    The rep/elder cannot vote against his village. That is the trick.

    Please explain to me how one clan elder represent the diverse views of all his clansmen? As with all the communities across the world, if a section of the village is impressed by candidate A and the remaining people are in favour of candidates B, C, D, etc, how will one elder reconcile all those differing views? 


  2. I can understand spending money on the madax dhaqameed and the other power brokers in Garowe and elsewhere but what will the ordinary man and woman in Puntland gain from this horse trading? They can neither vote in this "election" process nor have any other say in this matter, do they? How will the cash being spent in this political market trickling down to the small man in the villages? 


  3. The critics here either have amnesia or are guilty of intellectual laziness for what you have proposed is nothing more than what we have already experimented and saw utterly fail. 

    Haatu's feudalism might have been a good solution few centuries ago but today it is part and parcel of the clannish problems ravaging our society. Puntland and Somaliland are no role models. 

    Galbeedi's "benevolent dictatorship" is of no use as we have seen it in our recent past. Siyaad Barre; despite his crimes was initially probably the most benevolent dictator in Africa. Although he was guilty of cruelty and in the later part of his reign divide and rule policy, he cannot be accused of the level of corruption and incompetence we see today. 

    Tillamook's federalism is undefined. The one we now have on paper in the South is already failing before it is even implemented. What kind of federal system we want? How to share power among rival clans both in the federal level and in the state level? How to bring accountability and transparency to the system where there is so much competing interests? How to give real power to the electorate? How to bring the corrupt and evil among our politicians to justice? How to give justice to the oppressed? (the feudal clan system fails them). How to empower the minorities? All these questions and many more other serious issues of contention need answers. The Swiss model although not perfect provides solutions to many of the issues we are struggling with. If you guys don't think the Swiss model is suitable for our society, please explain to us how and why it is unsuitable. 

     

     

     


  4. Holac, imagine a nation with no president or prime minister but with a several executive Committee members with equal powers and a rotating chairmanship governing the country. A Parliament directly elected by the people and whose members can be sacked by the electorate overseeing the decisions of the executive Committee!! 18 Federal States with their own directly elected governments and with no presidents running everything from taxation to health care, education, justice, and social security spending. Justice system where the courts select the jury from the local communities. 

    I don't know why the Somali people are so incapable of at least learning from others who are better than us at doing great things. The Chinese learn from the West and they are not ashamed of it. Are we better than the Chinese?

    maakhiri, I was referring to the CIA openly admitting that MBS is the culprit. What does that mean for the young Prince?

    Why should Prince Bin Salman care what the Americans think or know? Indeed if I were the Prince I would declare that I was behind the execution and that I would gladly eliminate anyone who dares oppose my rule. I would have also made sure the Saudi society is fully aware of what happened in Turkey 😎

    The shameless secessionist have missed this bow humiliation to Xabashis, which hadn't happened for half a year. Saf sidee ugu jiraan ayaa igu daran, sida ardey kindergarten camal ah. Such a brazen ignominy. Dhurwaa and his likes are agitating for one.

    Waaryaa dadkan aad ku khafiiftay waa dad xor ah maaha dad Ethiopia maamusho sida Koonfur Galbeed. Waxba meeshan hala wareegin sawirka nin hindhiso la yar jeestay waa good manners 😁

    When will Reer Ingiriiska hurdada ka kici doonaan and send one to House of Commons? Also Reer Australia.

    Iswiidhan even has a Soomaali sister elected to their national assembly, Riksdag.

    Somalis like most Muslims in Britain are infamous for their lack of interest in politics. Those like me who vote occasionally, cast our ballot for whoever the Labour Party sends our way. A notorious Zionist who used to represent my ward in the Houses of Parliament had a habit of knocking on my door whenever the general election comes and then used to justify his lobbying for Israel to me!!! To get Labour elected, I had to vote for him.

    Reer Minnesota has done us proud.

    It's worthy others have been elected to school boards among other things. These are positions that might seem insignificant in terms of political power but they are important to locals.

    Indeed school boards are important positions which affect the future of our kids, kudos to reer Minnesota.

    Dude, have you ever been a president?  He has no time to post or log into any social media site.  That is why I am undertaking that responsibility for him.  

    I don't have to be a president to be buried under a mountain of time consuming workload, but humans being what they are always find opportunities and excuses to scape the pressures of daily life. I don't think I can accept Abtigiis has bigger responsibilities or more pressing duties than the mad man in the White House who is always on Twitter daily.

    Simple, really. For, firstly, you start up by treating their whole arguments with nothing less than contempt.

    Secondly, you do the opposite of every political and diplomatic move they make.

    Thirdly, on any issue that they hold dear, you see to it to nullify it from your end and make sure you give no concession on that.

    Fourth, you make sure any military moves they make to your side of the border they gets to be crush before their design on you even gets any further underway, like we are doing it nowadays to the Pirate-land's cowardly ninnies of Somalia.

    Fifth, you hold on to your independence as a ground that is non-negotiable, come hell or high water.

    And, finally, every tom-dick-and-harry, from the international community (IC) who ever lands in your territory must be made aware that you are Somaliland, right or wrong. Not the wretched and failed state of Somalia, that seems to be governed by a collection of a hired-mercenaries from Africa.

    And you further impress upon them that your "liberty" was hard won with the copious blood of your sons. And it took at least a decade of a duration to achieve it.

    Moreover, you inform them that you are more than happy, nay, eager, to start a fresh war in the horn-of-Africa (HoA) region, if these collection of hired political stooges in Somalia that are under the tutelage of the African's colonization scheme are so much minded to get another war going on again before they will accept an independent Somaliland of her own right.

    This is how you deal with eternally politically failed folks of the Koonfuria and their self-serving conceit.

    Got it now, mate?

    You forgot another important policy!! 

    6: You become the best friend of every adversary they have in the international community 😎

    • Haha - That was funny. You made me laugh! 2

    Aar Holac.. we will have him host a SOL live session.. wait we don't have that option here.  Follow the president on Facebook ninyahow. There..you can ask all questions. Be sure to start your question with a "SOL dhankeedaan ka socdaa". :D :D

    He doesn't need to be in a live session to answer the questions that our Halac wants to ask him. All he needs to do is log in to his SOL account at his convenience and defend himself just like the way he used to do it. Well that is if he has nothing to hide from SOL 😊
