We've heard "Qaatlanders" "marfishland" from your folks before...I say all is fair. I wouldn't I say it, but I wouldn't knock others when they say it...I'm just saying

^That slow. What she's saying is that only a fool would claim of dowladnimo iyo qaranimo and resort to a derogatory terms to describe the people he's claiming to be part of. That's just beyond stup1dity.

That was uncalled for! Using derogatory clan insults aint cool duqa.

[Kornaylka]

I thought using derogatory clan names were the rule rather than the exception in SOL? May be I should visit here more often.

What JB is trying to purposely hide is the official British Press release that makes it clear that it views NW Somalia as part of Somalia and by directed aid to their the rest of Somalia will benefit. Even more importantly is that the title of the Press Release makes it clear the aid is going to Somalia.

 

JB is trying to twist the alleged protests in London as a way to prove something different! People may be upset (if the supposed protests are even truthful)) that most of the aid will be going to one section of Somalia. It has nothing to do with indepedence becauase the press release clearly shows that the aid is directed to different parts of Somalia.

 

I won't why JB doesn't post the official British press release?

UK Increases Aid to Somalia

 

Press Release

Tuesday, March 01, 2011

 

 

 

UK TO INCREASE ASSISTANCE TO SOMALIA TO TACKLE ON-GOING HUMANITARIAN CRISIS, INSTABILITY AND POVERTY

 

 

 

Nairobi - British Secretary of State for International Development, Andrew Mitchell MP, today announced increased support from the UK for Somalia, which will go towards improving security and living conditions for people on the ground.

 

 

 

The UK will triple development support to Somalia over the next three years, to create employment and other opportunities to give Somalis hope of a place where they can make a living in peace.

 

 

 

Announcing the conclusion of a global review of the bilateral development programme in the House of Commons, Andrew Mitchell said:

 

 

 

“We will focus our effort where the need is greatest, not only saving but transforming millions of lives by providing access to food, clean drinking water, basic healthcare and education.”

 

 

 

“We are increasing our efforts to tackle poverty in a number of conflict and fragile states. We know that no conflict or fragile state will achieve the Millennium Development Goals without significant extra help.”

 

 

 

The UK’s new bilateral programme for Somalia will promote long-term stability in order to transform the lives of the Somali people, by:

 

 

 

(i) responding promptly to the humanitarian needs of the people of Somalia;

 

(ii) working with communities in areas of relative stability such as Somaliland to strengthen peace and governance;

 

(iii) creating jobs long-term jobs;

 

(iv) improving access to better healthcare, especially for women and children.

 

 

 

The Head of DFID’s Kenya and Somalia office in Nairobi, Alistair Fernie said: “The aims of DFID’s programme in Somalia are to address the humanitarian effects of the conflict, consolidate local areas of stability and promote more legitimate government to build longer-term peace. Our increased aid will deliver results to the people of Somalia in spite of the difficult conflict circumstances. ”

 

 

 

UKaid in Somalia will provide at least 500,000 people a year with emergency humanitarian assistance. This will be used to treat severe malnutrition, increase child immunisation, and provide water and basic health care for communities in need.

 

 

 

UKaid will help create long-term jobs for 45,000 people. It will also improve health facilities, and train more doctors across the country so that Somalis get better access to healthcare, avoiding preventable deaths particularly among women and children.

 

 

 

To achieve these results, the UK government will continue to work through a range of trusted UN and non-governmental implementing partners, who are able to operate on the ground across most of Somalia, and whose work is subject to rigorous scrutiny.

 

 

 

Alistair Fernie added: “Progress and stability in Somalia are also vital for the security of the whole region, and for the UK. The results we hope to achieve in Somalia are not only delivered from the British people, they are also for the British people.”

 

 

 

Note to Editors:

 

 

 

1. UK aid allocations to help build peace and stability in Somalia could rise from £26m in 2010/11 to £80m per year over the next three years, depending on the results achieved by 2013/14.

 

 

 

2. UK aid is channelled through UN agencies and other well established and trusted partners, with tough safeguards to ensure that the aid is used properly on the ground. Our key UN partners will be the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), the International Labour Organisation (ILO), UN Development Programme (UNDP), UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF), the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) and UN Population Fund (UNFPA).

 

 

 

We may work with the World Food Programme (WFP) if we are convinced that their controls have improved. Although FAO and ILO scored poorly in DFID’s review of multilateral aid, evidence suggests that in Somalia they can deliver. We will monitor this closely.

 

 

 

3. We expect that most of our support to Somali NGOs will be through international NGOs.

 

 

 

4. UK Secretary of State Andrew Mitchell visited Hargesia on January 31, where he explained that 40 percent of UK’s aid to Somalia will go to Somaliland. Somaliland has shown that greater democracy and stable government are possible, even in this difficult country.

Kooxaha Nabad-diidka ah oo London ka abaabulaya Mudaharaad Lagaga Soo hor jeedo Qadiyada Somaliland iyo Kaalmada uu Ingiriisku u Kordhiyay

 

 

Markii ay soo baxday in dawladda Ingiriisku ay ansixisay in Somaliland si gaara losiiyo deeqdi markii hore Somaaliya loogu darijiray, tasoo ay qayb u heshay 60% lagacata waddanka Ingiriisku ugu tallo gashay Somaaliya, iyadoo arrintaas ay dawladda Britain sabab uga dhigtay Dimuquraadiyadda iyo Dawlad wanaaga ka jira Somaliland inay ku mutaysatay, halka Koonfurta Somaaliya ay hadheyeen dagaalo aan dhammaad lahayni ayaa waxay taasi ka cadhaysiisay dad xumaan wadayaal ah oo aan jeclayn wanaaga iyo nabadda ka hano qaaday Somaliland, dadkaas oo ah kuwo faro ku tiris ah waxay si xiqdi iyo naxli ah isugu uruur sanayaan Magaaladda London. Waxaana dabada ka rixaaya Telefeeshinka Somali-Chennal.

 

Kooxdani waxay ayaa waxay abaabulayaan mudaharaad ay la hortagaan Aqalka looga arrimiyo waddanka Ingiriiska ee Downing Street , waxayna Qorshaynayaan sidii ay wararka Waaheen London ka helayso sheegayaan inay Kooxahaasi samaysteen boodhadh ay ku qoran yihiin halku-dhigyo lidi ku ah Dawladda Ingiriiska iyo deeqda ay siisay Jamhuuriyadda Somaliland.

 

Dhinaca kale wararku waxa ay sheegayaan in Kooxdan ay ku dhex dhuumanayaan Kooxo taageersan Kooxda Nabadiidka ah ee Dagaalka ka wada Deegaanka Buuhoodle oo garab ka helaya Maamul Goboleedka ******teeniya iyo Dad kale oo ka soo hor jeeda qadiyada Somaliland, waxase warku intaa ku darayaa in Jaaliyada Somaliland ee Dalka Ingiriiska, gaar ahaan Magaalada Caasimada ah ee London ay iyaguna wadaan diyaar garaw ku saabsan sidii ay uga hor tagi lahayeen kooxdaas islamarkaana ay ku tagerayaan dawladda Ingiriiska, tasoo ay ugu mahad celinayaan siday u samaysay cadaaladda dhamayska tiran.

 

Abaabulka arrintaas ayaa ka socota Magaalada London, iyadoo Kooxdan Somaliland diidka ahi ay tageerada ugu weyn ka helayaan Telefeeshinka ay maamulaan kooxda Alshabaab ee Somaali-Chennal. Haddaba wakhtiga ayaa ah maalinta sabtida ah ee bishu tahay 5/3/2011. Saacaduna ay tahay 1:00pm . Haddaba shacabka Somaliland ayaa yagana laga filayaa inay sameyaan isu soo bax ballaadhan

Saalax and co; getting increase in AID is not dhuulitan, when SL does not rely on AID and Diaspora support you can say fully wye dhuushay!

 

Since Oct 2010, there has been three anti Somaliland Demos in London. I don’t really mind them to be honest but I find it strange that of all things to protest about that is wrong with the Somalis, people will waste their time and money and UK tax money carrying posters in the cold that read "down down Somaliland" iyo "Somaliland does not exist" really? hada maxa on this freezing day gurigagi ka so sarrey.

 

Protest is open to everyone- its true but be clear about what you are protesting about- which I don’t get? What does “down down Somaliland” mean? does it mean they want it to crash, cease to be peaceful, do they want the British to invade them. These protest lack focus, just buuq and qalo. I heard they are planning one for May 18th seems to me like they are crossing the thin line between expressing your view and being xasid and trouble maker for the sake of it.

 

With the AID thing, Somaliland is going to get 40% of the total AID, seems a bit unfair to me, Puntiland iyo Somaliland iin wax la siiyo mabah aha (maybe 40% between them) laakin humanitarian meel kale aya loga bahanya. They just need a way to skip the TFG and the Suitcase NGOs and they people in Kenya.

iyo "somaliland does not exist" really? Hada maxa on this freezing day gurigagi ka so sarrey.
