Somaliland's FM Ms. Edna Aden Isma'il who is currently touring the United States of America attended a special reception in Minnesota marking the 14th Annual Celebration of Somaliland's Independence. The Minister gave a lively speech in English Language to the participants whom included a sizeable number of Americans. The minister then showed to the audience 3 Somaliland passports in which she said that she uses for her travelling. The passports had African, European and American visas on them. Here is a report from Hadhwanaagnews. -------- HWN-(Minnesota)-Saturday, May 14th, 2005 the Somaliland Community in Minnesota held the 14th annual Celebration of Somaliland’s Independence in Minneapolis. It was a memorable evening with a keynote speaker H.E. Ms. Edna A. Ismail, the Minister of Foreign Affairs at hand and entertainment by new and vibrant Somaliland performers that shook the ground with Somaliland song themes (Somaliland Dalkayga…Somaliland Dadkayga..). Those who had envisaged a colorful night of amazing speeches, fascinating people and an unbeatable atmosphere were not to be disappointed with this year's Annual Celebration, with a sensational party being enjoyed. First, H. E. Ms. Edna was welcomed to the floor and since there were some non-Somali speaking guests in the crowd, has chosen to deliver her emotional, yet precise speech in English. She reported the progress Somaliland has made over the years and reminded the crowd the need to be vigilant, continue support the efforts to rebuild their country, and to create grass roots organizations that coordinate the road to recognition. H.E. Edna talked in detail about the meaning of freedom and aspirations to become a member of the international community. She mentioned the positive reaction she has gotten from the countless places and countries she has visited. When She was explaining how communities around the world are now warming up to the cause of Somaliland, Edna said, â€â€¦.Somaliland enjoys many friends in Africa and Europe who are very sympathetic to our cause and no one will not be able to stop us reach our goal and our determination to secure our place in communities would move mountainsâ€. “.Our persistent had paid off and we will never give up until the day we get what we deserve.†She added. When Edna showed her three Somaliland passports attached to each other to the audiences and told them that she travels with Somaliland passport with US, European and African visa on the passports, the crowd went uproar with chants and screams. Anyone near the celebration hole would feel the pride and joy that being displayed. Edna concluded her speech by thanking the community for inviting her to the event and asked them to work together, to depend on each other, respect their differences and remember their country they left behind. Other prominent Somaliland Minnesotans have also spoken at the gathering. Professor Ibrahim Ayeh delivered a historic speech that explained the road to freedom and vision of the future. Prof. Ayeh has emphasized what made Somaliland unique; it is strength and diversity, reconciliation process and the prosperity ahead. He asked people to enjoy their success and reject back words, tribalism and focus positive result that had able them to be were they are today.

As much as this is a very deplorable development, one needs to see it as a general trend per say under Rayaale's government rather then a particular incident in which the Gaboye were targeted. The Rayaale administration has been overly heavy handed to similar peaceful demonstrators before too. Not to mention, this very same issue of demonstration was indeed a hot topic recently when the interior minister anounced a total BAN on all demonstration (peaceful or otherwise) that are not permitted by his ministry. A move that was heavly criticises for and was denounced by Somalilanders inside and outside. While recognising the overall plight and injustice faced by the minority clans in Somaliland (Which in comparison has better record than their peers in South - nontheless still unacceptable in democratic Somaliland), we need to view this particular incident as rather part of a wider picture or general trend by this administration of violating the indivitual rights of Somaliland citizens.

Leader asks nationals to unite against enemies of Somaliland's existence May 18, 2005 2:57pm The president of the Republic of Somaliland, Hon Dahir Riyale Kahin, today addressed the Somaliland people at the Freedom Square in Hargeysa. The occasion was to mark the 14th anniversary of Somaliland's independence and secession [from the rest of Somalia], with celebrations going on till this moment. Addressing the public, President Kahin touched on internal and external political affairs, the economy and security issues. He began by congratulating the Somaliland people and asked God to accept their aspirations to become one of the [recognized] nations in the world. He said, soon after taking over the office in 2002, he promised on how to strengthen democratic (?institutions) and how to inform the international community about Somaliland, which has yielded fruits today. The president said the government was putting extra efforts to achieve international recognition, and urged the public to unite against anything that could harm or oppose the existence and recognition of Somaliland. He said constructive opposition was acceptable issue, but (mere opposition) is not required in this country. He called for a joint work and cooperation towards the country's development, reconstruction and ways of exposing that to the outside world. BBC Monitoring Copyright © 2005 BBC Monitoring/BBC.

Munaasabado kale, oo loogu dabbaaldegayo maalinta goonni isu taagga Somaliland ee 18ka may, ayaa waxay ka dhaceen saaka badi magaalooyinka waaweyn , hase-yeeshee, Hargeysa waxay u ahayd markii ugu horreysay ee 14kii sannadood ee ugu danbeeyay lagu qabtay dabaaldeggan fagaaraha beerta xorriyadda, oo ahayd goobtii ugu horreysay ee calan Soomaaliyeed oo xor ah laga qotomiyo 26kii june 1960kii.

Walaalayaal, 2002-dii markii la ii dhaaryey xilka Madaxweyne-nimo ee uu geeriyooday Madaxweynihii hore alla ha u naxariistee Marxuum, Maxamed Xaaji Ibraahim Cigaal, waxan idiinka ballan qaaday khudbadaydii 18 May 2002, in aan culays saari doono, gooni isu taagga Jiritaanka Somaliland oo noqon doonta mudnaanta koowaad. Waxaan isla markiiba bilaabay in aan xawli galiyo laba arrimood, ta koowaad oo ahayd:- Sidii qaddiyadeena aynu u gaadhsiin lahayn Caalamka, gaar ahaan dalalka Africa oo intooda badani ay ka qarsoonayd taariikhda xornimadeena. Waxaan qoraallo ka hadlaya qaddiyadeena illa markii calanka aan helnay gaadhsiiyay, Wadamada Bariga, Waqooyiga, Koonfurta, Galbeedka Africa, iyo Europe, America iyo Asia. Taas oo maanta aad wada ogtihiin, midhaha ka soo baxay oo garawsiiyay beesha caalamka inaan nahay qaran jira oo aan la dafiri karin waxay qabsadeen. Arrintani kuma iman hadiyad, balse waxay ku timid shaqo ay xukuumaddu qabatay. Qodobka 2aad ee aan ballan qaaday, wuxuu ahaa in aan taabo galliyo Dimuqraadiyadda iyo tartanka xorta ah ee Axsaabta badan, oo xukuumadda horayaallay intii aanu dhiman Madaxweynaheenii hore ee geeriyooday, Alla ha u naxariistee.

Doorashooyinkaasi, waxay daaha ka qaadeen oo ay u iftiimiyeen Beesha Caalamka, in aan nahay ummad qorshe iyo barnaamij taxane ah oo dal dhiseed leh, waxa inoo hadhsani waxay ahayd dhammaystirkii hannaanka Dimuqraadiyada oo ay inooga hadhsanayd taa Baarlamaanku. Waxaad ogtihiin, sidii Mas’uuliyaddu ku dheehnayd ee aynu si nabadgelyo ah oo sharciga waafaqsan, aan arrintaa ugu furdaaminay, anakoo iskaashanayna Goleyaasha Sharci Dejinta. Axsaabta Mucaaridka, Komiishanka Qaranka iyo Shacbiguba taageero buuxda ayay arrintaasi xal u helidda Golaha Wakiilada ka bixiyeen. Waxa kaloo jirta, in Xukuumaddu xoogga saartay sidii ay kor ugu qaadi lahayd tamarta iyo tayada ciidamada Amniga Guud ahaan. Waxaad ogtihiin, illaa hadda in aaney ciidamadeenu darajooyin sidan, si qiimeyn loogu sameeyo mujaahidiintii dalkan halganka u soo gashay, darajooyinka ay mudan yihiina loo siiyo, dufcaddii u horeysay ayaa kasoo qallin jabisay Kulliyadd Ciidan, kuwaas ayaa noqonaya kuwa ugu horreeya ee aan ku bilaabayo darajo siinta Ciidamada, inta aanu dhammaan sannadkan hadduu eebe yidhaa. Kuwa kale, waxaan u diri doonaa kulliyaddaha Ciidan ee dalalka aanu saaxiib-ka nahay iyo kulliyad ciidan oo aan dalka ka samaynayno, taas oo noqon doonta Xaruntii hore Ciidamada ee Cadaadley oo loogu diyaarin doono Saraakiisha Ciidamada Somaliland inta hadba u qalanta, iyadoo ay maamuli doonaan macallimiinna ka noqon doonaan Saraakiishii waaweynayd ee dalkan u dhalatay, taas oo wax wayn ka tari doonta, habka dhismaha ciidamada Qaran uu leeyahay oo hore uga maqnayd dhismaheena. Waxaad garan karaysaan hawshaasi in aanay ahayn hawl dhib yar, idinkoo og mudada ay soo qaadatay ee ay jiitamaysay. Dadka u badan ee qorshaha loogu tallo galay waa Mujaahidiintii SNM ee dalkan u soo halgantay. Waxa Kale oo ay Xukuumaddu bar bar waday ka sokow Dhismaha Ciidanka, Dimuqraadiyadda, Dib-u dhiska wadooyinka iyo guud ahaan dhammaan barnaamijyada horumarineed inta hadba awoodu saamaxayso. Waxa xusid mudan, in waxyaabahaa inoo qabsoomay ee ay ka mid tahay Waxbarashada, Caafimaadka, Biyaha ay wada jir u suurto galiyeen Xukuumadda iyo Shacbigu, Caalamkuna qiray sida warbixinihii u dambeeyay ee ay qoreen:- Royal Institute, ICG ( International Crisis Group) , South African Institute of International Affairs iyo warbixintii ay inaga soo saareen wadamada daneeya arrimaheena sida Maraykanka, Ingiriiska iyo kuwa kale, iyo warbaahinta caalamiga ah sida, Al-Jazeera, Gulf Information Center, Sub-saharan Informer iyo BBC-da. Khasaarihii aafada Roobabku dalka u geysteen, Xukuumad ahaan waxba ka hagran mayno, waana waajibaad qaran oo Xukuumadda saaran, wixii taagtayo ahna waanu ku hawlan nahay sidii aanu u wax uga qaban lahayn. Waxa dhawaan halkan inoogu yimid,wefti ballaadhan oo ka socda African Union-ka (AU) oon ku martiqaaday dalkeena si ay qiimeyn ugu sameeyaan, waxaan mudannahay una horgeeyaan wadama Africa oo aad ogtihiin waxay idinka ballan qaadeen. Hadaba, cidda ka masuugaysa waxbqabadkaasi, ee leh jar baan ka laad laadnaa miyey Nasteexo u yihiin, lexo jeclo se ma ka haysaa jiritaanka Somaliland? “ Waa su’aal dadweynoow aan idinka idiin daayeyâ€. Beryahan, waxa soc socda in Axsaabteena Xisbi ka midi uu Goleyaasha Qaranka (Golaha Wakiilada) uu qaar ka mida ku baayacayo $ 1500 (Kun iyo shan boqol oo dollar) qaata oo Madaxweynaha rida. Walaalayaal, Madaxweynaha aad maalin cad doorateen, shakhsiyaad kun iyo shan boqol qaatay inay ridaan miyaad geydaan. Dadka noocaas u fikiraya mayna caayeen ummadnimadiina oo aanay ku gefayn qaranimadeena? Waxaanse leeyahay, ragga hammuunta u qaba madaxtinamada kursigoow, anigo oo saddex sanno kursiga ha laguu kordhiyo la leeyahay, ayaan badka soo dhigay anoo leh Somaliland doorashay wax ku gaadhaysaa xataa haddii layga helayo kursiga. Waxaan idin leeyahay saddex sanno ayaa idiinka hadhay in aad kursigan tartan u gashaan ummadda Somaliland waxay go’aansatay in nidaamka Dimuqraadiyadda ee Caalamku ku nool yahay ay ku noolaato. Inqilaab dhalanteed ihi suuro gal kama noqonayo Somaliland, shacbigii I doortay, ayaa ilaashanaya jiritaanka Qaranka. Waxaanse u arkaa ujeedada aad ka leedihiin arrimaha aad wadaan, in uu naxdin, niyad jab iyo filanwaa ku ridayo inta saaxiib-ka inala ah ee jecel Somaliland iyo inta ka soo qayb qaadatay dib-u-dhiska iyo horumarka Dimoqraadiyadda Somaliland. Wuxuu tilmaan bilaw ah u yahay, in Caalamka ina fiirsanayey isku qanciyo in Somaliland la mid tahay qaybaha kale ee Somalia oo aanay waxba dhaamin. Waxay abuuraysaa, kala shaki iyo qaybsanaan ku timaada dadweynaha midoobay ee Somaliland. Waxayna sabab u noqonaysaa ama xalaal ka dhigaysaa in lagu tunto oo la xurmayn waayo shuruucda dalka u taalla. Waxay daliil iyo markhaati u tahay, in laga soo horjeedo Doorashada soo socota, balse marmarsiiyo laga dhiganayo muran iyo dood lagu mashquuliyo Dawladda iyo Shacbiga, si looga jeesto Doorashada la cayimay September 15keeda 2005. Taas oo aan u arko inay tahay qaybtii ugu dambeeyay ee qaranimadeena sharci ka dhigayey. Waxaan leeyahay dadka fikraddaa wada, ma aha dad dan ka leh dalka iyo shacbiga ku nool intaba, balse waa dad u adeegaya cadawga Somaliland oo markay kaabiga isa soo taagto aqoonsiga Somaliland dagaalkii ugu dambeeyay ku qaadaya. Arrinta khal khal gelinta ee socota, waxay taageero u yihiin inta jecel Somaliland fur-furkeeda iyo baabiinteeda. Safarkaygii u dambeeyay markaan soo marayey Addis Ababa, dad baa igu yidhi “ Haka biqina dibad ee gudihiina ka baqaâ€. Arrintaasi way ii dhadhami wayday wakhtigaasi, haddayse ii muuqataa wixii la ii sheegayay. Ummad yahay, xalaal maalin cad baa la quutaa, Dibadda Cadawga ka imanaya aniga iyo Xukuumaddayda ayaa idinkaga filan, ee idinkana, waxaan idiinka magan ahay, Makasta gudaha ee wax duminaysa Waxaan leeyahay maamuus ka xayuubinta Madaxweyne, waxay ku urur santay khiyaamo Qaran (High Treason) iyo ku xad gudub Dastuur, sida ku cad Qodobka 96aad ee Dastuurka Qaranka JSL. Ma African Union-kii, aan u keenay in qaddiyadeena ay Africa horgeeyaan baa khiyaamo qaran noqday oo dambi laga dhigayaa? Ma Doorashadii Baarlamaanka ha la gallo baa dambi Dastuuriya noqotay, oo ummad-yahay muddo dheer aad sugayseen?. Isku soo wada duub, shacbi weynaha mid baan leeyahay, Golaha Wakiiladana mid baan leeyahay, Xisbiga Kulmiyena mid baan leeyahay. Golaha Wakiilada, inta sida khaldan u fikiraysa, waxaan leeyahay, iska daaya marmarsiiyo aan meel lahayn oo u diyaar garoobo in aad tartanka Doorashada ka qayb gashaan oo ha noqonina “kuwii 100-ka soomay ee bakhtiga ku afurayâ€. Xisbiga Kulmiye, waxaan leeyahay ixtiraama Dimuqraadiyadda u hana qaaday ummadeena. Ummada Somaliland-na midab kaliya ayey leedahay, ee midabo kala du duwan ha u samaynina. Xilkana, tartan doorasho oo kaliya ayaad ku iman kartaan, ee iska daaya riyooyinka kale inaad ku firkirtaan oo aad kursi ku heshaan. Shacbigana, waxaan leeyahay indhihiina fura, dhegihiinana fura, cidda u guntatay bur-burinta qaranimadiina heegan u ahaada. Waxa baryahayn la is waydiinayey falkii ciidanka Booliiska iyo Xisbiga Kulmiye ay iskaga horyimaadeen, habeenkii markii uu ii soo sheegay Wasiirka Arrimaha Guduhu, koox Ciidanka Booliiska ka tirsan iyagoo ku dabajira Idaacadda uu Guddoomiyahoodu sheegay inay ka dambeeyeen, waxaan isla markiiba amar ku bixiyey in Xisbigaasi xaruntooda iyo alaabtay haystaanba faraha laga qaado, anigoo isla markaana u sheegay Taliyaha Ciidanka Booliiska, in habka loo maamulay aanu fiicnayn marka horeba, waxaanan amar ku bixiyey in Axsaabta Xarumahooda aan dib loo tagin, haddii sharci jabin ay ku kacaanna, nidaam sharciya loo maro.

Awdal News Editorial: Celebrating 14 Years of Resilience, Thriving Democracy And World Negligence On the 18th of May 2005, Somaliland celebrates the 14th anniversary of restoring its sovereignty as it emerged from the wreckage of the former Somali Republic and rose like a phoenix from the ashes of destruction, mass graves and immense human suffering. Throughout these years Somaliland survived on a will of steel and inherent resilience despite the enormous challenges it faced due to the stonewalling of its legitimate issue by the international community. Upon returning home after a devastating war of annihilation on the 18th of May 1991, the people of Somaliland, or former British Protectorate, acted quickly to build their country and their homes, nurse their wounds, restore their pride and above all reclaim their national identity after 30 years of living with a borrowed personality. Depending on their own meager resources, their strong determination for survival, their unflinching faith in their cause and their unfathomable optimism for a bright future, they embarked on the arduous journey of reconstruction and reassertion; reconstruction of their country and reassertion of their nationhood. On its 14th anniversary today, Somaliland prides itself on building one of the most thriving democracies in Africa with a multi party system, press freedom, burgeoning market economy and an atmosphere of peace, stability and social harmony. With the parliamentary elections slated to take place on the 15th September 2005 as the victory lap of its democratization endeavor, Somaliland stands as a prime example of what people can do for themselves without relying on foreign handouts and condescending lectures on reforms and democracy. Somaliland's home-grown peace and democracy are, however, a slap in the face of the International Community, particularly African and Arab countries, which are for the 14th time trying to breathe life into the dead body of the former Somalia, while turning away from the accomplishments of the people of Somaliland. As actions always speak louder than words, it seems the African Union is finally waking up to the reality of Somaliland and beginning to see the other side of the coin after reaping frustration after frustration with its efforts to bring peace and reconciliation in Somalia. There is no argument that the AU fact-finding mission that recently visited Somaliland has seen and touched the people's sentiment and quest for nationhood and their unshakable determination to stay on course despite the enormity of the economic, social and political challenges they face. By coming out in their thousands to the streets of Hargeisa, Berber, Burao and Borama the people have shown the AU mission that Somaliland is here to stay and the world community has to live with it. They have shown that Somalilanders are ready to prove to the world that their resolve will outlast all walls of silence.

^^ Faras indho la ayaad fuushantay sxb Having said that, in a world where countries are coming together to build economic and political strength (Europe, East African community), its quite sad that my fellow brothers have decided to take a one way ticket to loneliness That must be one the most misunderstood or rather mis-used statements from the Pro unity camp. My friend, tell me a French man who wants to reliquish his soveriegnty to an English man? Or a Briton that wants to let an Italian decide who runs old Blathy? Sxb, as a Somalilander, I wouldn't mind to see we as Somalis from Djibouti, Somaliland and Somalia to have one currency or economy system as they are currently doing between Uganda-Keyna and Tanzania, as long as Somaliland, Djibouti and Somalia remain soveriegn independent and equal partner states.

Turnout appears high as Ethiopians go to polls Third Time Lucky for the Opposition? ETHIOPIA: Carter calls for fair elections

NAIROBI (Reuters) - African nations will worsen Somalia's crisis if they send in peacekeepers before the government has solved a row over where it should be based, one wing of the divided administration said on Friday. "Any deployment without a solution of this dispute is not helpful and will contribute to the crisis," Deputy Prime Minister Mohamud Ali Jama said by telephone from Mogadishu. Jama, also information minister in the Horn of Africa country's embattled administration, speaks for a Mogadishu-based faction that opposes President Abdullahi Yusuf's plans to base his administration outside the capital in Baidoa and Jowhar. Jama was commenting on the Africa Union's approval of a plan to send more than 1,000 troops to help Yusuf's government relocate from Kenya where it has worked since it was formed there at peace talks last year. In Addis Ababa, the 53-nation AU authorised the east African peace body, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), on Thursday evening to send a peace force to Somalia to help the government establish itself. It did not say where the force would be stationed. The force of about 1,700 Ugandan and Sudanese troops would protect the government and help with disarmament, the AU said. AU peace and security chief Said Djinnit said the force would deploy "within weeks" but acknowledged there was no money as yet to fund it and he appealed to the international community to provide financing. Jama said the move was premature because it did not have the agreement of all players in the government. "If IGAD deploys troops in Baidoa and Jowhar without a consensus they will do so at their own risk. It will encourage one side to pursue its unilateral ambitions and discourage dialogue and reconciliation," Jama said. "COULD BE THERE BY TONIGHT" In Kampala, an army spokesman said 800 Ugandan troops were ready to be sent to Somalia, and were waiting for the final order to deploy from IGAD countries. "If they gave us the word this afternoon, we could be there by tonight," Major Shaban Bantariza said. "We have fixed our logistical requirements and now we are just waiting for the political green light from our ministers and heads of state." Yusuf says Mogadishu is too dangerous to serve as an initial base. The heavily armed warlords whom Jama speaks for want Yusuf to come to Mogadishu, saying they can take care of security. "The Mogadishu faction does not speak for public opinion in the capital, where people are tired of roadblocks, militia taxes and terrorism," an aide to Prime Minister Mohammed Ali Gedi said. "We are packing our bags to leave Kenya." At the core of the dispute is mistrust among many warlords, especially those based in Mogadishu, of the intentions of Yusuf's main foreign sponsor Ethiopia, Somalia's historic foe. Many among the overwhelmingly Muslim 10 million population are hostile to what they see as attempts by their big, nominally Christian-led neighbour to dictate events in the region. Regional tensions rose sharply this week when a group of Somali MPs accused Ethiopia of sending troops across the border to back militias friendly to Yusuf. Ethiopia denies the charge. Somalia collapsed into chaos after the overthrow of military ruler Mohammed Siad Barre in 1991. Conflict and famine have killed hundreds of thousands of people since then. "The peace process is on the brink of collapse," said Matt Bryden of the International Crisis Group. "We could well be past the point of repair." Parliament speaker Sharif Hassan Sheikh Adan plans to leave leave Kenya on Sunday and install a rival assembly in Mogadishu, a move diplomats said would institutionalise the rift in Yusuf's cabinet. He earlier said he planned to leave on Saturday.

Well a Col. Yey led phantom government was expected to be failure.

Promotion of Taiwan's Participation in the World Health Organization Minister of the Government Information Office Pasuya Wen-chih Yao today invited Minister of Foreign Affairs Chen Tan Sun and Minister of the Department of Health Hou Sheng-mou to participate in a press conference for local and foreign journalists that focused on " Taiwan's 2005 Campaign for Participation in the World Health Organization. " Minister Yao stressed that the people of Taiwan should have the right to participate directly, separately, fully, and immediately in the WHO. He urged the international community to take a principled and conscientious stand and support Taiwan¡¦s efforts in participating in the organization. Foreign Affairs Minister Chen pointed out that the theme of this year's World Health Assembly is "Make Every Mother and Child Count" Taiwan's exclusion from the WHO system, however, means that all of Taiwan's mothers and children cannot receive equal care and protection from the WHO. This is extremely unfair, Chen said. The people of Taiwan should enjoy the same health and disease prevention protection as people of other countries, and participation in the WHO by Taiwan would allow it to make even greater contributions to international medical and health cooperation. Minister Chen further indicated that, from the foundations it has already established, Taiwan will continue to seek observer status in the WHA this year with the help of a motion from its allied nations. He especially called upon China not to say one thing and do another, saying that convening of the WHA on May 16 will offer an ideal opportunity to examine China¡¦s claim to be willing to help Taiwan or whether, in fact, it will continue to oppress Taiwan as before. Health Minister Hou said that although in the past the WHO has not been able to invite Taiwan to participate at the WHA under observer status, much progress has been made through the combined efforts of the government and people. He said continued efforts were needed in the future, especially in the following areas: Participation in or striving for Taiwan to be applicable under the amended International Health Regulations; establishment of an International Medical Care Management Center of Taiwan; and continued use of Taiwan¡¦s strengths in the fields of health and medical care, combined with non-governmental medical and health organizations, to jointly promote exchanges and cooperation with WHO member nations. Minister Hou further stressed that Taiwan's accession to the WHO was in accordance with the principles of humanitarianism, justice, love, and peace. He said Taiwan is willing to actively participate in international medical tasks, will ensure transparency of information regarding epidemics in Taiwan, and will make contributions to resolve global health issues. In introducing the materials for this year¡¦s campaign aimed at increasing international support, Minister Yao said that the GIO has produced two 30 second films combining this year's themes of medical relief, humanitarian care, and diseases transcending borders, which will be broadcast on major international media. The GIO has also produced an innovative handout, "Epidemics don't care WHO you are" which uses the picture of an innocent child¡¦s face to attract attention, and raise the idea that, in spreading, diseases do not discriminate on the basis of ethnicity, skin color, or age. This advertisement has already appeared in major US, Japanese and European media. The GIO is also making use of its long-term advertisement boards at JFK Airport in New York, Heathrow Airport in London, Frankfurt Airport in Germany, and Chiang Kai-shek International Airport in Taiwan. Other recent efforts by the GIO have also garnered international support. These include activities such as President Chen's videoconference with members of the European parliament and international press, lectures, seminars, visits, letters-to-the-editor by GIO offices abroad, publication of special articles, and a website design competition. In dealing with the issue of the name under which Taiwan seeks to participate in the WHO, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Michael Ying-mao Kao said during a question and answer session that the main hindrance is China's obstruction. In order to avoid disputes over political and sovereignty issues, in recent years Taiwan has adopted a professional and pragmatic attitude of seeking participation as an observer or non-member state. As for the name to be used, in addition to such suggestions as the Taiwan Health Entity, Taiwan Health Territory, or Taiwan Health Authorities, others have advocated the Health Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu in accordance with the model used for Taiwan¡¦s participation in the World Trade Organization. Kao said that the Taiwan government maintains the highest degree of flexibility on this issue, and hopes a consensus viewpoint can be reached through bilateral or multilateral negotiations. Kao did say, however, that Taiwan can in no way accept the name of "Taiwan, China" that China proposed recently during meetings with Taiwan¡¦s opposition leaders, since this was an attempt to diminish the international status of Taiwan. Deputy Minister Kao further pointed out that Taiwan will again seek through its allies to motion for Taiwan's WHO participation on this year's WHA agenda. In an effort to minimize any impact on the discussion of issues, promotion of the case will be made in the most appropriate and reasonable manner. Kao said that, in addition to Taiwan, areas excluded from the International Health Regulations mechanism include Somaliland, Kosovo, Northern Cyprus, and Palestine . The year¡¦s World Health Assembly is expected to consider and pass amendments to the IHR. Taiwan will promote the inclusion of the words "Universal Application" into Article 2bis of the IHR, which would enable the IHR to cover all the world's people, including the people of Taiwan. In answering a question from the media, Health Minister Hou said that medical care is a basic human right, which should transcend all other issues. He said that every physician, before receiving his or her professional license, takes an oath to treat all patients equally, without regard for ethnicity or religious background. He called upon Chinese medical professionals to adopt the same ideal when looking at the issue of Taiwan's participation in the WHO, and to "leave politics in the political sphere, and let health issues return to being just health issues." Minister Hou stressed that, in terms of medical assistance, Taiwan has already moved from the role of recipient to that of donor. Whether in terms of foreign medical assistance and cooperation, or relief efforts after the tsunami in South Asia, the government and people of Taiwan have contributed significant moral support as well as material resources. Establishment of the International Medical Care Management Center of Taiwan is further proof of the nation¡¦s willingness to pay back to the international community, he said, and that it would be the international community's loss if Taiwan is prevented from entering the WHO.
