Jacaylbaro Posted March 21, 2007 Somaliland to host the meeting There is a regional model worth emulating! The former British protectorate, Somaliland (to the north) has all but mastered the grassroots, bottom up approach of Somali political representation and transition. There, power is defused among elders (Guurti), and elected representatives to parliament, follow the social contract, support overlapping but separate powers, and insure the peaceful transfer of power. Three successful elections and peaceful transfers of power prove this point, perhaps unique among recent political activities on the entire African continent. Somaliland, as a location, also offers many advantages as the preferred place to launch this new paradigm for all Somalis. Thus, we propose an all inclusive meeting where the international community can facilitate this approach and explore how best to implement it with the representative leaders of the Somali tribes, the TFG ,members of the UIC, members of the Diaspora, as well as local and international NGO’s. Having undergone a similar process (without help from the international community), Somaliland’s leaders can share their experiences with other Somalis. It is also critical that these Somalis are seen by all as neutral in the ongoing struggle for power in Mogadishu. Hargeisa, Somaliland, also can provide a secure environment for such a meeting to take place. A simple corollary is that it is in the best interest for the future of Somaliland to have a legitimate government in the South so that it can help resolve the thorny issue of convergence, semi-autonomy, or full independence for Somaliland.

Kashafa Posted March 21, 2007 No problem. All of us Somalis can have a big pow-wow session as soon as the Ethos leave or are escorted out. As long as Islam is the law of the land, I'm even down for moving the Capital to Hargeisa, Bosaaso, or any other city large enough to function as a magaalo madax. Show of hands ?
