我们注意到英、苏、法、意等国的大使馆的面积都很大,有些大得简直就像个大庄园。据当地友人介绍,原因是当时的皇帝一句话,对这些对埃塞友好的大国各划拨一个埃塞“卡沙”面积的土地,供他们建使馆。1971年初,我作为外交部赴埃塞俄比亚建馆小组成员前往埃塞首都亚的斯亚贝巴建立了大使馆。此后我就在大使馆工作至1973年回国,并另调我驻美联络处工作。在埃塞工作期间的一些所见所闻给我增长了不少知识,这些见闻有的属于传说,有的有历史记载,有的属异域风情,多少使我开了眼界。
We have noticed that the embassies in Britain, the Soviet Union, France, Italy and other countries are large in size and some are simply like large estates. According to local friends, the emperor at the time said in a word that he allocated an area of Ethiopia “Kasha” to each of these friendly Powers for the construction of their embassy. In early 1971, I went to Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, to set up an embassy in Ethiopia as a member of the Ethiopian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Since then I have been working in the embassy to return to China in 1973, and another tune my liaison office in the United States. Some of what I saw and heard during my stay in Ethiopia gave me a lot of knowledge. Some of these anecdotes are legends, some have historical records, others have exotic customs.
