Cairo (Somaliland Today) : – The Arab Republic of Egypt responded to the request from the Somaliland Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Mohammad Bihi Younis, to visit Cairo. A Somaliland delegation left Eqal International Airport consisting of both the Foreign Minister and the Minister of Education and Higher Education, Ms. Zamzam Abdi Aden, heading for the Egyptian capital, Cairo, where they were received at Cairo International Airport by Egyptian Foreign Ministry representatives.

 

The two sides, Egypt and Somaliland, held a number of talks dealing with methods of developing the mutual relationship, especially in regards to the educational sector of the Republic of Somaliland. Furthermore, his excellency, the Egyptian Minister of Education and Higher Education, Dr. Mahmoud Abu al-Nasr, gave the Somaliland delegation a warm welcome to Cairo. A meeting was held resulting in a number of positive developments for the Republic of Somaliland, such as:

 

The Egyptian Minister of Education and Higher Education presented the case to increase the members of the Egyptian educational mission stationed in Somaliland from 37 members to 100 members.

This has a very positive impact on the hearts of the members of the Somaliland delegation, who give their thanks for the support of the Republic.

It would have been nice for them to wait until the dust settles. Egypt is not in a healthy state right now, wait until the military coup folks scatter like dust (in shaa Allah) and then go in. That photo with that scumbag Nabil Fahmi is nothing to be proud of. In shaa Allah Egypt will survive this coup and return to it's glory days of Yusuf (Calyhi asalam) and Amr ibn Cas (RA).

 

 

P.S: They should rename that school in Burco, naming a school after Abdel Naser is like naming a school after the former President of Somalia (who's name is not even worth mentioning).

Bad development. It just means now Egypt will be able to export more Salafists from Al Azhair and other institutions. They will secretly teach the kids how to build IEDs, how to hate Ethiopia and support Mogadishu. The Egyptians have realized Mogadishu is weak and can't do the job diplomatically, militarily nor financially. So they re-packaged their policy. It's still the same old Greater Somalia ideology with the agenda of launching proxy war against Ethiopia and disabling Abay Dam. The Egyptians will now teach Somaliland kids about hate and instead be taught to travel to Mogadishu to receive their Certificate III, Diplomas and Bachelors. They will only teach cert I and II in Somaliland. Very smart strategy.

 

The always gullible brothers like Xaaji are quick to party without examining the deals.

 

Egypt is always pro-Somalia and will go to grave being pro-Somalia more than any other Arab Republic.

 

Ethiopia has no choice but to go to Burao and monitor the Al Azhair radicalization.

This story or anything related to Egypt does not generate any interest in Somaliland public. No one is hardly talking about this. No major Somaliland media even mentioned this meeting. The story that is generating more interest is this:

 

Guddoomiyaha Golaha Wakiiladda Somaliland oo booqasho ku tagay jig-jiga oo uu kag qaybgalayo Xuska Qoomiyadaha (SAWIRRO)

Cairo is second Mogadishu and they need their own AMISOM in Tahrir Square.

^^ I am showing you that what you trying to promote here as 'improving relations' remains irrelevant, none important and largely of no interest to Somalilanders.

 

This meeting occurred more than two months ago and the fact that no one paid attention and you are digging the archives says a lot.

 

Egyptian values are not inline with Somaliland values. Egypt can't put the fire in its own KM-4 (Tahriir Square), forget about al Azhar and reviving the ideology of a Pan-Arabist who died over 60 years ago. Reviving his name is like reviving Barre. Why support Pan-Arabist Nasr but be against your own Pan-Somalist like Barre?

 

It's very hypocrisy of Somaliland to ask far away Arabs to restore the legacy and ideologies of Nasr including institutions that bared his name but Barre is erased. Egypt was supplying all the weapons used against Somaliland to Barre while UAE funded his Apartheid South African mercenaries at the tune of $2m per mission but today UAE is different nation. However when the time is right, there will be a lawsuit against them.

 

You see I am not motivated by tribe, I fight for values and Somaliland ideals which differ from Konfuria Democratic Republic and Egypt.

Jacaylbaro,

 

Well said brother. Egypt adds no value to Somaliland. It is a symbolic victory over them and their long policy of anti-Somaliland stance in order to protect its Nile waters but it has no intentions of ever becoming a genuine friend of Somaliland. So it was good meeting but lets not rush and import their viruses which will only disable us like Israel's great virus against Iran's nuclear system.

 

They should take Nasr BS and their al Azhair salafist center to Mogadishu. Not welcome here.

 

Our people are democratic and liberal-conservative lefties.

^^ You dont have to view it like that we know the Egyptians are in conflict with the Ethiopians over the nile river. But they know we are not going to change our ideology stance with them what makes you think Arabs can influence Somalilanders. We work with any one but make no promises to any one Balancing our relationship in the region. Never have one permanent ally.
