How can a man who over 35 years not lived/worked in Somalia, fix it?

 

He would be more suited to run for his adopted country.

He has impressive CV but he is applying for the worng job. There is nothing that suggests that he has the skills for political leadership. Yet, one can argue even the macalin-dugsi Sh. Sharif is there and hence why not Ali?

 

I suggest he stays in his profession for he won't change much as long as the current set up exists in the TFG.

 

He should concentrate on his unthinking maps and leave politics aside.

[NASSIR]

Som@li, he has been to Somalia in and out, implemented many projects. He is one of the principal founders of Somali Development and Relief Organization that was based in D-Jibouti, the first ever such organization right after the collapse of the Somali state, if you can recall its activities..

 

Of recent years, he traveled with Gen. Ilka-jir to Puntland in his election campaigns.

 

He has also been a member of think tanks, most notably Northern Somalis for Peace and Unity.

 

He organized the first political event in Washington D.C that lobbied for Somali Unity from the perspective of Sool and Sanaag leaders. If you remember, I posted an English interview he gave to the VOA on the issue of secession and federalism.

 

So as posted by Xudeedi, he published in prestigious publications on federalism and the importance of political devolution such as regional and local levels of governance as early as 1992.

Ethiopia's Meles urges speedy replacement of Somalia PM

 

(AFP) – 1 day ago

 

ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia — Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi on Wednesday called for the quick appointment of the Somalia premier after Omar Abdirashid Sharmarke resigned from his post earlier this month.

 

The Ethiopian leader met Somalia President Sharif Sheikh Ahmed here on Wednesday after Sharif recently named a caretaker prime minister to stand in before elections.

 

"Meles stressed the need to hold the election soon," the state-run Ethiopian News Agency (ENA) said, adding that he "pointed out that the election... would help stop the unsolicited pressure being exerted by the Shebab," referring to the extremist Islamist movement.

 

Sharif and Sharmarke had been at odds over a new constitution to replace the interim charter that expires in 2011. The president wanted a referendum on the issue, but the premier argued it was not possible due to lack of security.

 

Sharif also blamed his premier for failing to root out the Al Qaeda-linked Shebab rebels battling to overthrow the Western-backed government.

 

Ethiopia invaded Somalia in 2006 to topple the Islamist movement that gave birth to the Shebab movement that today controls about 80 percent of the country. It pulled its troops out in early 2009.

 

Meles said he would send the forces back in the "unlikely scenario" of peacekeeping troops from the African Union's mission in Somalia (AMISOM), who are propping up the government, needing rescue.

^Rumor has it both Ethiopia and Kenya look forward to the selection of a leader who won't venture into the SomaliWayn politics. They are satisfied with the current map of the Somali Republic best captured by the TFG's Charter.

^Don't bad-mouth Kenya, yaa Naasir. The two are in now way, shape, or form comparable.

[NASSIR]

Zack, The former president of Kenya Daniel arap Moi was reported to have said, "We do not want to see peaceful Somalia".

 

Also check the recent AlJazeera report on the mistreatment of Somali refugees like security crackdowns, deportation into the border, police brutality.

 

There's BBC News article about a time when Moi ordered the UNHCR to relocate Somali refugees to the border area and inside Somalia. It took a repeated international pressure for him to back down from that human rights voilations. He cited national security concerns as the main reason why he wanted Somali refugees to be relocated to the border and inside Somalia.
