This forum is broken. It posts everything I write twice. War what did you people do to the place?

And you're right that they are irrelevant in this movie, but what are the chance of them being cast or given some sort of role in future Somali based movie/drama or tv show. Foot in the door. The rest is really up to these Somali actors and their personalities (and no role is ever irrelevant, not even the guy who dies in the first second of a movie).

^^ Salaan sare duqa. I would have never chosen a better thread to come back to. Ciyaal ayaa ciyaal wax ka sheegaya!

^^ I went to the Bahamas like Juxa said (but when she followed me there, I had to run back).

Stuff and nonsense.

First in, AGAIN!

^^ :D (no comment).

Six hours to go (ten for the other). I think something bit me in the eye. It hurts every time I close it but I'm feeling sleepy and keep closing it. Heh. (Salaam all and Ramadan Kareem).

Poor diet of rice and meat, too much tea, too much sitting around and a lack of sunshine could all be reasons. Back home you will see elderly folk of 80s+ who are active and still running around. Genetics and lifestyle. Back home? Isn’t that the same place where TB is prevalent, Malaria is all over the place and there isn’t much healthcare? I love your anecdotal proofs, Norf. :]

^^ Don't forget Pakistan (when Nawaz Sharif was ousted by Musharaf) or Iraq (when Nouri Al Maliki ousted the elected president). It is a democracy as long as the "right" candadite is chosen. As for the Egyptians; well this is not limited to them (as I've shown above). In this world of social networking ANY country can be victim to what is taking place in Egypt. The UK had it witht he riots of 2011, Turkey had it recently with that park thing, etc, etc. Crazy mobs are not exclusive to Egypt or the Arab world.

Stuff and nonsense.

I wasn't even trying! :D Morning all.

I see we have crowd trouble in the game, holigans?

Counter attacking football with Omer Abdirashid playing in the number eleven position? I now know where the bottle neck has been all along! :D

I think I know what I'm going to do this Saturday. :D

^^ Adna waad iska hadasha, saaxib. The whole point of PWC being brought in was because none of these minstries had the capacity to carry out such work. Naxar, Did you read the articles you posted, saaxib? I am not aware of the details of the deal but simply going by what you yourself posted. In it, it says that PWC will act as a go between. It will recieve the money, inform the ministries that it did. They request to withdraw the money and show PWC that the request matches with their budgets. They sign for it and provide reciepts. As long as the above is done, PWC (according to the evidence from your reports) would have done their job. The only sticking point is the 15 day reporting. But who is to know that they have not been doing that every fifteen days since 2009? Who knows if the UN was turning a blind eye to it now? At any rate, the UN would not have found the name of the cashier or the Colonel without having been given that information by PWC (remember the signatures and receipts?). The problem can't be with PWC, saaaxib. The problem is coming right from inside Somalia.

^^ Did you see the reasons? https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/khat (Hadaw ha "aax" yaan lagaa maqlin uun).

:D

Why Norf & Juxa? Anigu maxa iga galay Hassan Sheikh or whoever is flavour of the month for Somalis dee. The idea itself is "badownimo" wax fahma. Otherwise, I hope you're all having a great morning.

^^ How did the UN report manage to get access to such information without a full audit? How did they manage to get the name of the cashier and the amounts withdrawn by him?

They were brought in with clear purpose and unless they speak up and clarify what happened, they are part of the problem. Am starting to think shaqaalaha shirkadan ay meesha uu dirsatay in aad tihin lol Their purpose was to ensure that the money goes to the right areas. However, their job is not to run the country. These are accountants, Naxar. As long as they get invoices, receipts and records of payment, they have no business in actually proving that such receipts are genuine. Otherwise, they'll be forced to run the Somali central bank and that is not their job. As for auditing; all they have to do is point the shortcomings to the Somali government (or donors) whenever an audit is done. And even there, it is not their job to publish their audits to the whole world (unless this was agreed to by the government and the donors). The problem is with Somalia's internal auditors and not the external ones, saaxib. p.s. PWC is a business like any other. They may benefit from the corruption (since they get a commission for every "delivery"), however, they have a reputation to uphold and, frankly, the money made in Somalia is not large enough for them to risk their world renowned name. The job they do here, though seemingly not of any use, is actually very important. It may not stop corruption but it pinpoints exactly where the fault lines exist. It's always been the job of the donors and the Somali government to ensure that these fault lines are fixed.
