"The community has got a better road infrastructure, [...] all communities have electric power, [...] there are clean water facilities installed for the community and also for the projects. Also, the communities are now starting to get income from the tourists. Because [...] a minimum of 1000 or 2000 tourists are coming [every] week [...] around these projects. This generates a big economic transaction for the community," Berhanu Tesfaye elaborated.
"This completely changes the life of the community living on the projects. And this is the general benefit which communities get from these projects," Berhanu Tesfaye said.
"So the Ethiopian government was also planning on its ten-year strategic plan. Of the five economic pillars of the country, one is the tourism sector. So to make Ethiopia a better country for tourism, they are highly focusing on developing every tourism destination in the country," the Wanchi-Dandi's head said.
