Paragraph text
Ethiopia prohibits domestic NGOs working in certain rights-based areas from receiving more than 10 per cent of their funding from foreign sources. Restrictions on foreign investment for businesses are far less burdensome, perhaps best illustrated by the fact that Ethiopia has seen an astonishing 1,500 per cent increase in foreign direct investment in the past seven years.
