DigibAc Posted February 15, 2007 The whole principle of the TFG is to divide the Somali people into clans and sub clans. To even get a simple job in this government you must represent a clan. You can’t work in it just for public service or to server the Somali people. The end result is that positions are given (and will continue to be given) based on qabiilist thinking and formulations (like the 4.5 idea). The result is clans fight over who gets what position and the government becomes another stage for clan jockeying instead of an institution for the public welfare.

Emperor Posted February 15, 2007 ^^Certainly, you can serve the nation by representing your qabiil, what's wrong with that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kamalu Diin Posted February 15, 2007 The result is clans fight over who gets what position and the government becomes another stage for clan jockeying instead of an institution for the public welfare. do you like the government to be based in Mogadishu at same time only mogadishu residences serve that adminstration? tell me what is your method of serving the public welfare while you labeling everyone who hails from other than Mogadishu with their tribe affilation and this happened the ICU era too. this is ubsard to me.

General Duke Posted February 16, 2007 What if all qualified people were from clan? What would people say? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedSea Posted February 16, 2007 ^ Not a problem. In that case, Abdullahi Yusuf wouldn't qualify, becuase he is uneducated and lacks leadership. He has no bright history therefore throw him out of the window. Geedi, he hasn't shown the least amount of strength to lead a war torn Somalia, and has deep PERSONAL relations with Melez, therefore would likely turn to be a kiss **** of Melez. Not a good one. and then Sh.Shariif Axmed...hmmmm, ladies and gents we have a qualifying leader in that man. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
