Sheikh Mohammed Hussein Ali Al Amoudi (Ge'ez: ሞሓመድ አልአሙዲ, Arabic: محمد حسين العمودي; born 1946 in Dessie, Ethiopia but grew up in Weldiya) is a Saudi Arabian /Ethiopian business magnate who lives in Ethiopia and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. In 2008, Forbes magazine ranks Mohammed Al Amoudi as the 77th richest person in the world with a net worth of $9 billion. Mohammed Al Amoudi is Ethiopia's richest person and the richest black person in the world In 2006 his net worth was estimated as between $2.5 and $6.9 billion, causing Arabian Business to rank him as the world's 8th richest Arab, and Forbes to rank him as the world's 77th richest person. Al Amoudi's father is Yemeni and his mother is Ethiopian. He immigrated to Saudi Arabia in 1965 and became a Saudi citizen. Depending on disparate ethnic categorizations, and Al Amoudi's mixed Ethiopian and Yemeni parentage, he is one of the richest Arabs. Al Amoudi made his fortune in construction and real estate before branching out to buy oil refineries in Sweden and Morocco. He is said to be the largest foreign investor in both Sweden and Ethiopia. He holds an Honorary Doctorate in Philosophy from the Addis Ababa University and has been honoured with the Swedish Royal Order of the Polar Star by King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden. Al Amoudi owns a broad portfolio of businesses not only in oil but also in mining, agriculture, hotels, hospitals, finance, operations and maintenance. Some have said he is gaining monopoly on businesses in Ethiopia, but there seem to be other wealthy Ethiopians to challenge some of his companies. Despite losing bids to Al Amoudi, CEO Girma of Ethiopian Airlines said Al Amoudi's work is a healthy competition, saying "growth and competition, it is good for everybody." His businesses are largely to be found within two conglomerate holding and operating companies, Corral Petroleum Holdings and MIDROC (Mohammed International Development Research and Organization Companies), which he owns and manages. He employs over 40,000 people through these companies. Al Amoudi has focused his East African investments on Ethiopia since the mid-1980s. MIDROC Ethiopia was created in 1994. He is strongly committed to Ethiopia, especially job creation and infrastructure capacity building. He is also well known as a philanthropist in his birth country and has built a 140-bed health care facility and supports visual impairment, disabled, children's health and poverty alleviation programmes. In the education arena, he provides overseas scholarships and is a patron of the Ethiopian arts. Al Amoudi has sponsored the CECAFA Cup, Africa's oldest cup competition for the last three years, during which time the football tournament has been known as the Al Amoudi Senior Challenge Cup. Al Amoudi is a frequent visitor to the UK and the US where he has further business interests and was jointly honoured by the World Bank and State Department for his work in supporting African development. This was the first time that the World Bank had hosted such an event for a private sector investor.

This is for you North: In My World Nowadays, I never go anywhere without doing my ablutions first. I do not leave house or work place without it. Why should I do that? Is it going over my obligations? Or is it to keep clean? Or is it, basically, the fear of God and what will happen to me in the hereafter? In my younger days, I thought life was going to go on and on and on…without ever coming to a stop one day. I often forgot that I was answerable to God for what I did with my life. Will I be punished for those rash days? Will my repentance in my old age suffice to give the cherished entrance to Janna? I would be very grateful if you sent a lost soul a small portion of your wisdom to console it. I sincerely do hope that you had never erred in God’s ways. If not for a passing by mullah some fifteen years ago, I would still have been missing the trail of virtues. And for a century to come, I will have been still going my way, hand in hand with a gleeful devil.

That should not be a problem ,,,, go ahead and i'll join you there.

Somaliland isn't known for its haute cuisine. Ask people here what their staple foods are and they will reply rice and spaghetti. The days of a meat and milk diet are drawing to end as pastoralists succumb to export bans, land rights and of course, climate change. However, if there is a speciality dish, then it is camel. They say you can judge a restaurant by its kitchen. In which case the omens were not good for my lunch-stop this afternoon. The wooden work-surface was covered with innards, off-cuts and slop from the huge vat of camel, onion and tomato that simmered away on a charcoal-burner below. Flies swarmed over hunks of meat and piles of the sour tasting njera laid out on the side ready to be thrust through the hatch. The recipe is simple: grill the meat over coals for ten minutes then add to the simmering cauldron of mucky water and vegetables. Eat with soggy njera. But I was brought up to try eveything once and for a meat-lover the camel meat was more than palatable. A little like mutton perhaps, nice and tender. Not quite so easy to stomach was the 'soup' with its layer of fatty globules on the surface. I drew the line at a slab of fat from between the brain and skull. My stomach survived the experience and it got me thinking there's probably a book-load of camel recipes out there. I've had a quick scan...here's the pick of the bunch. 1 medium camel 4 lambs 20 chickens (roasted) 150 eggs (boiled) 40 kilos tomatoes Salt and seasonings Stuff eggs into tomatoes, stuff tomatoes into chickens, stuff chickens into lambs, stuff lambs into camel. Roast until tender This though leaves the cook asking several questions: - Just how big is a medium camel? - How exactly do you stuff 2 kilos of tomatoes in a single chicken and five chickens in a lamb? - Are we talking oven roast (how?!) or spit roast? And how many minutes per pound? Any other recipes out there, send them my way... By Richard

afrol News, 17 June - The recently approved 2008 budget of the self-declared republic of Somaliland has seen an increase of 27 percent from the 2007 budget. Domestic economic growth and increased engagement of donors have created a much improved revenue base for the Somalilander government. The Somaliland Ministry of Finance recently presented its budget for the upcoming 2008-09 fiscal year to the Hargeisa parliament, where, after thorough scrutinising, it was approved of. Somaliland's new annual budget has a total frame of US$ 51 million. While this represents one of the world's smallest national budgets, it is nevertheless seen as a big achievement for a state that has not been recognised by any nation. Somaliland in 1991 dissolved its 1960 union with the rest of Somalia, and has since that established full-fledged democratic institutions, a national currency and a banking sector. With political stability and internal peace, the Somalilander economy has been steadily on the rise, despite the lack of foreign recognition. Its unrecognised status has also meant that Somaliland's government cannot get access to international credits. While Somaliland thus avoids the debt trap, it however keeps budgets very low. While domestic economic growth has led to a somewhat greater revenue base for the Hargeisa government, this year's budget increase is mostly based on increased international engagement in this only peaceful and stable corner of Somalia. Somaliland recently reached an agreement with the World Bank and donor nations on a five-year Reconstruction and Rehabilitation programme worth around US$ 550 million dollars, which is to help improve infrastructure, economy and social facilities. According to the Somalilander government, "the budgetary increase of 27 percent from last year is to accommodate with in the budget the rising world food prices that also affected Somaliland and provide gradual planned pay increases for government workers, increasing government support to higher education institutions, health services and rural developments." While Somaliland spends relatively great amounts on defence - a consequence of constant war threats from other parts of Somalia - the Hargeisa government has a good record regarding investments in social infrastructure, especially health and education services. The new budget has been met by some criticism for its continued large spending on security, consuming around half of the national budget. Somaliland's armed forces also received the biggest budget increase this year. Critics hold government should spend more on health and education services, which still are very poor despite significant improvements. By staff writer © afrol News
