Time will tell but for now it doesn't look to good having double PHDS doesn't make one a good politician or even a great administrator. Remember the environment he is working in Somalia a war torn country, full of animosities.If it was about the degrees allot of people would make great leaders and politicians but this is not the case. Hommunculus thats good that u are being neutral but in Somali politics there is no win win situation its winner takes all, the Mogadishu elites want to score for their people, and ofcourse some will be marginalized in Puntland and be left out. And as the late Faroole said Federalism is what will make Somalia and ignorance of the Mogadishu leaders will break Somalia, for he believed that if Federalism is not implemented his people loses.

Homunculus i thought u were a maakhirate , the maakhir folks are very dissatisfied with cabdi cawars new cabinet. Read this I dont believe u have allot of trust in him http://www.wardheernews.com/open-letter-new-president-0f-putntland-state-somalia-dr-abdiweli-mohamed-ali-gas/

Che but the clever Germans got eventually Berlin back and united their country east and west i still believe people of nordic stock are much more superior and warrior type than the Russians. Hitler was fighting on to fronts u got to give it to the man the vision of one Europe maybe not under tight German control but today the European union is a regional power in the world.

Dawasho wacan

Samafal cabdi cawar is not a bad cat he is runti ciyaal to the politics maha mature siyaasi ah so there is no reason to hate him. But the fact is that this man conceded allot to the president of Somalia by this visit alone tells you where he stands we shall see where it goes from here. But it doesn't look to good since cabdi cawar was elected president the galgala movement is on the revival lets see how it goes.

Look@ President hassans smile

Bay and bakool and lower shabelle one state this will bring a conflict with the the middle shabelle and banadir state. We will see.

Galbeedi you are right we need a more decentralization

Mooge gaas does not have what it takes to keep damuljadid at bay i am convinced this visit is the visit that paves the road for an agreement signed in the near future in a few months. And i dont think Farah Topaz will review the constitution and i dont think these will be the damands of Gaas. Gaas served Mogadishu before he will serve Mogadishu once again, Faroole was like Puntland First and Puntland is the father and mother of Somalia afkiinana reer Muqdishow dawlada Puntland bara. When Faroole felt that Mogadishu is trying to undermine him and his role in Somalia, He played hard ball remember his historic visit to Kenya and the most notorious Mogadishu elders Axmed diiriye and xaad were having sleepless nights. Kan gaas markan dhegeysto hurda i qabata, when hassan sheikh visited Puntland in garowe faroole attitude was Mogadishu will come to garowe , Garowe will not come to Mogadishu. Remember when he said Madaxweyne dalakan iyo dadkani wa Puntland ciidankani wa ciidanki Puntland, it was a hidden message that Puntland is secure and it has no Foreign troops.But maybe its to early to compare gaas to faroole lets wait and see what he does in the next 90 days and give him some time.

The.5 owner of universal TV Goormu nala kaftamaya ma anaga is kaftan naqanaa?

There will always be problems who ever leads people who were not happy when rayaale was president when cigaal was president when tuur was president. but i have to say Kulmiye government has brought allot of change It tripled the SL budget it tripled the salaries of the SL civil servants its building long high ways its bring investors to the land. Somaliland is much better than before. Somaliland is stronger more united and it has a vision and it has credible leaders though there are still shortcomings but SL is moving forward and thats what matters. The only news that is coming from hargeisa is that the SL government is getting rid of Koonfurian TV stations such as universal and thats not of a big deal.Somaliland will have voter registration soon Siilaanyo build 2 bridges in hargeisa most roads inside the big cities have been reconstructed the borama dila road is almost finished.The country is under construction the salaxlay road is under construction the dawga cad road is under construction. The government is encouraging local businesses to industrialize. The army officers of the country are ranked.

reer awdal goorme dibjirin iyo xawalay u talin jireen they have cuqaal salaadin ugaasyaho aqoonyahanoow how do we know kan ilkaha dhadheer is reer awdal ambu yahay oromadi Siilaanyo wadanka ka saaray.

necbyaaha naagaha Somalida oo hoostooda ka sheekeyaa ilahoow ino ceeb astur dumarka. waxyalahaga laga hadlin ba jira but than again i am just an old man what do i know.

ilaahay ha u naxariistoo cabdirsaaq nin fiican bu aha oo wadani ah

Dont they ever learn that they are not welcome in Somaliland , wey iska imanayaan uun. Maybe jeelka maandheera bay aad u jecelyihin.

If Somaliland is a joke what is Somalia lol How many Journalists have been gunned down in Somalia in the last few years How many journalists have been gunned down in Somaliland in the past 23 years , just one. Siilaanyo should ban all Koonfurian media from Somaliland

Time will tell Mooge we know Culusow is working hard behind the scene to sign a deal with Gaas in order to receive the pledge aid and the US state department were not to positive about Hassan sheikhs government because of internal infighting with in the government ranks ,Hassan wants to change all of that and change the image of the SFG. Gaas is new to the game he has never been the President of Puntland he served as prime minister of the former TFG, today he is on the other side, lets hope for Gaas that faroole advised him well. By the way Abdirisaaq xaaji Xuseen wamaxay sabbabta xamar loogu aasayo manu reer Puntland ahayn. Nuune wayahay and ramadan kariim.

After the out going president Mr Faroole left a remarkable legacy to the Puntland people and the rest of the Somali speaking people in the way he conducted his affairs with his foes and where he stood in the political spectrum of Somalia. The new inexperienced President by the name of Abdi cawar has been elected last month and has already compromised on what faroole was building the past 1 year and a half on the way the federal structure of Somalia some times the body language tells you allot of how one fits the picture. The new president of Puntland was so thrilled to go to Mogadishu before some of the articles of the constitution has still not been met or the demands faroole set for reer puntland to restore relations with Mogadishu had to be one that was agreed on and based on the federal constitution. Having said that Faroole on the other hand from day one played hard ball in order for the puntland interest in the larger Somalia to be respected, He understood what the government in Somalia was concocting i give it less than 3 months before relations between the SFG and puntland are restored, this is indeed a win for mudane xassan sheikh maxamuud, who now can breath and 2014 will be indeed a good year for Hassan sheikh maxamuud for he outmaneuvered the novice cabdi cawar. Somalis put allot of Weight on education and he has double phd and master degrees but having allot of degrees doesn't make one a shrewd politician in the case of the current president of Puntland. Picture says it allot look how relaxed Hassan sheikh is raisal wasaaraha dhukaran ba ka daran

So he was not even a Minister as Garmaqaate claimed

Guys leave Sultan Faisal alone he is not diplomatic but he is a patriotic Somalilander , yaan shaadka laga wasakheyn Faisal ali.

^^ Funny Che if the English were our buddies they would've build skyscrapers for us in Somaliland. And we could have inherited British infrastructure Laakin the greedy brits waxba laga ma faididin.

They should have been fought both with political means and militaristic means, But using Jihadism Takfirims has never brought victory or closer to independence not in Somaliland and certainly not Sudan. I believe if the Dervishes used other tactics and used a more nationalistic ideology and had better leadership it could have lasted longer. So now answer my Question who would've Sayid Muhammad abdulla hassan supported if he was put to live today again ,the Amisom guarded Somali government or the Shabaab Youth. All groups such as Shabaab though the dervishes both in Sudan and Somaliland were destine to fail boko haram in Nigeria is destine to fail. Alqaeda will fail Al nusra front will fail ansaaar al diin in Mali will fail, History has proven that.

Alshabaab have the same argument they are constant under drone attacks and not only Alshabaab Militants are the targets but also innocent Somalis,an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth.
