Above all it is being built completely by Eritreans for Eritreans. Eritrea talk the talk, and walk the walk. This is really very bad example for those who are waiting for others to come and save them.

Yes, that is very true many dams have been built by our Warsay Yikealo programs. Now, this is not counting the existing diga Sembel, May nefHi, Beleza, Adi shieka.
After independence, here is a list of the major once that were built, again by Eritrean sweat and know how:
፩ይቲ ዲጋ ከርከበት
፪ይቲ ዲጋ ባደሚት
፫ይቲ ዲጋ ገርሰት
፬ይቲ ዲጋ ዓሊግድር
፭ይቲ ዲጋ ፋንኮ ራዊ
፮ይቲ ዲጋ ፋንኮ ጽሙእ
፯ይቲ ዲጋ ሰመሞ
፰ይቲ ዲጋ ጋሕተላይ
፱ይቲ ዲጋ ምስላም (ገርገረራ)
፲ይቲ ዲጋ ጠቐራ (ዓዲ ሓሎ)
and ዲጋ ተኮር that was built by the Koreans.

all Eritrean are stupid dumb or what kind of dam they r talking .. not all dam are equal Ethiopian dam called hydro dam big different then reservoir dam... hydro dam u can generate hydro or power but dam only keep the water as the name suggested reservoir dam. in Ethiopia we have a lot of reservoir dam and water channel 100 km length only one sugar project have their own reservoir dam.. community have reservoir dam they r in 1000 of them .. so please please dont compere your small dam with our hydro dam.. even one hydro dam that generate only 300mw not big enough we r building 20 time the size of one 300 mw dam ... u r not talking about Amhara u r talking about golden rule that ended two years ago.. so dont embarrass yourself by showing your ኩሬ

DAM Constructions, Road Constructions and Housing Constructions would have been achieved more efficiently and built professionally by allowing Eritrean Private Construction Companies that existed right after Independence to bid for the projects.
In Eritrea the dictator Isayas controls everything - he is an Engineer, a Teacher, an Economist, a Doctor, a Farmer (some of his cadres/trolls call him ዓቄታይ in reference to a Peasant). He is everything and he is everywhere.
No one knows how much Capital (Money+man hours) spent to build these Dams. No Accountability. Remember the Massawa Airport Project.
The government's job should be to Institute Right Policies and Implement them transparently to prevent corruption; not with Stalin Like leadership of Isayas.

Can you see the fruit of Gahtelay dam? A lake in-between the mountains is already forming. I took this picture far away up around Dongolo, a few weeks ago. (

And It is impossible when you have Stalin Like leadership of Isayas in Eritrea.
