^Does a country need to be organised to deserve recognition? Waar SL is not far off some GCC countries in terms of chaos at govnt offices and lack of procedures in general.

Ramadan kareem all (a full week early)

Xiin, You’ve used SL’s pirate prison as an excuse for the pirates when discussing the hijacked SL fuel. Two questions: 1. Are you serious? 2. Are you condoning the act or just saying you understand? Ps claiming Somalia (or PL) has the power on the piracy issue because of such acts only highlights the insecurity in Somalia/PL and how it is not likely to change anytime soon. In other words, you’re corroborating one of SL’s salient points with regards to breaking away. Pps Stop trying to make this incident seem like SL had it coming and worry about the ramifications it will have for ordinary people who will inivitably experience higher fuel and food prices as a result (in SL AND PL). The importers of fuel and food will now factor in an additional risk. Ppps do I detect a hint of acceptance towards piracy?

Djibouti is going nowhere fast. The airport remains the same dilapidated building without air conditioning I first transferred through in 2000. No change whatsoever. For there to be development it should be easy to get in and out of a country. It is easier getting in and out of Hargaisa and Berbera.

Luis Suarez to be the player of the year!!!

Juxa, maybe but information on which organisations are funding raising, their bank accounts etc would probably be better. Islamic Relief : http://www.islamic-relief.com/Emergencies-And-Appeals/1-63-east-africa-crisis-appeal.aspx Muslim Aid: http://www.muslimaid.org/index.php/get-involved/donate-online The two above are usually very quick in responding to hardship. Donate Now.

Juxa, I need a month of naps. I'm exausted. Ramadan is anticipated 1st of august.......by the astrologists

Does one have to 'show' they're doing their bit? Is simply paying money to Muslim charity organisations (who are fund raising for Somalia) enough?

I wouldn’t say Somalis are rude but just louder than most people and find it difficult to be diplomatic at times. I recently joined a bunch of guys who play footy regularly in a park here. Qaylada meesha ka baxda waa wax lala yaabo. The whole park (and its huge) which has loads of others playing nearby would stop and look when they hear ‘waar Cabdiyow waa ikan’ and ‘waar kasaar meesha’

^thats what I said dee

Afternoon all. Afternoon naps from next week (finish at 2pm)

let me see bal

Did you see this guy JB? Daily Mail has outdone itself

The poor desperate merchants have now arrived in Unionist Somalia, Puntland State to get help from their fellow Somalia Nationals. Help? Waar its their own sons and nephews who robbed them in the first place As you were - keep celebrating your kinsmen's embarrassment.

any feedback on G+ Is it worth the hassle of signing up for?

SL Coast guards (not the Navy) patrol their own waters. Not international waters (or even Omani waters). Your happiness at getting one over on SL is evident but your misplaced clan pride and the condoning of acts of crimes whilst these crimes are being carried out by your own clansmen is something that even a 5 year old would be 'too proud' to demonstrate. Waar isla yaab. PL has been SL's 'spoiler' (does it have any other purpose horta?) but they now have a chance to show they are not dependent on what SL does and has a chance to save face as well as get much needed good PR. Will they take advantage of a bad situation? I doubt it knowing Faroole.

your clan elders are now in Garowe begging, on their knees to Faroole to help and rescue the ship and its cargo.... Indeed it is a proud moment for Puntland. People coming to get what is rightfully theirs after bandits ran off with it is being celebrated by you in twisted nationalistic fever. Is this the image of Puntland today?Are you proud that your kinsmen are known more for modern day banditry than anything else? Is this what the proud reer Bari have been reduced to? Is this what you're celebrating? You have had your moments (riding atop Ethiopian tanks and supporting Yeey's left liver) but this one takes the cake.

The one man PL spin machine that is Duke needs to give us some good news coming out of PL for a change. Saxib, meesha wax ma lagu hayaa (apart from piracy of course)?
