		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve said it before. I say it again. Is it OK that there are more ethiopian doctors in US than in Ethiopia? Is it OK that the brain-drain seriously is slowing down the development of a country that really needs to develop? I say NO. Almost all young people I meet desperately want to leave [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=belikke.wordpress.com&amp;blog=5802000&amp;post=508&amp;subd=belikke&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
