Weligood ma i taabanin, handadaad ley raaxada iigaga qaadi jireen. Homework-oodana waan u qori jirey. I was so happy when I found out I was going to Xaawo Taako. Alxamdulilaah.

Thriving Somali economy emerges in 'Little Mogadishu' in Kenya CPIFINANCIAL Sunday, March 27, 2011 Despite the collapse of the formal economy and of central government in Somalia, a remarkably resilient 'parallel' economy has emerged. Once a predominantly Asian residential estate, Eastleigh has become the centre of Somali entrepreneurship in Kenya and is popularly referred to as 'Little Mogadishu'. Eastleigh is at the centre of a network of trade that connects the Arabian Peninsula, Somalia, Kenya and East and Central Africa, with the Somali business community as the common thread, says Chatham House. Somali Investment in Kenya charts the rise of Somali entrepreneurship in Kenya in the context of economic breakdown in Somalia, its impact on the Kenyan economy and the advantages and challenges. “Two factors characterise Somali business activities in Kenya. First, they operate largely outside the formal economy of the country. Secondly, they rely heavily, but not exclusively, on clan or kinship networks of trust in their business dealings,” Chatham House said. Somali entrepreneurs have introduced new concepts of business in Nairobi. Instead of going to a bank, preparing a business plan and asking for a loan, as in the past, these entrepreneurs now prepare a business plan, sell shares and implement the project. Somali-owned businesses have also created jobs for local unskilled workers. Growing Somali investment in Nairobi has also attracted banks and other service-providers, demonstrating that urban refugees are not necessarily a burden on the state and can be an economic asset. “Although business rivalry often leads to overblown accusations that Somali businesses are funded from the proceeds of piracy or criminality, there are some genuine national security concerns about activities within the Somali communities in Kenya. The long, open border between the two countries provides easy access for the supporters of extremist groups such as Al-Shabaab and Hizbul Islam to recruit and raise funds in Kenya,” Chatham House said. “Eastleigh, Nairobi, Kenya and East Africa have benefited from the entrepreneurial activities of Somali business people. These activities have developed despite, or even because of, the collapse of Somalia. The experience has not been without problems. Governments in the region and internationally should think about ways of protecting investors and bringing more of these activities in the formal economy,” it added.

Sensei, ciyaal Xamar luqadooda soo Af-Soomali ma ahan?

Gaadhigani GTda ah oo ahaa nooca loo yaqaano (MarkII) kana mid ahaa Gaadhiika dawlada ee qaada xubnaha shaaqalada ka hawl gala xafiiska Hanti dhawraha Guud ee qaranka, oo sumadiisuna tahay Somaliland GT 499, ayaa maanta abaaro 10:30 subaxnimo u shufbeelay xafiis kaasi hortiisa, iyada oo markii dambena intii aanu keeni qarax ay kooxaha damdamiska Caasimadu ku Guulaysteen in ay Bakhtiiyaan. Ilaayo hada lama garanayo sida uu dabkaasi u kacay iyo waxa uu ka dhashay, sida ay sheegayaa dad Goobjoog ahi waxa mar kaliya lagu war helay Olollka iyo qiiqa gaadhigaasi ka kacaya, isla markiiba waxa bakhtiinta gaadhigaasi u hawl galay dadkii shacanka ahaa ee Goobtaasi ka ag-dhawaa, iyada oo lala boobay biyo iyo ciid wixii ay gacantu haleeshay. Intaasi ka dib waxa Goobtii soo gaadhay Gaadhiga dab-damiska Dawalada hoose ee Caasimada, laakiin nasiib daro dadkii goobtaas ku sugnaa oo haween iyo dhalinyaro arday ah u badanaa ayaa Shiid ooda kaga qaaday gaadhigii damdamiska ahaa, iyaga oo ka jabiyey muraayada hore, waxana ay ku cababayeen in uu habsaamay oo aanu markiiba iman, waxa markiiba dadkii waaweynaa iyo masuuliyiintii isku dayeenin ay dajiyaan Dadkaasi kacsanaa, iyaga oo ku guulasytay in uu dabdamiskii shaqadiisa bilaabo. Dadaal adag oo hawl badan qaatay ka dib waxa ay kooxaha dab-damisku ku guulayteen in ay gaadhigii iyo geed uu hoostaanaaba bakhtiiyaan.
