Tallaabo's roadmap to peace.

Tallaabo   

In my opinion, the best political system for Somalia is a parliamentary system based on the United Kingdom model. With some modification the following plan could be the solution to the long running political instability:

 

1 The AU should continue the military campaigns to stabilise the whole country.

2. The government which takes office after August must start a campaign to register every single man, woman, and child in a central database then issue a biometric ID card with a unique number to every citizen.

3. The original 13 states in Somalia should be used for administrative purposes.

4. Give about every 25,000 people in an area the right to elect an MP. If a state has 120,000 people living in it, then 4 MPs will be elected from it. If it has only 85,000, then 3 MPs.

5. Every citizen 18 years or older should vote using their ID card and be able to use his/her vote in any state. Also all the citizens should have the same rights in every state regardless of their clan.

6. The lower house of the parliament must be composed of all the elected MPs from the country.

7. The upper house should be composed of elected tribal elders. The tribal elders are elected in the same way as the MPs. Every 5000 members of a sub-clan should elect a leader. If a clan has 100,000 members, then the sub-clans will have 20 leaders. These 20 leaders will in turn elect a clan chief who would be made a member of the upper house of the parliament (the house of elders).

8. Once all the MPs take their seats in parliament, they organise themselves into parties based on their political believes (or tribal alliances). The party which gets 55% of the seats either on its own or through a coalition gets to form the government.

9. The judges of the high courts serving the states and those of the supreme court should be selected from the members of an independent national organisation for the law professionals and be appointed by a committee formed by that organisation. Their appointment must then be approved or rejected by a vote in both housed of parliament.

10. The president should be only a figurehead who will have no major political powers. His/her duties must be mainly ceremonial. It should be the prime minister’s office which will have all the executive powers.

Tallaabo, don't mind Che. All greats minds have been misunderstood by the small minded.

 

Short respond.

 

We need police to restore law and order. this will take time. Second in order to organise elections and hand out ID's, a proper voter registration is needed but this will be difficult as most Somalis have been internally displaces.
