Govt workers get maybe 1/6 of that. of course, for a pilot like you....its not enough is it?

Or are you afraid you become even more dark skinned. arafat, i'm worried sitting down and doing no exercise will be dangerous. so i'm made the decision to walk more often. so i walk in the morning and late afternoon when the sun is cool. waar, i'm already very dark.

i cant! i have to keep up appearances! not to mention i have to wait for the sun to go down as i walk to and from thisoffice.

good morning arafat, the easter holiday has been terrible. i think we need to start having christian hols here too. no work but still at the office. anyways, i'm listening to music and watching videos.

horta, why are the vast majority of qurbo's from the UK and mainland europe and the ones from america and other parts of the world never venture out here. thats interesting.....

^ we know the self-imposed exile brothers have no use to this region lol. you on the other hand, NN have potential and should be selected for an interview to come.

^ which govt inaadeer lol? also the number of diaspora should be carefully selected and strictly controlled. i believe there should a select committee that investigates 'returnees' motivates for coming back, only granting those with proven skills, experiences and knowledge. contributing is altruistic and its highly unlikely that diaspora folk are truly interested in contributing 'positively'. the term diaspora has become a dirty term in somaliland becos they are either mentally unstable or here to make a quick buck with limited or positive contributions.

my biggest worry and concern is the number of NGO setting up camp here. NGOs are like vultures and dangerous to our very existance. they make governments redundant and make all attempts to build and develop our countries useless. they spend all allocated funds on flights, security, per diems (DSAs) and conferences/retreats in fancy and expensive hotels. they've infiltrated all sectors of society with their neo-imperial policy often distorting the development discourses for their own purposes. we need to unleash our collective entrepreneurial spirit and trade among each other. and to develop indigenous policies tailored to our needs that counter NGOs dangerous long term effects.

LOL Seriously piss off Alpha, if I want to permanently settle in Somalia there are multiple things I have to take into account, number one being whether the Queen of Queens actually wants to return to begin with . It's all good that I have all these ambitions, but these plans come to a crashing halt if it means a long-distance relationship. I could dump her, but what's the alternative? Running around Hargeisa or Mogadishu chasing poor maids like you LOL, no thanks sxb. My star is rising Alpha, don't worry about the safety-measures I will put in place to safeguard my future empire. Fall back!! adams, my sincere apologies. i had no idea you embraced the sacred and were married. from now on, i suppose i'll have to start treating you different with profound respect and deference. of course, i understand your predicament, you know, with you not been able to make unilateral decisions. keep well my brother!

Good Afternoon!

However I won't create the necessary capital to do anything significant in that time-span, unless I secure novel/comicbook-deals in that limit. The future will tell, I truly hate the future. so much for your writings on we need to reinvent ourselves! what a hypocrite you are! its heartbreaking to see you write this nonsense adams. who do you think you are putting conditions on whether you come here or not! you're clearly not as important as your writing suggest you are! i thought you were visionary and someone with substance but your just a waste of empty space. practice what you preach brother. cheers
