Videos of some of the Djiboutian ministers's speeches about the constitutional referendum in September 1992:

 

 

 

 

 

 

The son of Thomas, who was my younger brother schoolmate, offered him his Sonic 3, which combined with our Sonic & Knuckles to form almost a new game:

.

We only had that title as it came with our Sega MegaDrive (bought early april 1996);

I was disappointed when mum took my elder bro and he came back with the Sega, as I was impressed by the earlier Super Nintendo (with Street Fighter 2 title) that dad brought from France in 94 but could not connect with local TVs.

I soon was more impressed with Sonic and the mega drive as we had lots of fun up to end of 1996 (including during our stay in Hargeysa around 14 July-28 September 1996).

A golden period those early 90s indeed...

 

 

Becoming a minister was a dream back then too (stable and comfortable career; unlikely to run out of game titles) : D

 

 

 

PS: President Hassan Gouled (77-99) returning from a sudden hospitalisation in France (end of 96 if I remember well), the masses are lining up the road from the airport to the Bait-Al-Wali presidential palace:

@Carafaat - great and timely thread. Attaboy!

 

There was an excellent documentary by the grandson of Richard Burton retracing the steps of the old man from Seylac to Harar, can't seem to find it.

I think most of us here belong to the civil war generation, so there's a sense of nostalgia for the Somalia we learned about from the memories of our parents, since we were either too young to remember or born during/after the collapse.

I don't know what civil war you are referring to but the war is still going on and unfortunately these somalis are sitting on the comfort of their houses in Europe or US posting some past youtube clips, expecting Kenyans, sierre leonese, ethiopians, ugandans, brundise, and now egiptians to free YOUR country lol, how silly? These law makers of yours can't even agree on jubbaland issues.
