I was numb on the day of elections to be honest. Now, I can truly feel the diamond of joy in my stomach every time I realize step by step that not just the Somalia we once knew is on the making, but hopefully a better Somalia. It's my own personal promise to leave for Somalia as soon as possible, whem I'm a couple of years older, with a master and some money to contribute to the rebuilding of my country. Of course I will not be coming back to dalka hooyo empty handed.

Say it, don't spray it, juma! You're against the international troops, because it would severely enhance Abdullahi Yusuf's grip on Somalia. And you rather die than seeing Abdullahi Yusuf actually accomplishing his mission and be hailed as a hero for it. Don't you juma? These foreign troops will be installed to disarm and guard strategical locations like airports, ports and government buildings. It is a positive step and as a Somali who's eager to see a frontrunning nation, I expect no less from the new Somali president. Regarding the fact that we should trust the Mog militia leaders in finding a peaceful agreement. We have witnessed the past 14 years that nothing will work to pacify Mog militia without a whip. Also it's regrettable how a smart fellow like you seems to believe that the militias to be disarmed are fit to be incorporated in the new Somali security forces. I ask you dearly, do you think Somalia is like London by any chance? Before you bite me in the lip, I'm not to happy about foreign troops in my country, but I feel it is totally nessecary. A nessecary evil to make it crystal, if I might add. Therefore I expect them to leave Somalia, as soon as a sufficient number of Somali security forces is ready to do it's job. Bey mate!

I'm deeply sorry Bari Nomad. Rest assured I had no cruel intentions of any kind at all.

^ Typical Somaliland ideologue. Somalia is a reality ,burying your head in the sand like an ostrich will not make it go away.

Unless you can see into Xarago's mind or by any chance own the username Xarago ( ), I'll refrain the question. I'm trying to figure out the intense hatred of xarago on a certain group of Somalis. So, why did you put the word killed between inverted commas?

What you say is your opinion Xarago, but was is the meaning behind the killing between ' '?

Is 21st of october, the glamourous day Somali people would go out on the streets and sing "maanta maanta maanta waa maalin weyn ee maanta....". Perhaps 10 october will replace that day and fill our vacuüm with a day of joy.

Xarago, come with something interesting and new. Than come back.

I agree with Bari Nomad that Rer Mudugh's predominance is a tad too much. But remember walalayal! it's only for two months till the grand elections. I would like to see Rer Bari and Rer Sanag on the steering wheel this time, but I don't agree with excluding people from the race just because they're happy hour is over. If they get elected again, wich I doubt, than they are elected for a reason. Don't forget that besides Sool and Sanag, Mudugh is the most primitive, backward region of Pland in wich Nugaal and Bari are the most modern and developed regions. This was honestly an important factor when Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed was chosen as president of Pland.

DraGon, Qawdhan has repaired the paved road, wich was demolished by SNM and Siad Barre's armed forces in the 80s.

Mutakalim, times have not changed a bit. Qardho is still underdeveloped compared to Garowe, Bosaso and Galkayo. It's mostly due to the large immigration of the Rer Qardho to Bosaso. It doesn't have the building and landselling rage like those other cities. Even little Ba'adweyn, Qalkayo's little brother, is growing like potatoes.

Bin Laden in China lol. Just the sheer thought makes me laugh. A tall, big bearded Arab between hordes of short Chinese. What an imagination!

^ Bloody hell...SW thanks for pointing that out.

What reason? I'm sorry, but I just don't understand a damn thing of what you say!

Jumatatu, I don't object you raising the issue of the people-trafficking business conducted by some louche Puntlander businessmen in Bosaso. Yet the Puntland administration is doing everything they can to fight this criminal activities, while the Somaliland administration is co-responsible for the misbehaviour (understatement!) of their CID. It would have been fair if you would point out the misbehaviour of Puntland's CID, but you didn't. Did you? This newsarticle of the BBC might be of use. Somalia's trafficking boom town

If I may answer Libaax's question. Yes, he's from Mudug. These two gentlemen are only for two months till the grand elections. I believe the Reer Sanaag at least deserve a vice-president position this time.

Somalilanders are good in promotion. They have better websites than we Puntlanders do. Our hotels have no websites at all.

Jumatatu, think before you speak. That's all I have to say to you.
