Information on what Western calendar date corresponds to the Ethiopian calendar date of 30/02/1987 [ETH24354.E]

In a 2 July 1996 telephone interview, an official at the Ethiopian Association in Toronto calculated that the Ethiopian calendar date of 30/02/1987 corresponded to the Gregorian (Western) calendar date of 10 November 1994. This conversion date was corroborated in a 3 July 1996 telephone interview with an official at the Ethiopian Community Association of Ottawa-Carleton.
