We saw similar stuff in Ethiopia in January as far as China digging in around the globe with huge debt based projects.https://twitter.com/wolfejosh/status/1196954369415143424 …

I'd recommend it. The food is amazing! And cool places to explore outside the city.
@tylercowen seems to have an interest there as well: https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2018/05/will-ethiopia-next-china.html …https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2018/05/microeconomic-guide-travel-including-ethiopia.html …
Yup I read that article at the time of publishing. Did you check out any factories while there?

We went to some fabric markets, but didn't arrange any factory visits. Kind of kicking myself for that. If you do go, let me know. My buddy's family / friends are still all over there and are involved in the government. Could help with connections to factories.

I don't think they're ready. Probably far from it, perhaps with the exception of leather goods. In any case, I'd like to see for myself. Thanks for the offer, may take you up on that.
