Pilgrim Posted May 8, 2009 Hey GD, what do you know about this report? Somalia Targeted – Ecoterra Somali Marine & Coastal Monitor - 27th Press Release Dr. Muhammad Shamsaddin Megalommatis May 05, 2009 The former Italian foreign undersecretary Margherita Boniver, dispatched by Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini as envoy to help in the case of seized Italian tugboat T/B BUCCANEER with her two now empty barges, arrived together with the Italian Ambassador in Garowe, the capital of the semi-autonomous region of Somalia on Saturday for talks with Puntland President Abdirahman Mohamed Farole. But the fact that a Canadian and US-American delegation of Africa Oil Corporation, who still holds two onshore oil concessions in Puntland from a joint venture deal with controversial Australian firm Range Resources, had scheduled a major planning session with the president, who had been a stout opponent to these oil deals of his predecessor, delayed her mission Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mintid Farayar Posted May 8, 2009 Duke, I love the map of Puntland. Quite different from the one used by the NYTimes in today's article (watch the video attached to the article), or Reuters, or Associated Press, or NPR, or the BBC...

General Duke Posted May 8, 2009 ^^^Yup its all about perception,we know the SNM regions and the Orphans of the Queen territory its clear, whats important though is that the overall map of Somalia has not changed, and the NW is still part of Somalia, get the drift.
