Xaaji, you are right. this would be quite a team. They are the only two candidates who are running on a party ticket rather then sub-clan support.

Ali M. Geedi is not a Professor. He is a thief(50 years old and 50 million dollar) and the biggest political failure alive. The fact Sheick Shariif wants to be associated with this guy, only shows the man(Shariif) has no princibles.

I once saw a mob in Hargeysa chasing a guy who has tried to use 'magic'(sixir) on a girl. They brought him to the police station.

The sad part is that his 'hanjaabad' has worked in the past. Tuuginta(Shariif Sakiiin iyo Shariif Ahmed) Muqdisho joogta wee dhagesytan hanjaabada Faroole. Taas ayaa suuragal ka dhigtay Garowe 1 en 2 and this ridicilous Federal constitution dib lagu so qoray Addis Abeba.

Farmaajo seems to pay folks to get out there and demonstrate.

So Ethiopia gave in by accepting that the talks will be held in Kenya.

I will for sure participate. I will try to organise a side event in my town. Ibti, any idea how I can get in contact with the old men or his crew?

Alpha, your description here is quite accurate and fair. But why were you so quite? I hushed you only when you shared your 'neo crypto fascist' slander. Couldn't you have talked about something else?

This quite a prestigious prize. It is named after the husband of the Queen and the awarded is awarded by the Queen herself to promote the Arts. I suggest we start an e-campaign to support Hadraawi's candidacy, info@princeclausfund.nl

Abtigiis;865461 wrote: ONE OF THE POOREST, CONTRADICTORY, AND SIMPLISTIC ECONOMIC ANALYSIS I HAVE EVER READ! My suspicions about this man's grit are validated. I am goin to write a one-page review of his article and share with you. But just look at the Abstract and the Conclusions (the econometrics models like all social research are a manipulated facility and yield the results of the selected date that one chased) and tell me if they make to you. basically, the Abstract is contradictory. I don't know the advisor who let this work pass, but he is either blind or plain criminal. What does it mean to say "the impact of political instability on economic growth is not conclusive"? Of course, it isn't. But how do you arrive at such conclusions? did he do a "with stability" Vs "instability" comparative analysis in the same country? No! if Somalia's economy grew 10% moe than that of Switzerland while facing political instability, how can one say the emperical evidence shows that the impact of political instability on growth is not as "recent(??how recent) or "current literature??(which literature?) says, where is the evidence that it is not? That is not presented in this paper. Abdiweli's point is that policy disturbances over some time have more impact on economci growth than political instability. I ask: and why is policy instability separated from political instability? If somalia has not government because of war, isn't that also a caused of policy instability? Really shallow analysis! But the worst is the conclusion. First of all, its presentation is wrong. He keeps on saying "this paper presents..." when this is a conclusion and he should have said "This paper presented or outlined ...." If we forgive him for this small lapse, the content is also hallow and not actually true. Look at it for yourself and tell me if it tells you anything. More on the paper later (I will look at the recent literature and the conventional growth models and what they say about the relationship between policy, politics and economic growth). "This paper elaborates upon the effect of political stability on economic growth using a novel approach. Unlike the literature on growth that emphasizes the turnover of decision makers, this paper focuses on the volatility of economic policies as the relevant indicator of stability. The literature on growth ignores the microeconomic instability associated with frequent changes of government policies. The empirical results of this paper indicate that the effect of political instability on economic growth is not conclusive. Most of the commonly used proxies for political instability have failed to explain growth differences across countries. The political instability indices have no significant effect on growth when a reasonable set of core variables is also included in the regression equation. The results also show that almost all of the policy uncertainty variables are significantly and negatively correlated with economic growth. However, the instability of economic policies has no significant impact on the accumulation of capital." Confusing and contradictory! cause and effect murdered! Conclusion: " This paper tested the relationship among political instability, policy uncertainty, and economic growth. The political instability variables failed to fully capture the uncertainties faced by individual investors. Most of the widely used measures of political instability such as coups, revolutions, and the like have failed to fully capture the effect of constantly changing policies on the perceptions of important economic agents. This paper presents the empirical results of the relationship between economic growth and several policy instability variables using appropriate econometric techniques. The results show that policy instability has a more dramatic and significant impact on growth than political instability. The empirical results also indicate that the impact of political instability on economic growth is not conclusive. None of the commonly used measures of political instability have any significant impact either on the composition or the amount of capital investment. Further research is needed to seek better measures and channels through which political instability affects economic growth. First of all, how can one gloss over as core an issue as the economic paradigm he is analyzing by simplying saying "current growth literature". There are lots of these literature and they all vary. Is he talking about Liberal economic paradigm on growth: hershmann, etc, or neo-liberals, or developmental state theories? This is the first thing he should have clarified, and but it is amateurish that cause and effect is thrown out when separating policy instability from political instability (war etc). This paper is fine from undergraduate student but from a graduate student , it is a DISASTER! I am honestly shocked by how poor this paper is! I said I will come with a full review! Duke, I told you not to post that paper. Your only damaging your "Professor".

Duke, did you even read those papers. If you did you wouldn't post it here. The man did a research on the corelation between economic growth and political instabilities like Assassinations, Genocidal Incidents, Revolutions, Riots. naga da dee. This is kind of research is done by students. Not the level you would expect from a "Professor".

NinYaaban, I am a former inmate to. I was 16 years old, when I was arrested by French Border Control. They put me in a small cell together with a smelly fat Malidivian man. The worst 4 hours of my life.
