I love to hate the guy, but it seems he can't be looked over when it comes to Puntland's greatest politicians. With today's approval of the constitution Puntland has leaped a gigantic step towards rule of law. Since his election in 2009 Mr Faroole has put Puntland's map on world stage and domestically made it very influential and a respected power broker. With Faroole, Puntland created its own flag, national anthem and opened its own parliament's building. Garowe is becoming the new stake holder of Somali politics as delegations of world envoys come to Garowe before proceeding to Mogadishu or Hargeysa. Wether we love him or hate him, the guy might not be a the greatest politician, but he seems to be a good shooter, and a ruthless bulldozer to his enemies. My question is, What will history write about Faroole?

Well that will not happen and muslims will remain muslims until the end of this world. And to say "muslims will always remain impoverished" you are just fuming hot air, muslims did prove early, are proving now (Malysia, Turkey, UAE, Singapore) and will prove again that they can conquer the world stage while sticking and practicing their religion. and Inshallah slowly but surely with the help of the Arab spring muslims are reflecting to themselves and the future seems to be bright.

faarah22;820119 wrote: mukulalow with all due respect friend, that is an imaginary islam divorced from reality we have seen since the beginning of islam, and by the way christians don't follow the true christiantiy also, et al. even during the caliphates christians and jews dominated positions of skill, same with ottoman empire which freely used non muslim expertise for virtually all its needs. even in my own life i have seen some somali christians and they are really hardworking and a certain worldy nous that is absent in muslim somalis. the reasons i think are the ideals the religion imparts in you, for the most important one is the fatalism that all muslims have of we are dying anyway why try hard if you get my drift. I strongly disagree with you here, you are trying somehow to re-write history. The early muslims history is not imaginary but a solid proven history and they achieved the un-imaginable in a matter of few centuries. When muslims were in their height, christian capitals like Paris and London were on dark ages. Muslims universities like Zaytuna of tunis, Al-azhar, of egypt, Esfahan of Iran, and many many universities were producing muslim scholars on chemistry, physics, maths, astronomy, medicine and architect. I wish you to visit The science museum of London, and you'll see what a mark early muslims left on the world as they enriched science and litriture. This fatalism your talking about is non-sense, Islam tells us to work and work hard for this world and later life, The examples of the prophet PBUH tells us that he used to work and work hard, we believe your work is part of your fate, that is the real fatalism, not seat and watch. here is a verse in the Quran where Allah is telling us to work. Surah Tawba-verse 105 And say, "Do [as you will], for Allah will see your deeds, and [so, will] His Messenger and the believers. And you will be returned to the Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, and He will inform you of what you used to do." Just watch some of these videos about Islam in Europe and how it contributed to their civilisation.

Farah, I agree with you to some extent, I agree with you that the modern day muslims slipped through the net of development and technology, but my argument is that this decaying is not what Islam teaches us, Islam encourages us to be hard working, self sufficiency and creative, if muslims don't heed to this, then Allah promised that he will give this world to who ever works harder for, whether a muslim or a non muslim. Allah says in the Quran Surah Al-Imran; verse 145. And whoever desires the reward of this world - We will give him thereof; and whoever desires the reward of the Hereafter - We will give him thereof. And we will reward the grateful.. . Its all about work, if you work for it you will get it.

I don't think its anything to do with Islamic culture, as Islam encouraged and respected craftsmen on its heyday, muslims were the rulers of the world for 100s of years technologically and creativity. But its got everything to do with our weird Somali culture which looks down to craftsmen and blacksmiths. Its a culture which promotes begging and demotes self sufficiency.

The worst part is when he calls "Mama Khadija" siyad barre's wife a "b!tch" who used to sleep with a man from another clan. This is so disgusting and un-Islamic, to call an elderly woman who died many years ago a "b!tch*". This guy is the lowest of the low.

It always baffles me how these so called admins are unable to build 3 km tarmac runways, we just became a nation of beggars waiting someone else to do even simple things for us. Bosaso is a city which generates millions and have the capacity to build its tarmac runway, no need for italians or turks.

I wouldn't mind if crops from those lands were feeding the starving people in these regions, but the lands belong to those nations who purchased for their strategic food security and every single crop will be shipped to the owners. The Ethiopian federal junta got the money, and the the purchasers got the crop, the sole losers are the indigenous inhabitants.

Land grabbing: the new global power play A visit to the local farmers' market has become a weekly event for many Australians. Meeting a real live farmer, coffee in hand, is part of the experience. Do it while you can. Small-scale producers are a dying breed around the world as the security of rural communities is undermined by 'land-grabbing' - large-scale land acquisition by foreign investors. Today the international farmers' movement La Via Campesina calls on governments to stop the global-land grab that deprives rural communities of their livelihoods and threatens to spark civil war in countries already crippled by poverty and hunger. Prompted by the 2008 food crisis, wealthy food-importing nations such as China, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and South Korea are securing their future food supplies in poorer, resource-rich nations. The World Bank reports that foreign investors acquired 111 million acres of farmland in 2009. Nearly 75 per cent of this land is in sub-Saharan Africa. Controversial land acquisitions have contributed to conflicts in Sudan, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Chinese multinationals Sino-Cam and Chongqing Seed Corp have leased land from the governments of Cameroon and Tanzania for future rice production. Bahrain has secured agro-fishery reserves in the Philippines. Indian interests are buying palm oil plantations in Indonesia. The backlash is fierce. China's attempt to secure 2.5 million acres of land in the Philippines was thwarted by a public outcry, and Madagascans sacked their government over the proposed sale of 3 million acres to Daewoo Logistics of South Korea in 2009. However land deals are often made without consultation with local people. In Ethiopia, 150,000 people have been relocated from eastern Somali to make way for Saudi and Indian investment projects. The impacts of these ventures, including displacement, food insecurity and water shortages, are rarely considered. A 2010 survey of private investment in agriculture in the Sudan, Pakistan, Tanzania and Mali by the New York Center for Human Rights and Global Justice identified an absence of transparency and regulatory frameworks within the host countries. Supporters of the investment initiatives describe opportunities for technological development and increased yields that will feed local populations. They describe the leased land as 'undeveloped' – a highly contested notion in regions where peasant farmers have no formal tenure. What governments consider empty or marginal land is often all that local people have to sustain their livelihoods. In reality local people are unlikely to benefit from food production on land leased to foreign investors. World Bank analysis suggests only 37 per cent of foreign investment projects will be for food crops. The food that is not exported to the home countries of investors will be converted to bioethanol produced from soya, palm, rapeseed and other oil-rich plants - the staple food of some of the poorest people in the world. In 2009 an estimated 100 million tons of grain were diverted for lucrative biofuel production. This volume will escalate as developing countries set ambitious targets to replace fossil fuels. In March the UN Committee on World Food Security adopted draft guidelines against land grabbing to better protect rural communities. Though non-binding, these guidelines are the latest step in the long campaign to reassert the importance of local agriculture. The Food and Agriculture Organisation says "local production by small-scale farmers" is the most efficient way to ensure food security at the household level in developing countries as it increases food availability, income and employment. La Via Campesina, a social movement of 150 rural organisations across 70 countries, calls this food sovereignty. Food sovereignty grants nations control over their food security policies, including the right to impose tariffs against the dumping of cheap exports, and the support of local markets. It also puts the onus on governments to respect, protect and fulfil the rights of citizens to food and the productive resources to produce it, including land. April 17 is the anniversary of the 1996 massacre of 19 members of the Landless Workers' Movement in Brazil. Two per cent of Brazilian landowners own 56 per cent of available land. On large estates, the latifundos, nearly 100 million hectares of fertile agricultural land lie fallow while 22 million go hungry. For Brazilian farmers land-grabbing is just their latest challenge.

Its true SL is 10-12 years ahead of PL, its a healthy measure to compare a countries wealth and progress to its gross GDP, comparing 140 million to 38 million, yes SL is richer than PL, but here is why. 1) SL has better infrastructure left by the old Somali government, such as Berera deep Port and airport, Igal Airport, also SL has cross international border trade advantage than PL with Djibouti and Ethiopia, while PL doesn't have a single tarmac airstrip and a deep port plus no international border trade except sea trade by Oman, & UAE. 2) Bosaso port tariff is much cheaper than its counterpart Berbera, meaning less revenue. 3) SL gets big donor money from the EU and special payments from UK for its democratization and elections, something PL just realized. 4) The biggest company in the Somali peninsula is from SL (Dahabshiil) which contributes hugely to its economy. 5) SL has the biggest live stock market in the horn, Burco market generates huge revenue for SL. 5) SL has a very good small manufacture business exporting lots of products to Somalia e.g Shampoos, soup, Coke, etc, while there is no vice versa
