BN Posted April 3, 2012 Thought I would share today's New York Times article on the New Mogadishu. Very uplifting, and nice to see recognition for this positive news in the int'l press. ********** A Taste of Hope in Mogadishu By JEFFREY GETTLEMAN Published: April 3, 2012 MOGADISHU, Somalia — Up until a few weeks ago, all visitors who landed at Aden Abdulle International Airport in Mogadishu were handed a poorly copied, barely readable sheet that asked for name, address — and caliber of weapon. No more. Now visitors get a bright yellow welcome card that has no mention of guns and several choices for reason of visit, including a new category: holiday. Outside, on Mogadishu’s streets, the thwat-thwat-thwat hammering sound that rings out in the mornings is not the clatter of machine guns but the sound of actual hammers. Construction is going on everywhere — new hospitals, new homes, new shops, a six-story hotel and even sports bars (albeit serving cappuccino and fruit juice instead of beer). Painters are painting again, and Somali singers just held their first concert in more than two decades at the National Theater, which used to be a weapons depot and then a national toilet. Up next: a televised, countrywide talent show, essentially “Somali Idol.” Full Article: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/04/world/africa/somalis-embrace-hope-and-reconstruction-in-mogadishu.html Photo slideshow (not sure how to upload): http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2012/04/03/world/africa/20120405-SOMALIA.html?ref=africa#1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess we can blame the the pirates of the ocean . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Somalia Posted April 3, 2012 Yes, blame us for her actions, I mean the pirates must have extraordinary powers.. :rolleyes: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
walaalkis Posted April 3, 2012 In my country, guys don't follow girls around whenever they go so they can settle an argument. I'm just saying. And of course, the pirates everyone has problem with them, they seem to get people's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Somalia Posted April 3, 2012 No one followed her, she intervened in a conversation between me and Duke. And she got banned when she hurled insults around. She had it coming, now let it go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caano_Geel Posted April 3, 2012 Somalina was cool and she was one of my favourite forumers in SOL. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
