Politically if Awdalites play their cards very well - which I doubt - they can make the somaliland agenda a null hypothesis or they can make it function properly. i agree 100% coofeoow.. awdalities form an integral part of somaliland and without their approval the recognition project will cease to exist.

LOL.

Shabeelada hoose has that classic ephemeral somali look.

BARI has a medical condition, i think. look at her jealously eyeing up the throne, she was forced down from LOL.

you haven't answered the question dee Juxa.

Apo, modernity doesnt necessarily equate to progress in the physical and human form both. things always remain the same but the only thing that changes is time. Africa and Somaliland must be able to self-evaluate, reflect and begin the changes they feel necessary to get them to their chosen trajectory. we cannot surely expect to impose prescribed doctrines, empty rhetoric and use the so-called 'one gloves fits all hands' analogy dee and see dramatic results so soon. buzz words are an attempt by post-modernist so called experts to explain reality. i'm a little shocked and quite frankly disappointed to see someone whom i'm consider as a close and indeed personal friend to use such terms, without context, without purpose and used wholly across the board.

apparently this building was only built by two chinese workers. its impressive inside too.

new immigration HQ. opened last week.

the famous marwel hotel.

from airport road towards town.

a new house on my road.

Apo, do you mean a new ideology? and i cannot see how this can extend to an entire continent.

no longer so dearest JUXA, you came to hargeisa and haven't bothered to get in contact with me. that little IBZ is deliberately ruining my sharaf with her evil whispers and whatever you?

Apo, i was shocked to say the least walahi....the show was organised by the daughters of the legendary cumar dhule....but the blame was not put on the 'organisers' but some sly middlemen whose intention it was to purposely destroy the sharaf of 'Abdi'. even at the very top, it seems that the mistrust, suspicious tendencies and lack of trust in anyone or anything is dangerously malignant. i'm really affected by the broken social fabric in somaliland, particularly after my recent realisation, that the key to progress is stable social relations and belief in authority.

charity is important. good luck Narniah.

''abdi'' as he insisted on being called is really Great. this man is conscious of the role artists play in the rehabilitation of a post-conflict society. he informed me that artists have always played a non-partisan role in society - they care not for the usual spiel of tribe, clan and qabil. he's very sociable. at around 7:15pm, we were watching SLNTV and a rather poorly orchestrated advert came on advertising a show with Abdi as the headlining act and apparently, unbeknownst to Abdi and his entourage, this was transmitted without his and their consent. but, of course, being the socially responsible artist, probably the last of his generation, he quick left as he didn't want to disappoint his expectant fans. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.

^what a pleasant surprise to see even Narniah here. i know we've had our difference in the past but i'm glad you were able to overcome them lol. as for your question, i think it means nonsense. ------ today was awesome. i had a date. i even wore my khamis and that yassar arafat thing. it wasn't the most pleasant of dates and i don't think i'll be seeing her again. Narniah, perhaps you can shed light on these matters as you've previously been successful.

you probably got married in 1997! why does the world end for women when they get married?
