global food crisis on their populations.

"Ethiopians are light and are also hard-working and they like to fight - and I think that's the reason why they are so good." Haile Gebrselassie remembers listening on his father's radio to events at the Moscow games in 1980, when Miruts Yifter won two gold medals. "I was seven, I had a chance you know to follow his winning. I wanted to be like a Miruts Yifter and my dream was to be like him."
