Ethiopian leader Hailemariam Desalegn elected AU chairman on JANUARY 27, 2013 · in NEWS 11:50 am ADDIS ABABA – Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn took over the post of African Union chairman on Sunday, replacing Benin’s President Thomas Boni Yayi in the one-year post. “It is with a great sense of honour and humility that I accept the chairperson of our union,” Hailemariam told leaders at the AU summit meeting. “I wish to express my heartfelt thanks for the opportunity to serve this half-a-century-old organisation for the next one year.” Yayi, the outgoing AU chair, hugged Hailemariam and said he will “succeed brilliantly in his mission in pushing us forward in our agenda for unity, peace, stability and development of our continent”. Hailemariam takes over at the AU just five months after emerging from being a relatively little known politician to run his nation after the death of his mentor Meles Zenawi. A protege of Meles, Hailemairam has managed an apparently smooth transition with little major change in policy from Meles, who had ruled with an iron fist since toppling dictator Mengistu Haile Mariam in 1991. Hailemariam, a former water engineer, has defied critics who feared instabilty in Ethiopia, taking over leadership of his country in a rare peaceful handover of power for the Horn of Africa nation. Before becoming prime minister, Hailemariam was president of Ethiopia’s Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Region, and was appointed to be deputy prime minister and foreign minister in 2010 after the ruling coalition party’s fourth win, a landslide victory.(AFP)

Jamhuuriyadda Somaliland: Qaran ku Kalsoon Amnigooda January 28th, 2013 Bahal Iga Da’a weynoo Dad cun ahi ma Joogee Kuma didee Hargooloow Ha Igu Tumin Durbaanada Iyo Daasadaha Madhan (Abwaan Hadraawi) Waxaad moodaa in beryahan danbe in dagaal Nafsaani ah lagu soo qaaday Shacbiga reer Somaliland iyada oo sidii caadada u ahaan jirtay cadawga Somaliland ay af-labadii yeedhaan marka ay rajo beenaad yari meel uga soo bidhiiqdo! Yaa Xasuusta demdemtii iyo sawaxanka ka bixi jiray cadawga Somaliland maalmihii ama bilihii u horreeyay ee xilka soomaaliya loo cimaamaday Cali Mahadi, Cabdi qaasim, Cabdilaahi Yuusuf, Iyo Sheekh Sharriif? Eryada ay odhan jireen waxaa ka mid ahaa; Imika ayay u dhamaanaysaa Somaliland! Maxaydun yeelli dawlad baa soomaali u dhalataye, dadkiina soo raaca, imika ayaa idinka oo Ordaya aad iman doontaan…. erayadaas iyo kuwo ka sii xun ayaa badiyaa ka soo yeedhi jiray cadawga Somaliland. Maantana dhawaaqaas mid la mid ah oo caalwaa ah ayaa ka soo burqanaya afka buka ee cadawga Somaliland. Xaqiiqduse waxay tahay oo ay Taariikhdu ka marag kacday in ay Dabayshu ay qaaday kuwii sheeganayay Madaxweynayaasha Soomaaliya, halka ay Somaliland ka tahay Qaran jira oo dhismayay Dhaqaale ahaan, Siyaasad ahaan iyo Millatari ahaanba. Iyada oo Shacbiga reer Somaliland iyo Xukuumadiisuba ay soo dhawaynayaan in shacbiga reer Soomaaliya ay nabadgelyo iyo dawladnimo helaan, hadana dhinacooda markaad eegto wali waxaa ka muuqda inaan caqli badani u kordhin oo ay wali ku hadaaqayaan wixii ay ku hadaaqi jireen 22kii sanadood ee la soo dhaafay! Waxay la bootaalaysanayaan ama ay la birin-birqaynayaan Maraykan baa na Aqoonsaday.. na soo raaca.. Midnimadu waa muqqadas iyo erayo badan oo kale oo duugoobay oo ay isticmaalayeen tan iyo intii ay Somaliland jirtay. Waxay ahayd inay ku mashquulaan xasalinta nabadooda iyo dhismaha dalkooda, halka ay wakhtiga iskaga luminayaan Somaliland oo ah Qaran isku tashaday. Intaas hadaan ka yara gudbo, Qoraalka ay Wasaarada Arrimaha Debada ee UK ay ka soo saartay Somaliland, waa Qoraal lagu degdegay oo aan wax saamayn ah ku yeellan doonin arrimaha Nabadgelyada, Siyaasada iyo Dhaqaalaha Somaliland. Allah mahadi haka gaadhee Somaliland way ka soo gudubtay xilli ay saameeyn ku yeeshaan Siyaasado wadamo kale, Waana Qaran isku kalsoon oo awood buuxda u leh inuu ilaashado Amaankiisa, talaabo adagna ka qaado cid kasta oo isku dayda inay waxyeellayso Amaanka Qaranka Somaliland. Waxaan Shacbiga reer Somaliland ku baraarujinayaa inaanay dheg u dhigin dacaayadaha ay cadawgu ka fidinayaan Somaliland, waxaana lagama maarmaan ah in Shicib iyo Dawladba loo hawl galo sidii loo sii Xoojin lahaa Amaanka Dalkeena, dhirbaaxo culusna loogu dhufan lahaa cid kasta oo isku dayda inay waxyeello u geysato Amaanka, Dawladnimada iyo Madaxbanaanida Somaliland. Ugu Danbayn Amaanka Somaliland waa 100% waxaana u Carbisan Ciidamada Geesiyaasha ah ee Milattariga, Booliska, Sirdoonka, Badda, Asluubta oo kaashanaya Shacbiga Geesiyiinta ah ee reer Somaliland iyo Xukuumadooda.

Xiinfaniinle Maybe because hassan and the HAG political party ignored Khatumo so ofcourse he will lash out on the policies of Mogadishu.

To us asking somone their clan is like asking them their last name. It's very normal to us. Somalilanders are more open they dont like hiding stuff there are no taboo's in Somaliland society, Koonfurians and supposedly also reer NFD have lots of taboo's and like to hide many things.

Remember Somaliland is a nationality not all peoples of SL look the same but what i described was a bit tall or average but not short long faces pointy noses curly hair some afro hair a browinish skin color, some are skinny but some are not

This is the Typical Somaliland look

US official: Mali intervention 'could take years' By KIRUBEL TADESSE | Associated Press – 13 mins ago ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) — A U.S. official is warning that the French-led military intervention in Mali could take years. Don Yamamoto said Monday the French intervention is only the first phase, and that there should be no illusion that success will come quickly. Yamamoto said the U.S. would like to see an African-led, -owned and -directed operation like the one that successfully pushed militants out of Somalia's capital after several years of warfare. Yamamoto, a top State Department official on Africa, spoke at an African Union summit in Addis Ababa. The U.S. has been providing military transport to move French troops and equipment. The U.S. flew one refueling mission on Sunday, delivering 33,000 pounds of fuel, the U.S. military's Africa Command said. The African Union hosts a donors conference Tuesday for Mali.

Yaa gartay Ingriis na gartay but what the hell does Turjimijdhay mean?

PICTURES of anti garowe clan enclave protesters

Metta that's not true this has nothing to do with the conference in London and the brits do not care whether SL and Somalia unite or they stay apart. It doesn't hurt British interests, the Brits approach was always we are good friends with Somaliland have relations with Somaliland,even they assisted SL with some bilateral aid projects not much but. This started in 2010 how ever their spies in east Africa probably gave an intell that there was a threat against British interests hence the reaction they gave. And this is something that happened occasionally the same thing happened in 2009 they are not willing to take risks. On recognition for SL they were a colonial power they will not take steps in partitioning in east African country. How ever even the labour goverment of Tony blair indicated that SL should some how engage in talks with the TFG of cabdilahi Yusuf in order to win recognition. But the SL goverment said that they will only talk to legitimate goverment for Somalia and on neutral grounds and as long as its being mediated between the 2 countries on equal terms.So the brits are not pushing or taking sides between Somaliland and Somalia. They repeatedly called for dialogue between Somaliland and Somalia and i firmly believe the talks will happen before may whether they bear fruit or not that's to be awaited. All in all this was just lose alarm and the brits are paranoid specially in Africa.

Good news

looooooooooooooooooooool haa interatpgereyn lol

Maybe Godane threatened Matt Baugh who knows.

Yeah but its easier said than done SL should encourage the industrialization process of the country, and investing in human resources is an excellent phenomena. But because the lack of disparity in SL economic management this hasn't been achieved yet. It should establish an economic management institute and It should try to make new laws. Former Finance Minister tried that so that its citizens try to be creative and he advocated replacing foreign imports with domestic production of goods. The private financial sectors are already growing rapidly i agree people should not be fixated on the resources of a country its good if its there. But the economic growth can be implemented using other methods but its a slow process it requires the right leadership and political reform, and ofcourse incentive creativity is needed to. It should first focus on the first step to create small manufacturing companies which will try to fill the gap of what all Somaliland consumes and the next phase should be one that targets the larger Foreign markets in the region so Somaliland has a long way to go but it will get there Inshallah.
