  2. ^ yes! of course, you can!!!!!!! i tell you what, inaar, make a website (something basic....i'll pay for the domain name and stuff via my credit card). we'll add a paypal account to the site. this way people can donate the cash required to purchase materials, equipment and furniture. this will be very useful walahi. i know you're a tech-freak....marka just imagine how much you can help establish the public library. :cool:

The whole thing has become repetitive and dull, just virtual bickering like high school girls. Go out there and waste your time on shukansi and bag a qalanjo, if you must waste time. It's much more fun, trust me Adios and goodluck. i agree. SOL is boring, repetitive and an extraordinarily pathetic site. but, be that as it may, at the end of the day, when ALL is said and done, i kinda enjoying trolling on this site. why? because there is nothing out there! my life is a routine, inaar. everything has it's place. for instance i troll between 3-5. then 10-12pm-ish. its alright. i just love to troll any thread and write ridiculous little comments. why? because i'm an attention-fiend. i need my fix. as for bagging a qalanjo, i might be getting married soon. there'll be plenty more time for this and related activities after the marriage. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. also since the working week has started, i have to concentrate....and that means no funny business until Thursday. :cool:
  4. ^ walahi bilahi, i called your number today. it was off. i was seeing if you were really in the middle east.
  5. Abbaasoow, inaar, this thread is a FAILURE. you really ought to quit ASAP. i've been deserted by ALL. and i'm kinda annoyed at your extraordinary level of loyalty. please leave and i don't wish to discuss why. thanks, inaar. :(:(:(

Adamsooow, inaar, i think we ought to stop fighting on these boards. let's call it a truce and i'll name the reading room after you? thanks for the ideas. in the next couple of weeks and months, i hope to find a good sized premises that could house the library. computers and other such things will be difficult to source but i hope to use sponsorship deals and appeal to the corporate social responsibilities/sensitivities of those close and personal friends in the 1% of SL.

  12. thanks Taballabo. your positive words of encouragement have already elevated my confidence levels to 4%.
  13. so.........i had this vision last night, as you do... in the vision, i saw a library bearing my name.... then this morning, i went to the ministry of education and registered the library....because talking is for FOOLs, somaha? i've already procured the books and learning resources/materials. establishing the library will take me about 10 months....inshallah. my area doesn't have a public library and this is really disappointing. i hope this project can count on your valued support. i'm not asking for donations, contributions nor BOOK AID because i DON'T need that, ma garateen? i'll work with a grass roots, bottoms up and a conscious effort. in time, this will be a community based project. it'll be a space of learning. it'll be managed by me (CEO, founder and Chief Librarians) and staff (3 assistants, 2 librarians and 1 library liaison officer) = 6 new JOBS created. i just need your valued support. i have the necessary connections to help me establish the library..........but seriously, any ideas or suggestions and most importantly positive comments of encouragement will go a long way. this small nation has come a long way and but that's not enough...... and there is so much more....we can ALL do to make a difference......ee sida uula soco..... i'll update y'all in the next couple of months of the progresses. this could be 'our little' mashruuc. so support me to support our people. nabadu waa nolosha, noloshu waa nabada - Alpha Blondy of SOL circa 2012 thanks, Alpha.

  17. Somaliland was once part of chaotic Somalia. Today it’s a thriving oasis of peace. APRIL 27, 2013 BY AHMED MOHAMED MOHAMOUD SILANYO The Horn of Africa has endured decades of violent repression, civil war, terrorism, and piracy. But after a period of neglect, the international community has taken preliminary steps to restore political stability This new approach is evident in Somalia, where a new government, with support from the United States and others, is making a concerted effort to move forward. There are signs of progress. Expatriate technocrats are returning to help rebuild. Piracy off the coast of Somalia has diminished, with attacks falling from 239 in 2010 to 46 in 2012. The British Embassy recently reopened its long-shuttered doors. Yet the country’s stability remains fragile, as witnessed just days ago when al-Shabab terrorists bombed Mogadishu’s judicial complex, taking the lives of 29 innocent people and injuring more than 40 others. Ironically, the world has paid much less attention to a nearby model of success. Just north of Somalia, the Republic of Somaliland enjoys starkly different circumstances. Having chosen to unite with Somalia after gaining independence in 1960 — we had been separate colonies under British and Italian rule — our people reasserted their right to self-determination in 1991 as our neighbor descended into chaos. Since that time, Somaliland has been a virtual island of good governance, peace, and security in the Horn of Africa. There is no safe haven for terrorists on our land, no pirates off our coast. Experts around the world have advocated for the diplomatic recognition of our nation, yet support from the United States and others for our independent, sovereign status remains just out of reach. Our success has come through decades of struggle and suffering. In the 1980s, the Somali regime of Mohamed Siad Barre waged a brutal campaign against Somaliland, killing 50,000 civilians. Like many others who have experienced similar atrocities, we learned an important, tragic lesson: Never again would we allow such a thing to happen to our people. As Somalia subsequently disintegrated, Somaliland built a functioning, stable, and democratic state. While the international community spent millions trying to save Somalia from itself, we focused on maintaining peace within our borders, building strong state institutions, and creating a sustainable economy. Since 2000, Somaliland has held five peaceful elections and preserved a culture of consultative democracy. In the last year, Somaliland has taken deliberate efforts to renew dialogue with Somalia’s leadership. Most recently, with the support of the Turkish government, Somalia’s President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and I signed a communiqué in which we affirmed our shared commitment to build trust and improve relations between our governments. Future talks will aim to strengthen cooperation in the fight against terrorism, extremism, piracy, illegal fishing, toxic dumping, and other serious crimes. Most importantly, with international support, the Somaliland-Somalia dialogue process must seek to provide final clarification on the status of our political relationship. Somalia and Somaliland can and should be equal partners. Yet as we proceed down this track, we hope and expect that those looking to support Somalia’s aspirations will also seek ways to support ours. Engagement with Mogadishu to sustain its transition to a viable entity and support for Somaliland’s national aspirations need not be mutually exclusive. In this regard, international conferences to address the region’s economic and humanitarian needs are welcome, but must be coupled with steps to address political issues that might otherwise stifle or undermine such support. Likewise, security assistance must be aligned with efforts to resolve these same issues so as not to breed new instability should a final agreement be reached. U.S. defense officials have called Somaliland “an entity that works,” and for good reason. Our government does work, and with proper diplomatic recognition, it will be able to contribute more effectively to a sustainable and prosperous future for the Horn of Africa. To this end, we are building on our new dialogue with Somalia to both expand relations with other governments and pursue observer status in international organizations, starting with our region’s Intergovernmental Authority on Development and the African Union. We are not asking others to take a chance on what Somaliland may one day become, but rather to simply recognize what we have already achieved. Somaliland is a fully functioning sovereign entity. From 1960 to 1991 we gave unity within a “Greater Somalia” a chance. It did not work, and we cannot turn back. In the midst of violence and now a fragile peace, Somaliland’s people have protected — and will continue to advance — our cause of freedom and security because we know their true value. In partnership with our neighbors and with the support of the international community, we can ensure that the entirety of the Horn of Africa will experience the peace and stability that we have in Somaliland. BY AHMED MOHAMED MOHAMOUD SILANYO -------- we are PROUD of your efforts Mr. President.
  18. i chaired this very important meeting today and i completely flopped. i lacked the 3C's. i just didn't follow my own advice as per public events. what are the 3C's 1. confidence - possessing the ability to present a confident attitude. using commanding language. body language is important too.... etc. 2. concise - dealing with matters in a concise manner........ not beating around the bush and wasting time. introduction is key. 3. clarity - presenting matters in a clear manner so that ALL will follow and participate in the proceedings. over-simplifying matters is deadly. avoid the use of jargons and acronyms and confusing medium of instruction. a bit disappointed in my approaches but i'll survive. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
  19. i almost forget but it rained early today. it was very brief and lasted for 5mins.
