This is system of wearing is unique only in Ethiopia. Please bring back, love it. However the todays, Kaba, I don't like it, trying to be too royalistic instead of simple Kaba, Ethiopia is not egoistic but some designing with too much design on it... even true royals in England have reduced the embroidery. If you have kingdom, yes,. Look at this design it is pure simple and magnificent what the two men on each side and H/Selassie wore. I think the one on the left is Blata Heruy. Let the Liberation Fronts and the ignorant learn than Blata Heruy, H/Selassie did not have forma education and yet, they understood Ethiopia must be in the international area and they focused internationally and spoke 4, 5 languages!!! Language is timely, you have to learn it in order to bring your country forward. It is ok if we all learn ethnic languages but it doesn't do us anything interntionally, it is more important to learn international languages and only ONE common language in the country. Where we are heading is backward, you will affect the countries progress trying to divert the resources towards langagues. First make your country strong economically and politically then you can improve your local languages to be spoken. The ethnic fanatics are doing it backward, as the Amharic saying goes: The monkey said, please pull the thorns from my [deleted] so that I can sit still and pull out the rest of the thorns on my body. The most genius methaphor!
