The Somaliland Diaspora Agency (SLDA) congratulates all the esteemed Somaliland Diaspora communities living abroad for the celebration of the 58th Somaliland Anniversary, 26th June, 2018 and urges them to uphold commemorating the Independence Day each year along with 18 May, the Independence Reassertion Day. The Republic of Somaliland is the British Protectorate that won its independence from United Kingdom on 26th June 1960, five days before entering the failed unity with Somalia on 1st July. We annually commemorate 18 May and heighten its festivity because it is the history we reasserted independence from Somalia after grievous decades of suffering and tyranny that botched unity existed. We accentuate the May Day as for the many lives sacrificed and the massive loss to bring back this independence which then brought us the peace, brotherhood, justice, the freedom of speech and the equality enjoyed in Somaliland today. However, June 26 is another momentous history for the people of Somaliland. It is the day we received independence after 76 years under British Rule (1884-1960). As every other country celebrates such event, it is not only essential for Somalilanders as history but also as evidence and support for the Legal Case for obtaining international recognition. It is exclusive history belonging to Somaliland and does not belong to Somalia at all. We need our young generations particularly those Diaspora-born children to learn and know the difference and the importance of both anniversaries and the related histories; June 26, 1960, and May 18, 1991: as the day of Somaliland’s Independence receiving from Britain and the later for declaring independence reclamation respectively and thus espousing celebrations of both events every year. By celebrating June 26, we are taking the opportunity to inform those who may not be aware that Somaliland was a separate country from Somalia and with its historic independence in 1960. Finally, may we again congratulate you on the Somaliland 58th Anniversary Celebration in June 2018 and wish you all the best, well-being and prosperity, your more collective action, your strengthened unity and stronger cooperation, as well as your increased contribution to the nation building and backing Somaliland recognition movement. Hassan Ahmed Yusuf Executive Director and Acting Chairman of Somaliland Diaspora Agency Ministry of Foreign Affairs & International Cooperation Hargeisa, Republic of Somaliland 26th June, 2018

“It’s a petty decision,” Solana told Spanish television, explaining he had gone to Iran in 2013 to attend President Hassan Rohani’s swearing-in ceremony Former NATO chief Javier Solana said Monday his online application to enter the United States was turned down for having travelled to Iran where he took part in negotiations on a nuclear deal. “It’s a petty decision,” he told Spanish television, explaining he had gone to Iran in 2013 to attend President Hassan Rohani’s swearing-in ceremony. “I went as a representative for all those who negotiated” a deal later reached in 2015 aimed at ensuring Tehran would not develop a nuclear bomb, from which the United States withdrew in May. “People must go to the most complicated countries to keep going with negotiations. “What seems most shocking to me is that these people be treated the same way as others” in terms of being allowed or denied entry. The online entry application has to be filled in by EU residents before a trip to the United States of three months or less. But since 2015, people having previously travelled to Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Somalia or Yemen can no longer get this fast-track authorisation and have to apply for a visa. The restriction doesn’t normally apply to government employees, but Solana was not in such a post in 2013. “What they have (in the United States) is a computer with an algorithm, and if it knows that you went to Iran recently, it takes you off the system,” he said. “I’m going to try and make sure they let me go over, I need to go as I work there, I’m a professor in several universities.” The Spaniard headed up the NATO military alliance from 1995 to 1999 and subsequently became EU foreign policy chief until 2009.

Somalia’s capital city of Mogadishu is defined by a complex mix of challenges and opportunities. Despite political and economic struggles, Somalis are innovating to break the chronic cycle of vulnerability. Supported in many cases by the international Somali diaspora, people in Mogadishu are using technology to solve problems and tap into new markets. One initiative poised to accelerate this is the iRise Tech Hub, Mogadishu’s first innovation hub, co-founded by Awil Osman. iRise connects entrepreneurs, innovators, and startups to share ideas and collaborate on a variety of issues ranging from developing an online food delivery startup, to creating an open space for Somalis to incubate ideas. The Somali concept of Ilawadaag—roughly translated as ‘share with me’—is put into practice at iRise to help entrepreneurs get feedback and network with other innovators. iRise co-facilitated an innovation camp with UNDP last September, and will be launching its first incubation program for local entrepreneurs this week, challenging the idea that technology and incubation hubs are limited to high-income countries. With the right support, there is huge potential for home-grown digital solutions. Existing examples include the high prevalence and use mobile money, which allows rural and inaccessible communities to receive remittances and humanitarian support. The Aamin Ambulance service, which is a 24-hour ambulance service in Mogadishu, is the only first responder agency. Abaaraha crisis mapping platform provides relief responders with timely geospatial information. These cases demonstrate the breadth of innovation, which is not isolated from the contextual challenges in Mogadishu. During the devastating bombing in October 2017, iRise was busy coordinating efforts and established an ad hoc national emergency call center and information support team, collaborating with mobile operators, the government, and civil society. These initiatives could not have been possible without the internet. The internet brings local skills to an international market, and solutions to challenges in Somalia readily find applications elsewhere. However, one area that has lagged in Somalia is the availability of reliable and relevant data to support the implementation of businesses and social projects. Open tools like OpenStreetMap have the potential to help innovators overcome this hurdle by creating new solutions for accessing and producing extremely useful data. While this has not yet taken off in the private sector in Africa, projects like Missing Maps and the Humanitarian Openstreetmap Team have shown the potential for humanitarian and development work. Yet, the limitations to developing digital skills are significant. Although more and more residents are gaining access to high-speed internet, there are limited opportunities to acquire the skills that are needed to succeed in the digital economy. Moreover, as the Somali government mobilizes more revenue from its traditional sectors, it has become important for the country to diversify its economy through digital innovations. Supported by a small grant from the World Bank’s Youth Innovation Fund and a contribution from the Digital Development team, we are working with iRise to develop these skills and allow young people in Mogadishu to work on life-improving innovations. The Bank is also supporting the Mogadishu Watt Innovation Challenge, which aims to unearth and support energy innovators across Somalia who may have solutions that deliver affordable, reliable, and sustainable energy through new sources, and use creative business models to improve access to clean energy.

A young Somali man who married two women on the same night has told the BBC that he will encourage other men to do it. Bashir Mohamed said he courted both women for about eight months, and convinced them to marry him. “I used to bring them together to socialise with me at my home,” he told BBC Somali. “I used to say openly to both of them that I love them. They were satisfied,” he added. The advantage of marrying both at the same time was that they would not get “jealous” later, and would know from the beginning that they were in a polygamous marriage, Mr Mohamed said. He had taken two wives because he wanted “many children”. “I will encourage other men to do it, if they can afford it,” Mr Mohamed said. Polygamy is allowed in Somali culture, but it is unusual to marry two women at the same time, BBC Somali’s Mohamed Mohamed says. It has happened a few times in the last few years, suggesting that a new trend may be starting, he adds. Mr Mohamed married the two women, Iqra and Nimo, in Sinai village in the breakaway state of Somaliland on 22 June, the private Somaliland Informer news site reported soon after their Source: BBC

Muqdisho (Caasimada Online)-Waxaa inta badan magaalada Muqdisho ee caasimada Somalia ku yaalla xarumaha ugu badan dowlad Federaalka kuwaa oo ay u shaqo tagaan Kumanaan shaqaale. Xarumaha qaar ayaan ku shaqeyn amarada Wasaarada shaqada iyo Shaqaalaha, iyadoo ay xusid mudan tahay in xarun waliba ay u shaqeyso iskeeda. Amarka Wasaarada shaqada iyo shaqaalaha ayaan ka dhaqan galin dhammaan xarumaha dowlada markii laga reebo dhowr xarun oo aan sidaa usii badneyn. Amarada ugu badan ee aan dhaqan galin ayaa ah sida ‘’xiliga fasaxa 26 June’’ oo ah maalin muqadas ah. Shaqaalaha qaar ayaa saaka u shaqo tagay xarumahooda xili ay Wasaarada shaqada iyo shaqaalaha ku dhawaaqday inay fasaxan yihiin dhammaan shaqaalaha dowlada. Inta bada amarka dowlada federaalka Somalia ayaan si buuxda uga dhex shaqeyn Xarumaha dowlada taa oo muujineysa inaanu jirin xarun dhexe oo laga bixiyo amarada maadaama wax kama jiraan laga dhigay tan Wasaarada shaqada iyo shaqaalaha. Sidoo kale, Madaxda qaar ee ka tirsan dowlada ayaa xiliyada fasaxa sida 26 June shaqaalaha ku cadaadiya inay usoo shaqo tagaan Xafiisyadooda. Sida caadaduba aheyd shaqaalaha dowlada qaarkood ayaa saaka oo ku began 26 June u shaqo tagay xarumahooda iyadoo aan khiimo gaara lasiin maalinta qiimaha leh ee 26 June. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, dowlada Somalia ayaan looga fadhiyaa inay dhaqan galiso amaradeeda si aan meesha uga muuqan dowlado kala duwan oo ka shaqeeya Muqdisho.

Ankara (Caasimadda Online) – Tan iyo markii xisbigiisa Cadaaladda iyo Horumarka (AKP) ay awoodda la wareegtay sanadkii 2002, madaxweynaha Turkiga Recep Tayyip Erdoğan wali doorasho kuma guuldarreysan, haddii ay ahaan lahayd mid baarlamaan, gobol, madaxweynenimo ama afti. Aragtiyo aan tiro lahayn, haddii ay ahaan lahaayeen kuwo cilmiyeysan ama kuwo kale, ayaa isku dayey in ay sharraxaad ka bixiyaan sababta uu isu bedeli waayey. Mucaaradka Erdoğan, Turki ha ahaadeen ama yeysan ahaan, waxa ay Erdoğan ku eedeeyaan xukunkiisa keli telisnimo ee Islaameenta dal mar ahaan jiray cilmaani. Aragtidooda, Erdoğan waxa uu xabsi geliyey qaran 80 milyan ah. Taas run ma aha Milicsi deg deg ah oo lagu sameeyo xaqiiqooyinka iyo tirada Turkiga ayaa taas sharraxaya sababteeda. Waxaa si cajiib ah isu barbar yaal siyaasadda bulsho ee Turkiga dhexdooda caadiga ah iyo aragtida caalamku ka qabo Islaamiyadda Erdoğan. Waxaa lagu murmi karaa, in Erdoğan dhinac, waxa uu Turkiga caadiga ah arkaan ay tahay marka uu isku arko muraayadda. Waa dhab in Erdoğan ugu guuleystay maalaayiin codad ah mashaariicdiisa waa weyn ee cajiibka ah oo ay ka mid tahay Masjidka weyn ee Istanbul hill; madaarkii saddexaad (oo ka mid ah kuwa ugu waa weyn dunida); waddooyin, jidadka waa weyn, iyo buundooyinka kale ee dhulka Anatolian-ka (Walow ay Turkiga u muuqato shirkadda dhaqaale oo dhismo). Laakiin qofka waa in uu tixgeliyaa muuqaalka bulshada coddeysa. Tirada qoysaska dowladda Erdoğan ka helay dhuxusha bilaashka ah waxa ay 1.1 million ka korortay 2003 iyada oo gaartay 2.15 million 2014. Tani ma war wacan baa mise mid xun? Sare u kaca xad xad dhaafka ahaa ee baahidda qoysaska saboolka ah taas oo muujineysay in malaayiin aysan ku faraxsaneyn dowladnimada Erdoğan. Hadda waa cagsigeeda: Turkidu wey faraxsan yihiin maxaa yeelay waxa ay qoysadkooda u helaan dhuxul bilaash ah. Turkidu waxa ay dhuxusha bilaashka ah iyo arimaha kale ee bulshada ka jecleyn in ay dalkooda ka hirgasho dimoqraadiyad. Turkiga waxa uu kaalinta 155-aad ka galay xoriyadda saxaafadda oo 180 dunida guud ahaan laga qiimeeyey. Ku dhawaad 200 oo wariye ayaa ku jira xabsiyada halka 120 kale ay dunida ka shaqeeyaan – laakiin boqolkiiba lixdan (60%) waxa ay aaminsan yihiin xadidaadda warbaahinta in ay xalaal tahay. Ma daneeyaan xassiloonida gudaha, sidoo kale Turkiga waxa ay 146 kaga jiraan nabadda aduunka. Cel celis ahaan waxaa maalintii lagu dilaa 5.6 dalka, tiradaas waxaa ku jira weeraro argagixiso. Cel celis ahaan waxaa dhaca 18 weerar jireed (Physical attack) oo loo geysto shaqsiyaadka maalintii. Sida laga soo xiganayo cilmi-baaris la sameeyey 2014, boqolleyda 11.3% dadka Turkida ISIS uma arkaan urur argagixiso. Laakiin waagii hore laba sano oo keliya, ISIS waxa ay 304 qof ku dishay 14 weerarro culus ahaa gudaha Turkiga. Dabcan, dhimasho mar walba kuma timaado adeegsiga qoryaha iyo qaraxyada. 10kii sano ee ka horreeyey 2016, 43 kun oo Turki ah waxa ay naftooda ku waayeen shilal baabuur oo halis ahaa. Turkida waxa ay ku noolaayeen xukun deg deg ah tan iyo Luulyo 2016, markaas oo koox ka mid ah saraakiisha Turkiga ay ku sameeyeen dowladda Erdoğan afgebi dhicisoobay. Wixii intaa ka dambeeyey waxaa gaalshiraha loo taxaabay in ka bada 50,000 oo qof, waxaa shaqadii laga eryey 150,000 00 shaqaale rayid ahaa. Wixii ka dambeeyey mashaqadii 12kii Sebteembar, afgembigii ciidamada qalabka sida ee 1980, dadka xarumaha aqoonta xoogga looga eryey waxa ay ku koobneyd 120 laakiin 5,000 aqoonyahanno ka badan ayaa xoog looga eryey kaddib isku daygii afbembi ee dhicisoobay 2016. Xaakimiin sare oo Turki ah ayaa daaha ka rogay in isku darka 6.9 milyan Turki ah, ama ku dhawaad boqolkiiba sagaal (9%) ee bulshada oo dhan in ay ku socoto baaritaan sharci. Aynu darisno waxbarashada. Turkiga, cel celiska dadka wax barta da’doodu waa 6.51 sano. Dadka da’doodu u dhexeyso 18-24, keliya 26% waa lab 18.9% waa deddig. Agoosto 2017-dii hay’adda OECD Regional Well-Being Index waxa ay soo bandhigtay in Turkiga hoos u dhac 362 ah dhinaca waxbarashada uga yimi, keliya 16% Turki da’doodu tahay da’da 18-ka ayaa ka qallin jebiyey jaamacadaha. Tirada Turkida ee raba in ay bartaan imam-nimada ayaa sare ugu kacday 60,000 2002 iyaga oo gaaray 1.2 milyan 2014. Laakiin waa kuma Turkigaaga caadiga ah, adiga oo bulsho ahaan u hadlaya? 74% Turkida waxa ay isu aqoonsan yihiin dad guta dhammaan waajibaadka Islaamka. 95% waxa ay dhahaan waligood fasax uma aadin dibedda, 70% waxa ay dhahaan waligood kama qeybgalin bandhigyo fanned ama dhaqan. 74% waxa ay isku arkaan in ay yihiin hiddo raac asal raac ama asal Islaamiyiin asal raac ah – taas oo ka mid ah sababaha caanka ka dhigtay Erdoğan, gaar ahaan gudaha Turkida asal raaca ah. Xisaab ahaan waxa ay macno u yeeleysaa Erdoğan oo aan qarsan sida uu u neceb yahay isticmaalka khamriga sababo diin awgeed, in uu caan ka yahay dalka halkaas oo 79% dhaha in aysan waligood cabbib khamri (Isticmaalka cabbiska khamriga qofkiiba dalka Turkiga waxa uu ka hooseeyaa 1.5 Litir, marka la bar bar dhigo , tusaale ahaan Australia oo uu qofkii ka cabbo 12 Litir. Hadana Turkidu waa sabool. Dhakhliga qofkii soo gala waa $10,000, dalka Turkiga dadkiisu waxaa dakhli ahaan qofkiiba u soo gala lacag u dhexeysa $180 iyo $1,280 bishii – 56% waxaa soo gala $180 iyo 510$ bishii. Laakiin marka laga yimaado hoos u dhaca dalka, farxaddu waxa ay u muuqata ereyga Turkida. Cilmi baaris la sameeyey 2015, 56.6% wey faraxsanaayeen. 2016, kaddib kumanaan ku waxyeeloobay weerar argagixisnimo, lagu sigtay dagaal sokeeye, xukun deg deg ah, saboolnimo, tobanaan kun oo maxaabiis cusub ah, dilal, weerarro, kumaan dhismo waddoyinka shilalka ka dhaca ah, tiradaas farxadda waxa ay sare ugu kacday 61.3%. Turkidu waxa ay aaminsanyihiin in ay haystaan hoggaamiye ashqaraar ah kaas oo dalkooda markasta mid wanaagsan ka dhigay. Ha dhibin nabadoodda asal raaca ah.
