At a guess, China. Natural resources (including agricultural products -- not so "natural", I guess) are what China is getting in return for its carefully selective but large and wide-spread investment. Googling a bit: This article doesn't clarify who the investors are, but it does also/further describe the situation: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/apr/14/ethiopia-villagisation-violence-land-grab https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/apr/14/ethiopia-villa... I find it more than a bit... "ironic", that "Western" concerns are pushing "communes" -- which sound more than a bit like "communism", but appear to have a different construction, here; people aren't left on the land but are told to form "communes", um... somewhere else. But, they are pushing this "commune-ism" to the same ultimate effect: Pursuing their own interests, while screwing the people affected.

Again, talk of a "Master Plan" but not of who and what, ultimately, is behind it. Ethiopia has been pursuing a lot of tech to control and monitor media and Internet access. For some years, now. To my limited knowledge, they were one of the first/leaders in African states doing so. Sound kind of familiar?
