The government had launched a tendering process in June for a proposed sale of a 40% stake in the state-owned carrier to private investors, part of the government's broader plan to open up the economy.
\"Given the recent developments and fast-moving macroeconomic changes, both globally and from a country perspective, the government of Ethiopia has chosen to postpone the privatisation process,\" the finance ministry said in a statement.
\"The Government believes that taking time to accommodate the improved macroeconomic situation as well as continually improving the financial performance of Ethio Telecom will result in better value for all the parties involved.\"
The ministry said it was comitted to following through with the privatisation and would at a later date get in touch with those who had expressed interest in its Request for Proposals.
Ethio Telecom posted a 6.7% rise in revenues to 28 billion birr ($550.09 million) in its half year to Dec. 31, with parts of its network crippled by military conflict in the north of the country.
In December, the industry<\/a> regulator Ethiopian Communication Authority<\/a> (ECA, said it had also suspended a tender process for a second telecommunications licence, which it said it would relaunch in the \"near future\".
The Horn of Africa country of roughly 110 million people sold only one of two full-service licences on offer in May.
The winner, a consortium led by Kenya's Safaricom, Vodafone, and Japan's Sumitomo, is in the process of setting up its network ahead of a planned commercial launch next month.
