Barclays Decision May Encourage Supporter-to-Terrorist Direct Money Transfers

The world makes much ado of people and organizations – and even governments – assisting militant, fringe organizations engaged in nefarious schemes against the larger humanity. These include ter rorists, pirates, drug dealers, and human traffickers. Among these the three most sought after, most publicized groups are terrorists, pirates and drug cartels. And the world is right to explore ways to stop organizations of this elk sell human lives cheap down the drain – each in accordance to its own, heinous code of operations. The world is also right to wage a relentless offensive against these enemies instead of hiding behind defensive measures that invariably show the chinks in the armor through which infiltrators creep in into the system to compromise it or wholly destabilize its effectiveness. Examples abound.

Realigning Policies
On occasion, good intentions open floodgates of disaster, misery and deprivation that is far worse than acts they set out to curb or prevent from happening. The May decision of the Barclays Bank to close the accounts of some 250 Money Services Businesses (MSBs) serving millions and millions of needy beneficiaries in developing countries presently tops the list of good intentions turning awry. The down turn in the Barclays decision is that it creates untold of, immeasurable agony and deprivation among millions of innocent recipients of remittances who are punished not on solid grounds but on the dictates of ‘preventive measures’ against perceived crimes that may or may not have happened at all.
The short term gains of decisions such as that of Barclays cannot balance or justify the far-reaching ramifications of residual consequences that will yet prove far more alarming than that which the Bank seeks to cover. For one, millions and millions of people who depended on relatives and friends, and made a honest living on remittances will take up the begging bowl at best joining the hordes of stateless, humiliated masses of international refugees – a state that the world can do without. Secondly, money transfer will disappear from a certifiable transaction to an unaccountable underground labyrinth of channels, driving hard earned cash right into the hands of a ruthless, manipulating underworld.
Far more thoughtlessly, decisions such as that of the Barclays denigrate the usefulness of paper trails in money transfers as it severely punishes the conscientious, law abiding practitioner for negligible oversights – if any, whilst opening limitless opportunities for shady deals and trail-less transactions.
On the other hand, it indirectly scoffs at financial regulations designed to combat money laundering and terrorist financing by exerting unbearable pressure on compliant companies that are not of western origin. The words ‘double standards’ glare out – for better or for worse.
Major MSBs that have been adversely affected by recent events, such as the Somali-origin – Dahabshiil, vigorously comply with international regulations combating terrorist financing, proliferation of weapons and the proceeds of crime. MSBs of this genre should be rewarded for fulfilling FATF expectations such as Recommendation 15 below, and not punished on the pretext of the flimsiest of reasons. The aspersion implied in the Barclays decision and the dark smudge it leaves on the shining record of blameless MSBs should be immediately retracted, and especially in the light of the decision’s ominous connotations and impact.
Recommendation 15 points out:
Countries should take measures to ensure that natural or legal persons that provide money or value transfer services (MVTS) are licensed or registered, and subject to effective systems for monitoring and ensuring compliance with the relevant measures called for in the FATF Recommendations. Countries should take action to identify natural or legal persons that carry out MVTS without a license or registration, and to apply appropriate sanctions.

Any natural or legal person working as an agent should also be licensed or registered by a competent authority, or the MVTS provider should maintain a current list of its agents accessible by competent authorities in the countries in which the MVTS provider and its agents operate. Countries should take measures to ensure that MVTS providers that use agents include them in their AML/CFT program and monitor them for compliance with this program.

The only consideration that governments, financial regulators, banking institutions, money transfer businesses and individuals should all keep uppermost in mind is to abide by the laws as best as can be implemented giving adequate allowances to cultural and geographical contexts.
Legality of Mobile Money Transfers
The UN estimates that there are around 300 million adults that would have been able to receive remittances from relatives who have currently no access to conventional money services, and have never seen the inside of a bank or another MSB for one reason or another. The system is user friendly, accessible to anybody connected to a telecommunication network, and offers the user innumerable outlets that he or she can send and receive money. It is virtually as easy as topping up mobile accounts.

On the other side of the spectrum, regulators have always had issues with mobile banking. In conventional banking and money transfer systems, financial regulators have levels of reports and documents available to them to inspect giving them the necessary base to influence these institutions’ operations. In mobile banking this is not available.
The eleventh FATF recommendation on record keeping stipulates:
Financial institutions should be required to maintain, for at least five years, all necessary records on transactions, both domestic and international, to enable them to comply swiftly with information requests from the competent authorities. Such records must be sufficient to permit reconstruction of individual transactions (including the amounts and types of currency involved, if any) so as to provide, if necessary, evidence for prosecution of criminal activity. (FATF Recommendations, p.17)

Presently, this recommendation has no apparent effect on mobile money transfers. The recommendation further establishes that all records obtained in a transaction through the customer due diligence (CDD) measures must be available to ‘domestic competent authorities’ at all times.
This makes present-day mobile money remittances marginally legal. If the system remains unchecked and unfettered for such long, mobile money transfers will predictably take the place of conventional money transfer businesses, unfairly edging them off the market. Instead of combating crime, such systems, experts believe, are more likely than any other to replenish dried up terrorist coffers and used up ammunition belts of active terrorist combatants by transferring money right into the cell phones of militants on the move.
Regulators are understandably worried that any amount of money can be sent from any mobile in the outside world to a phone number of a terrorist in Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia, for instance, with no intermediary, checking systems in place. No sender has to go to an office to register details of sender and receiver, and no fighter has to leave his ditch to collect money to buy ammunition, assemble bomb parts or forward costs to another commander on the front. Imagine a group of people sending to the mobile phones of 100 militants $2000 each. This is a cool $200 000. A whole city can be captured in certain parts of the world. Trainloads of people can be bombed out of their tracks. A fleet of school buses can be blown off into smithereens with a far less amount of money… A paper trail to trace origins, senders and recipients will be available to no one.
With popular hawala MSBs nothing if this kind can ever happen. They represent the only safe, legitimate access to subsistence, health, education, and investment costs to hundreds of millions of people that western banking institutions can never ever reach even with the full cooperation of local conventional banking facilities.

Regulations miss out
In their haste to come up with iron-tight shields against money laundering and the proceeds of crime, high-street banking institutions, international financial regulations and regulators seem to have missed a few crucial turns. As a result:
1. Anti-money laundering regulations fail to address or understand the operational mechanics of Money Service Business (MSB) that are much older than some ‘countries’. In many cases, the MSB has all the qualities, the operational strength, the network, the AML/Compliance regimes and hierarchical structure to combat laundered money, terrorism and the proceeds of crime passing through systems as legitimate earnings. And yet, much feted financial regulations such as the FATF recommendations, assume that the UK or the US is a typical, apt model that all nations should strive to emulate. Better still, nothing short of the centuries’ old financial systems said countries have adapted to through the years must be tolerated in all nations, without exception, automatically –and fully – manifested in, for instance, countries like Somalia and South Sudan instantly. Every recommendation begins with ‘countries should..’.
2. Mobile bank service providers are not fully regulated as electronic money issuers or as MSBs. This state leaves them wide open for a variety of abuses on the part of users.
3. It had not been adequately taken into account that in mobile banking, there is a failure of high profile schemes – in other words total network failure, relaxed security, absence of KYC regulation, relaxed sim card ownership, and the near total absence of due diligence and record-keeping measures which may compromise the security of the money transfer industry as a whole where, in reality, players in sector itself exercise different security regimens and, so, should be viewed each (hawala, mobile transfers, banking institution, etc. ) by merit and level, instead.
4. Regulators and regulations tailored to rigid cultural and geographical confines have not fully comprehended that in some parts of the world, the hawala is the only legal channel to send and/or receive money, thus becoming the only lifeline for millions of people around the globe, and that the legitimate continuation of business is to the interest of all stakeholders. Major money transfer businesses originating from non-western countries apply international anti-money laundering measures as robustly as western hawalas such as the Western Union.

Historical back ground of President Ahmed Mohamoud Mohamed (Silanyo) from a documentary in U –Tube.

While I was gazing a few of the historical documentaries related Somaliland from the U-tube, I was landed to a situation of watching the life story of President Ahmed Mohamoud Mohamed Commented by his current spokesman, Mr. Duxol on July 15, 2009 in a political campaign occasion for Kulmiye party, which was at the time stitch opposition against the former administration, that lost the ballot vote in July 2010.

The circumstances accounted has inspired and encouraged me of writing the continents of this documentary into in English with regards the chronological events of the textual to be learned by many, who may have not an opportunity in the past.
To begin with, as informed in that documentary, Ahmed Mohamed Mohamoud was born in the town of Burao in 1938, which on those days falling under Ex British Somali-land protectorate from1884 until June 1960, followed by union with greater Somalia in June 26, 1960, in which May 18, 1991 had resulted by invaliding and reversing the old pronouncement of the unification of greater Somalia after a decade of combat war with the oppressive regime of Mohamed Siyad Bare, who was bring down from power in January 1991. Ahmed has five children, 3 boys and two girls.

He completed his three stages of schooling for the townships of Sheikh and Amoud. On his secondary education, he attended the schools in the towns of Sheikh and Amoud in ex- northern Somalia, which, after he passed the advanced level of GCE examination was granted scholarship by the British administration to United kingdom to pursue for his higher studies and from there he, joined the University of Manchester, earned an Honors Bachelor’s Degree in the field of Economics, whereby he continued his higher studies until he obtained his Master’s Degree in Economics field from the same University of Manchester in late 1965.

Subsequent of completing his university studies from UK, he joined with the ministry of Planning and Coordination in Somalia, as a capacity of Director, wherein, he was promoted to General Director at ministerial level after a short while in view of his contribution with the ministry during his services with the ministry, which brought consecutive gains. This position as General Director, he remained until 1969.

When the military seized power from the civilian government in 1969, Ahmed was one of the Intellectuals nominated by the Somali revolutionary council (SRC) to outline a comprehensive economical and political plans to develop the country from economical crisis, which in these days effected by the entire Somali population regardless of any part in view of alarming circumstances inflected by the corrupt civilian administration.
Considering his qualification, experience and the leadership skills, Ahmed was nominated as a minister and, instantaneously, upon his appointment as a planning minister (1969 – 1973) , he gave a priority to rapid economic and social development issues by initiating a famous plan known as “crash programs,” efficient and responsive government strategy, which end resulted on national economy improvement and steps forward accredited by the inclusive Somali public and also by the international community at large. In addition to his portfolio as the minister of Planning he also took an active role for the inauguration of written form of Somali language as the country’s single official tongue.

Apart of the information explained in the above, Ahmed was the master brain for the projects executed in the northern regions of Somalia in addition of the other developments carried out in southern Somalia. Among the projects noticed and said in that documentary are the road between Burao and Berbera; Berbera port development and expansion; Berbera cement factory; Tagwajaale Agriculture Project, which was financed by the World Bank plus many other enterprises in the Northern Regions of ex- Somalia.

When the issue of Berbera cement factory was raised and discussed in weekly ministerial meetings, some regime officials had suggested that the proposed cement factory to be built in Mogadishu and the raw material transported from rich cement mountains at Berber, claiming that the biggest consumers for the cement are in Mogadishu, the capital City, which they literally meant in the south.

However, as a planning minister, he strongly put in plain words to the attendees of the ministerial meeting, that such proposal is not cost effective in terms of economical factors, which subsequently obtained an overall endorsement on his submission by the opponents of his proposal. As well-known by many, Ahmed had never surrendered on his vision despite the political pressure pop in to him by the system officials.

Furthermore, He was one of the prominent cabinet ministers responsible for day-to-day government operations of the country. Being one the most central cabinet ministries, his programmes on national developments issues and good governed polices had brought about his popularity and reputation among the Somalia public.

In the period of 1973 and until 1978, he served as the minster of commerce, which he also resourcefully contributed adjoin successive developments recognized by the entire Somalia public. Afterwards from the period of 1980 and until 1982, he was the chairman of national economy, which was involving financial coordination with the various miniseries. However, in the late seventies, Ahmed has experienced repressive techniques employed by the regime to the Somali general public and in particular those originated from the northern regions.

Consequently, as a result of oppressive and hardships treated by the regime to the Somali public, he together with other few prominent ministers originated also from the northern regions of Somalia had established secret contacts with some of the reliance higher military officials and influenced them joining SNM, which was earlier announced in 1981 from London in view of the political harsh conditions inserted by the regime to the people in northern regions of Somalia, as that reversed his way of thinking.

Enthusiastically, these military officials contacted had made their own preparations fleeing from country and setting off to eastern parts of Ethiopia inhabited by the Somalis to carry out battle with the regime in the view of the above hard times encountered by the Somali people, particularly the northern regions.

Therefore, as he cannot wait inactive for the anguish of the Somali people, he took flight to UK in an effort of refreshing the liberation struggle against the oppressive regime from abroad. During his presences in UK, he travelled to many influential countries in the world populated by Somalis to boost the diplomatic relationship between Somali National Movement (SNM) and these visited countries, which accordingly gained the understanding for the legitimate cause and the problems of the Somalia people, and in particular those originated from northern regions.

Following, achieved consecutive diplomatic triumph, he set off to Ethiopia to pursue and continue the liberation struggle from inter-land, which after a little while; he was appointed as the chairman of (SNM). For the duration of his chairmanship of the liberation struggle, the manifestation of SNM had gained flourishing popularity and thriving military victories.

In the year 1990, he transferred the chairmanship of SNM to Abdi-rahman Mohamed Ali in brotherly manner, which had end resulted the end closing stage of the regime in nine months later after a decade of combat war with the regime (January 1991). Thereafter, the second independences were declared in Somaliland in May 18, 1991 in Burao following liberating the country from the regime. Ever since from the independences of Somaliland, he served on a various positions, which are the following:

In the period from 1993 and until 19997, he was member for the house of the parliament. From the same year 1997, he was appointed as the minister of finance in view of his background in economy fields, which he initiated and executed programs of fiscal reforms for the national economy, which generated on the stability of the national currency. In the period of 1999 and until 2000, he served as a minister of Planning and Coordination, a position from which he resigned in 2001. A little while later, he formed an opposition party known as, (Kulmiye, solidarity party) together with some prominent personalities in Somaliland.

In July 2010 election, he contested with President Daahir Riyaale of UDUB (the existed government party) and Faysal A. Warabe of the other opposition UCID party , which he obtained almost 50 % of the casted votes, whereas, the other two parties combinable acquired just 50% of the total votes. That is where he was standing until July 26, 2010. As of July 27, 2013 his administration has completed three years in office which, undisputedly attained them consecutive achievements in various domains and sectors disclosed and noticed by the totality of the Somali-land population. His maximum control over his cabinet as well as the country is most crucial and sensitive at this time

In conclusion, it is true, clear and comprehensible that most Somali-landers share with me that visualization reported above. However, these remaining two years of his term as a president are the most challenging of his time and if things go wrong could override all his achievements in the past that I stated above and as a matter of fact, the presidents’ maximum control over his cabinet as well as the country , in general, is most crucial and sensitive at this stage of his office term.

Therefore, in the event of the President either leaving with memorable achievements at the end of his term in 2015 or being elected to another term as President depends on how his government should combine with the three effective principles that the Honorable Ahmed M. M Silanyo has been renowned and sustained with in the past, which are/were solid vision + efficient effort + factual sincerity.

Qaranka Somaliland wuxuu ku yimi go’aankii ay u-foodeen ee ay qaateen bulsho-weynta reer Somailand,waxaana uu ku soo xerogaley gumucii mujaahidiinta hadda ku dhawaaqey
golaha wada tashiga iyo toosinta qaranka.Su’aashase la is weydiinayaa waxay tahay maxaa ka lifey in ay intaas oo mujaahid ay isu tagaan oo ay ku dhawaaqaan in talo lasiiyo oo la toosiyo xukuumada talada haysa ?? mar hadii xukuumadii la isku raacey in ay taraartey oo turun-turootey iyaga oo mujaahidiintu cid walba uga lexajeclo badan qarankan barakeysan ee Somaliland.ee ay naftooda iyo muruqooda iyo maalkoodiiba ay u-soo hureen ayaa waxay go’aan sadeen in wadanka si deg-deg ah loogu gurmado waxaana markiiba ku raacey shacabka reer Somaliland badankiisii.

Waxa aynu iyana ognahay in wadanka Somaliland uu yahay qaran dimuqraadi ah oo ku dhisan nimaadka asxaabta badan,madax banaanida garsoorka iyo golayaasha sharci dejinta.
Hadaba maxaa khaldamey? Maxaa is bedelay ?? maxey saluugeen mujaahidiintii wadanka u-soo halgamey ee ka xoreeyey taliskii cadowga ahaa ee Siyaad Bare? Jawaabta oo kooban iyo wixii ay saluugeenba ka akhriso qodabadan hoose ee kooban:

Oil and Gas Agreement Signed with Somalia

06 August 2013

Soma Oil & Gas Exploration Limited announces that it has signed an agreement with the Government of the Federal Republic of Somalia to assist in the development of the country’s hydrocarbons sector. This represents the first agreement in Somalia’s oil and gas industry since the election of President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and the appointment of an internationally recognized Government in 2012 following decades of civil war.

haa

Under the terms of the agreement, Soma Oil & Gas will conduct seismic surveying in Somalia’s territorial waters in areas agreed with the Government and in certain limited onshore areas. The Company will also collate and reprocess historic seismic data using modern techniques, and prepare an evaluation of Somalia’s petroleum potential. Soma Oil & Gas will create a data room for the Somali Government, into which all available data will be placed.

The survey that Soma Oil & Gas conducts will give it the right to nominate and obtain exploration and drilling rights under Production Sharing Agreements for prospective areas.

Prior to 1991 a number of International Oil Companies were granted licences in the country, which, according to oil industry experts has some of the largest prospective resources within East Africa, an area of already great industry interest.

Soma Oil & Gas was founded earlier this year expressly with a view to exploring in Somalia. Chief Executive, Robert Sheppard, a former senior executive of BP, Amoco and Sidanco, with over 40 years’ experience in the industry, joined the Company in May. Lord Howard of Lympne, former British Home Secretary and Leader of the Conservative Party, is the Company’s Chairman.

Somaliland: The ‘Not Yet’ Country in East Africa

Whenever we think of poverty, war and lawlessness in the world; one country comes to our mind often: Somalia. We have an assumption that the nation is populated by bloodthirsty warlords and pirates. Its neighbour Ethiopia portrays a better image, by no means. Thus, we come to a conclusion that this part of the world is nearly impossible to live in. Here comes a wonderful exception: Somaliland.

Somaliland is yet to be officially recognized as a country. However, it is often considered as an island which has relative stability and peace. The most shocking aspect about Somaliland is that the global community is yet to consider it as an official country. Things may not be heavenly here but Somaliland has a government which has been democratically elected. Not every official country in this world has that kind of a government.

Somaliland has also got working military and police force. For the last 20 years, it has hospitals and schools. Right now, it is an autonomous region in Somalia. This is the place where civilization took place for the first time in Somalia. There have been cave paintings which are about 10,000 years old. These were left behind by the ancient citizens here. These paintings are among the oldest available in Africa.

Somaliland was ruled by the British and the Egyptian in recent times. Somaliland had its brief independence from the British rule in 1960 before being merged with Somalia. It was only in 1991 that Somaliland has been considered as an autonomous region.

Ali Tuur became the first president of Somaliland. On the other hand, Ali Tuur decided to step down soon after while he advocated that Somaliland should get back to be a part of Somalia. Muhammad Haji Ibrahim was his successor until his death in 2002. The first democratic elections were held in 2003 when Dahir Riyale Kahin became the first president of Somaliland, who was democratically elected.

Nevertheless, Somaliland is still a difficult country for the tourists. The local bureaucracy may end up being frustrating. This is especially true about the airport security and the police. Still, when anyone comes to this part of the world, it can really be an extremely rewarding experience.

Muddo qarniyaal ah ayaa ummada ku nool Somaliland ku jireen duruufo qalafsan oo siyaasadeed, marna kama ay quusan in ay duruufahaas is bedel u helaan, niyad sami badan ayay u hayeen isbedeladaasi in ay mar uun kala kulmayaan nolosha, quusta iyo qanacu wuu ku yaraa shacabka reer Somaliland, waa hibo Alle siiyey oo u gaar ah, in aanay ka qancin nolosha, nolosha ayaanba ka yeelayn in ay qancaan. Inta badan hoggaamiyayaashii ka soo qayb qaatay duruufahaas siyaasadeed waxaa ka mid ahaa, siyaasiyiin, wax garad iyo aqoonyahano ka soo jeeda gobolka Togdheer. Waa shayga qudha ee ay ka faa’iidaan siyaasada reer Togdheer ama reer Burco ee ay ku faanaan, in siyaasigaasi u dhashay iyaga oo reer Burco yahay, in uu yahay mid wax xukumaya, talinaya, oo muuqda, haddii aanu waxba u qabanayn mooji waxa ay ka faa’iidayaan sheegashadiisa!

Burco waa meel illaahay uu hibo u siiyey shakhsiyaad siyaasadda , sugaanta iyo hoggaankaba ku xeel-dheer. Sidaas weeye! haa waa ka soo buuxaan raggaasi Burco, siyaasiyiin haddeerba reer Togdheer ah ama reerBurco ahi maxfalka siyaasadda waa ka buuxaan, reer Burcona waa difaacaan raggaas mar hore iyo iminkaba. Haddana iyadoo sidaas ah (Siyaasiyiintu) iyaga waa kala qaybiyaan, waxayba ka rideen dagaalo sokeeye oo dhawr jeer ah, waa laga qaxay Burco dhawr jeer, illaa Sayidkii ayaa qaar soo raaceen, Siyaad Bare ayay Burco la dumiyeen, Daamo ama xaafado aan isu gelin ayay ka dhigeen markii xorriyada Somaliland lala soo noqday, iyadoo sidaas ah ayay haddana ku fanaan reer Burco siyaasiyiintaas,kuwo cusub iyo kuwo horeba!
Waxa meel lagu barto muddo dheer in isbedel ku iman karo dadku ma yaqiinsadaan, siyaasiga ayaa ka mid ah kuwa aan yaqiinsan ee arrinkaasi aanu sida sahlan u gelin. In la kaakiciyo marka loo baahdo reer Burco, si aan farsamo ahayn loo soo kiciyo reer Togdheer olole reereed lagu soo kiciyo, maaha wax qariib ah. Dabcan, siyaasigu wuu ka taxadaraa degaanka danta iyo duruufaha yaala kula xisaabtama wax ka qabashadeeda, si xeel dheer ayuu uga hawlgalaa, mararka qaarkood sida degaankaasi doonayo waxbaba yaanu u qabane. Laakin, dhulka ama degaannada sida sahlan qabiilka loo isticmaalo, weligoodba ma gudbaan, ma ilbaxaan, kama quustaan mid soo hagoogta oo luuqada qabiilka u isticmaala oo ku qiyaameeya. Bulshada noocaas ah horumarku maaha miqyaaskooda, maaha waxa ay ku cad goostaan, maaha dhaliisha ay wax ku dhaliilaan, maaha shayga ay wax ku taageeraan. Maxaynu reer hebel ka yeelaa waa inoo soo tashanayaane weeye kelmada aan duugoobin ama gaboobin, xiiso gaar ah ayay mar walba kelamadaasi leedahay. Markaas ayaa lagu kala qaybiyaa oo dantooda lagu illowshiiyaa. Shaqo abuurka, kobcinta illaha dhaqaale, tayaynta adeegyada bulshada, kor u qaadida waxbarashada iyo horumarka dhanka caafimaadku maaha kelmdo la isticmaalo marka iyaga lala xisaabtamayo reer Burco ama bulshooyinka qabiilku ku leeyahay saamaynta culus sida reer Togdheer ama Burco gaar ahaan.
Marka siyaasigu dantiisa gaadho, kuma soo noqdo, iyaguna waxba dib uma waydiiyaan, waayo wuxuu u hayaa kelmadii sixirka ahayd ee hayd reer hebel ayaa talo yeeshay! Lama waydiiyo xaggee ku yeesheen, maxaa naga quseeya taladooda gaar ka ah, lama waydiiyo taladaasi danta guud saamaynta ay ku yeelanayso ee aanu uga didayno, lama waydiiyo dan ayaa naga dhaxayso waanu ka wada hadlaynaa arrimaha gobolka. Siyaasiga iyo kooxda la socota ayaa qorshe u jeexa kala fogaynaya, waxaana dhacdaba in haddii qorshihiisa suurtogal noqon waayo uu meel kale afka saaro oo aanu la tashan. Waa ummad u raran qof qabiil ku abraarta, haddii uu dantiisa gaadho kumaba soo noqdo illaa uu u baahdo. Togdheer ma xanjo macaanka laga muudsado oo la tufo miyaa!

Hungo iyo himilo dheer ayaa halkaas ku saqiirta, wuxuu halkaas ku baabiiyaa siyaasigaasiga reer Togdheer hadaf dheer oo hayaan loo ahaa, wuxuu abuuraa siyaasigaasi aafo hor leh, wuxuu abuuraa ugxan iyo aboor aan dhiman , wuxuu dib u ridaa caruuro meel gaadhi lahaa. Han ayuu shiiqiyaa, iblays madow oo jidkooda oo kale leh ayuu ku noqdaa.

Maanta Togdheer kama duwana middaas aynu ka soo sheekaynay, waayo garaadkii siyaasiga dawladaha hoose iyo siyaasiga dawlada dhexe ayaa halkaas aynu ka soo sheekaynay taagan, aqoontii ayaan soo gaadhin halkeedii, shacabkii ayaan is bedelin oo waddadii, tubtii iyo toobinkii habaarka qabay weli haya. Gollayaashii degaanka ee maanta ee la doortay maaha kuwo wax cusub keenay, hore ayay u arki jireen qorshe la’aan raali lagu yahay, dawlad iyo siyaasi wax qabad la’aanta loogu sacabiyo, geeri ayay ka xigayaan in iyaga gaar loo maago, qaar difaaca kuwa kale ayay arkayaan, iyaguna waa heliyaan oo iyagana waa la difaacayaa, waa qasab, waa soo jireen……

Qormada danbe ayanu ku sii lafa guraynaa dhibta Togdheer haysta ee noocyada badan.

Barclays’ accounts move attacked

Barclays will come under renewed pressure tomorrow over a decision to pull the plug on companies offering a “lifeline” to families in poorer countries.

 Barclays will come under renewed pressure over a decision to pull the plug on companies offering a “lifeline” to families in poorer countries

Campaigners have been urging the bank not to close the accounts of 250 UK money-transfer companies and a delegation led by shadow international development minister Rushanara Ali will deliver a 23,000-strong petition to Downing Street tomorrow.

Double Olympic champion runner Mo Farah, who came to Britain from Mogadishu at the age of eight , has been urging his 800,000-plus Twitter followers to “support vital money flows to families in Somalia”.

The petition calls on the UK Government, regulators and Barclays to take urgent action to make sure millions of people do not see their “vital lifeline” cut off.

Ms Ali, who is Labour MP for the east London constituency of Bethnal Green and Bow, has said many of her constituents are worried about Barclays’ decision.

Barclays has not pulled out of the market altogether and the majority of companies it gave notice to are understood to have been able to find another bank.

The industry generally has been looking at how money laundering controls can be tightened. Last year, HSBC agreed to pay US authorities a record 1.9 billion US dollars (£1.2 billion) settlement over accusations that it allowed rogue states and drug cartels to launder billions of pounds through its US arm.

Barclays has said in a statement: ” As a global bank, we must comply with the rules and regulations in all the jurisdictions in which we operate. The risk of financial crime is an important regulatory concern and we take our responsibilities in relation to this very seriously.

“Whilst Barclays makes no comment on specific companies, it is recognised that some money service businesses don’t have the necessary checks in place to spot criminal activity, with the degree of confidence required by the regulatory environment under which Barclays operates.

“Abuse of their services can have significant negative consequences for society and for us as their bank. We remain happy to serve companies who, in our opinion, have sufficiently strong anti-financial crime controls and who meet our amended eligibility criteria.”

Barclays said it has been working with the UK Government and other bodies to discuss the issues, “especially given the regulatory and financial crime pressures upon banks”.

It said: “Where appropriate we have provided customers with additional time to find alternative banking services.”

Embassy workers leave Yemen / World / Britain/World / Home

Britain and the United States withdrew all “non-essential” embassy personnel from Yemen today and urged their citizens to leave the country.

Warning of a coming attack by al-Qaida, the US said its nationals were at “extremely high” risk.

The embassy evacuations follow a widespread shutdown of US diplomatic missions in the Middle East and Africa after the country’s spooks warned of an imminent attack.

In response it stepped up its illegal drone assassinations in Yemen, killing four “suspected militants” in the fourth fatal strike in two weeks.

Yemeni officials said the drone’s missile blew up a car carrying four men, one of whom might have been senior al-Qaida leader Saleh Jouti.

Authorities released a list of 25 “most wanted” al-Qaida operatives on Monday and offered rewards of up to £15,000 for information that leads to an arrest.

Al-Qaida has a strong presence in southern Yemen and has been able to seize and hold cities there, something it has not achieved anywhere else.

The US claims its illegal drone strikes, launched from its massive Camp Lemonnier base across the Red Sea in Djibouti, assist the Yemeni government’s bid to crush the terrorist network.

But critics say the frequent slaughter of innocent people helps al-Qaida to win new recruits.

Wasiir Samaale oo cdeeyay inaanu daka Siilanyo ka talin

 

Waxa ayaamahan socota is-labarog iyo istus tii ugu sareysay ee uu sameeyo Wasiir Samaale. Waxaad maqlaysaa isagoo ayna jirin kulan lagaga hadlay hadafka miisaaniyadda oo golaha Wasiiradu qabtaan uuna guddoomiyo Madaxweynahu, ayoo keligii bidix iyo midig u kala dhigayaa miisaaniyadda 2014 oo balano been ah dadka ku madadaalinaya. Waxaan jirin hab dawladbimo oo lagu joojiyo beenta iyo baal marinta maamuuska dawladnimo waayo waxaan jirin cid dalka ka madax ah.

samale

Waxa muuqata inayna jirin miisaaniyad qaran oo ay Golaha Wasiiradu ka shireen iyo ujeedo ay leedahay, waa malo awaal iyo rabitaan qof oon dhaafsanayn hadal afka ka soo baxay. Si loo aamino waxa samaale shegayo bal ha la helo warbixin taam ah oo dhab ah oo inoo sheegta miisaaniyaddii 2013 waxa ka rumoobay.

Lambaro meel leyskaga qoro oo la yidhaahdo intaas ayaanu gaadhnay, maxaa u daliil ah. Miyeyna garaadkeena ceeb ku ahayn nin aynu naqaan sida ay ula hawl yartay beentu, iyo xataa iska yeelidda wadaadnimo, kolka la yidhaahdo wadaad ayaad tahayna yidhahda xaasha ma ihi, ummadey u fiirsada baal marka nidaamka dawladnimo ee aan kow iyo laba ahayn ee uu baal marsan yahay si badheedh ah Wasiirka maaliyaddu.

 

Waxa jirta in nidaam ahaan wax walba ay tahay in laga ansixiyo Golaha Wasiiirada, deedna madaxweynahu oggolaasho ku sexeexo, taas waxa baal marsan hab dhaqanka wasiirka oon haysan nidaam iyo maaamuus toona. Waxa uu inoo sheegaya inaanu dalka ka jirin nidaam dawladeed, iyo inaanu Siilanyo ahayn nin hoggamin kara Golahiisa iska daa dalka oo dhan.

 

Waxa ay tahay in hadday dhaamaan Golayaasha Sharcidejintu ay arrimahan ka hadlaan oo waliba guddiga miisaaniyaddu ay xilkooda gutaan. Iyagaa ka liita oo waa meesha kale ee Samaale ka ilmo dhaliyey. Waxa Guddiga miisaaniyadda Guddoomiye u aha Xil. Maxamed Maxamuud Cumar Xaashi oo seedi u ah Samaale, ahna nin aqoon yahan ah bal se xididnimo xayirtay. Waa ninkii kolkii horeyna u sharxnaa Guddoomiynimada Golaha ee Samaale dartii uga hadhay. Waxa maanta la gudboon inuu guddigan iskaga baxo amba hawsha qaran xidid ma taqaane uu dalka eega iyo danta guud.

 

Waxa Wasiirku la wareegaya balanqaadyo shakhsi oon waxba ka jiri doonin bal se uu uga jeeda xil doonista Kulmiye gudihiisa. Waxuuna u isticmaalaya miisaaniyadda qaranka sidii mid uu shakhsi ahaan leeyahay, ninkii qaban lahaan muuqaal mooyee maskax ahaan waa maqane.

 

Waxa iyana ayaan darro ah in Wasiirka Qorshaynta oo inagu maaweeliya Qorshaha Shanta sano iyo 20 sano aanu waxba ka odhan miisaaniyadda aan hadafka lahayn ee maalinba cid Samaale la kulmo uu ugu balan qaadaayo miisaaniyaddaan ku darayaa taas oo ah mid aan xidhiidh la lahayn qorshaha Dr. Sacad uu ummadda waraabiyey kharash badanina ku baxay.

 

Ciid Mubaarak Madaxweyne waan kuu duceeya.

Professor Samatar iyo qadiyada Somaliland

Waxa ay ahayd bishii June 4-teedii ee sanadkan 2013-ka markii Professor Axmed Ismaaciil Samatar uu socdaal taariikhi ah ku taggay dalka Jamhuuriyada Somaliland oo uu asal ahaan amma dhalasho ahaan kasoo jeedo laakiin muddada 22-ka sanadood ah ee Somaliland jirtay kasoo horjeeday lasoo noqodka madax-banaanideeda.

samatar

Professor Samatar waxa uu kala kulmay dalkiisii iyo dadkiisii uu u taggay soo dhaweyn aanu filanaynin waxa ayna ku dhalisay qiiro iyo jaceyl cusub oo ugusoo abuurmay dadkiisa.  Waxa aan shaqsiyan ka mid ahaa dadkii taageerayay ilaa maantana taageerayaa sida karaamada leh ee professor-ka loosoo dhaweeyay ee kalgacalka iyo wadaniyadu ku dhehneyd isla markaana loo tusay in la rabbo sababtoo ah waxa aan aaminsanay in shaqsiga amma kooxda Somalilander-ka ah ee kasoo horjeeda qadiyada Somaliland uu yahay amma ay yihiin waran ku taagan dalka oo aanu ka fadhiisan karin. Madaama aan si wayn u qiimaynayay uguna faraxsanaa soo noqodka professor Samatar waxa aan si dhaw ulla socday socdaalkiisii iyo qudbadihiisii iyo waraysiyadiisii kala duwanaa ee uu dalka gudihiisa iyo dibadiisaba ka jeediyay.

 

Hadaba waxyaabo aad iiga yaabiyay oo aan ka aamusi kari waayay ayaa iigasoo baxay waraysiiyo uu professor Samatar siiyay warbaahinta kala duwan (Heemaal News, Universal..iwm) markuu ku noqday magaaladiisii Minneapolis ee dalka Maraykanka. Sidaa daraadeed qoraalkaygan waxa aan ku fasiraya amma kaga faaloonayaa jawaabo amma hadalo ku jiray waraysiyadii kala duwanaa ee professor Samatar siiyay warbaahinta markii uu noqday.

Wakhti uu waraysi siinayay Heemaal News ayaa professor Samatar la waydiiyay oo uu wariyihii ku yidhi:”professor Samatar su’aalaha lagu waydiin doono waxa ka mid ah ma Somalilander ayaad noqotay?” Professor Samatar su’aashaa kooban wuxu kaga jawaabay sidatan: “Aniga Islam-nimmo iyo Somali-nimmo waa la igu dhalay meel aan uga tagana garan maayo, haddii aan is-idhahdo ka tagna meel aan taggo garan maayo oo dee hadalka ugu horeeya waa magaca? Axmed Ismaaciil, oo magacaasi waa Islam-e ma muslin-baad tahay? Haa dee anna waan ahay waana la igu dhalay, oo dee xageed ka timid? Dee Maraykan baan ahay. Haa, laakiin asalkaaga magacani John Smith maahe xageed ka timid? Waxaan ka imid East Africa, Somalia ayaan ka imid oo Soomaali baan ahay.  Laakiin waxa weeye siyaasadda sida la isku maamulayo ayeey tahay, anigu waxa aan noqday, siyaasiyan, qof goystay Somaliland waxan la qaban karayo inaan la qabto.”

 

Waxa kaloo professor Samatar waraysiyadii uu bixinayay hadaladiisii ka mid ahaa oo uu Somalia ku tilmaamayay qolada Calanka Wayn haysata oo uu markaas saarayay masuuliyada wayn ee qaranimmo Soomaaliyeed oo markaas albaabkeedu furanyahay mar walba, haddii waxa Somaliland haysato wax ka weyn ay keenayaan.

 

Iyana waxa jirtay jawaab uu ka bixiyay Calanka Somaliland ee uu diiday in la saaro amma koofiyada Calanka in loo galliyo oo isagoo micneynaya sababta uu u diiday yidhi: “Aniga igamay aheyn nacayb calan laakiin waxaan doonayay dadka inaan u sheego waxa aan anigu ku hadlayo dhagayso, sow hadda maad garan, waxaan markii dambe idhi, maalin damboo dadka aan u sheegayoon macnaynayay waxa aan ku idhi addunyada qofka calanka waxa la saaraa qofku markuu dhinto, yaa, ee naxashka uu dulyaalo ayaa la saaraa calanka qof nool calan lama dulsaaro, markaa dadku dee ma fahamsana ariimaha caynkaas ah.”

 

Aan ku horeeyo jawaabta khusaysa ahaan-shaha (identity) professor Samatar ee uu sida bal-balaadhan u sharaxay.  Waxa isku-key qaban-la takhasuska aqooneed ee professor Samatar ee ah culuumta siyaasadda (Political Science) iyo sida ay iskaga khaldantay professor-ka ahaan-shaha isir-nimmo (ethnicity or ethnic identity) iyo ahaan-shaha jinsiyadeed amma dhalasho ahaaneed (Nationality or National Identity).  Professor Samatar ma wuxu garan waayay su’aasha ah xageed ka timid (Where’re you from?) inay khusayso dhalasho amma dalka uu ka yimid la waydiinayo?  Adduunkan galbeedka (The West) ahaan-shaha la iswaydiiya amma la isku haybsadaa waa ka dhalasho ahaaneed oo qofku dalka uu kasoo jeedo ayuu bulshada uu ku dhex noolyahay ugu tilmaamanyay.  Mida kale ahaan-shaha dhalasho ahaaneed amma dal-nimmo waa ta qaran walba oo addunkan jira seeska u ah (sense of nationhood) ee uu ku taaganyay ee ah xabagta isku haysa bulshada dalkaa ku abtirsata.  Shuruudaha umaddi dawlad amma dal ku noqon karto ayaaba dhigaya oo qodobka 2-aad tahay in la hello dad daggan (permanent population) oo ku abtirsada.

 

Ta kalee mucjisadi waxa ay tahay in professor Samatar jideeyo Somaliland inay ku meel-gaadh ahaato oo haddii wax Soomaalin-nimmo iyo Islaam-nimmo ku dhisan la hello loo digarogan karo.  Ma qaran wakhti kasta (any time) baabi’i kara ayaa taagnaanaya?  Iska-daa innuu taagnaadee dagganaanshihiisa ayeey halis u tahayba oo dadka ku nool ayeey jahadu ka lumaysa oo taasina wuu ku dhacay professor-ku.

 

Arinka ugu dambeeyee aan isdul-taagayaa wuxu yahay arinka calanka.  Waxa runtii aad u qosol badan in professor Samatar oo daggan USA (The United States of America) uu yidhahdo calanka waxa la saaraa dadku markay dhintaan.  Waxa aan garan laayahay in professor Samatar uu adduun yar oo uu samaystay ku noolyahay iyo innuu yasayo aqoonta iyo fahamka Somalilanders-ka. Miyaanay aheyn madaxwaynayaasha maraykanka kuwa laga bartay inay calankooda sudhaan koodhadhka ay xidhanyiin? Miyaanay aheyn maraykanka meesha guri walba, siiba inta talisa ee maalqabeenka ah, uu calanka maraykanku sudhanyay? Qofka aad dal-wadaagta tihiin haddii uu calan ku saaro amma shaqsigu isagu calanka qaato oo uu lulo amma huwado waa muujinta farxadeed ee ugu saraysa (the highest form of expression of joy).  Waad aragteen oo ciyaartoygu, ciyaartay doonaan ha ciyaaraane, markay guulaystaan waxa ay huwadaan oo ay isdul-saaraan calanka dalka ay ka yimaadeen, iyadoo laga yaababa inaanay guushaa usoo hoyn dalkii ay ka yimaadeen amma u dhasheen waayo farxadda ayaa ka keenaysa. Sideedaba calanku waa astaanta kowaad ee umaddi amma qaran leeyahay wuxuuna matalaa ahaanshe dhalasho iyo dhaqan-ba. Inaankii koofiyada calanka Somaliland ullasoo orday professor Samatar markuu Gabiley ka hadlayay-na kamay aheyn wax kale ee farxada ayaa ka badatay oo professor-ka u muuji sidaad ugu faraxsantay imaatinkiisa ayuu islahaa, runtii il-baxnimada iyo aqoonta professor-ku sheeganayana midna kuma farayso in hadyad qaali ah oo lagugu sharfay aad dib ugu celiso qofkii kuu hibeeyay, waa badawtinimo ayeey illa tahay waxaana la gudboon professor Samatar innuu inaankaas iyo umaddii reer Somaliland ee soo dhawaysayba raali gallin uga bixiyo arinkaas.

 

Iskusoo duubo qoraalkaygan waxa aan uga dan leeyahay inaan da’yartii reer Somaliland iyo dadkii badnaa ee professor-ka soo dhaweeyayba tusaaleeyo in wixi laga filayay professor-ka, ee ahaa innuu qadiyada Somaliland iibgeeyo, inaanu nasiib daroo iibgeyn karin oo ay ku jirto uun dhakada ku jirta odayaashaas iyo intaa maanta horjoogayaasha innoo ah. Qoraalkaygani marnaba maaha ceebeyn amma xumeyn aan ulla jeedo professor Samatar ee waxa ay ujeedadaydu tahay in aan ka hortaggo in da’yarta reer Somaliland fikiro sax aheyn amma shaqsi looga dhiggo kitaab Quran ah oo markaas ahaan-shahoodu khal-khal gallo (identity crisis) oo markaas ay waayaan amma garan waayaan waxa ay umaddaha adduunka la qaybsanayaan.

 

Ugu dambeyn professor Samatar iyo dhammaan umadda reer Somaliland-ba waxa aan leeyahay Ciid Mubaarik, eebe ha inaga dhiggo kuwii soonkoodii iyo salaadoodiiba la aqbalay ee naarta laga fogeeyay ee garta wixi u dan ah qarankan ay isleeyihiin dhisa, aamiin.

Kenya: Huge Fire Shuts Down Nairobi’s International Airport

NAIROBI, Kenya — The Kenyan authorities ordered the temporary closing on Wednesday of the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport here in Nairobi after a huge fire broke out and raged for four hours, officials and witnesses said. The blaze spread to the international arrivals area, bringing East Africa’s busiest airport to a standstill and turning parts of it into charred ruins.

By midafternoon, Michael Kamau, a senior government transportation official, told reporters that the airport had been partially reopened for domestic and cargo flights, but that international passenger traffic was still suspended. The airport authorities planned to convert another part of the facility to a temporary terminal for international passenger flights, he said.

The blaze sent a plume of black smoke that was visible from Nairobi, the Kenyan capital, a few miles away, witnesses said. Visiting the gutted section of the circular, 1960s-era terminal, Kenya’s president, Uhuru Kenyatta, said there was no loss of life but expressed dismay over the damage and the disruption the blaze had caused to air travelers, said Manoah Esipisu, a presidential spokesman. The cause of the fire was being investigated, he added.

Kenya is a crucial Western ally, abutting troubled areas of neighboring Somalia. But Mr. Kenyatta and other Kenyan officials were reluctant to make any immediate link to terrorism. Wednesday, Aug. 7, is the anniversary of the 1998 coordinated bombings of United States Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, attacks that killed more than 200 people.

“There is no reason to speculate at this point,” Mr. Esipisu said.

Nairobi is an essential hub for sub-Saharan passenger traffic, transporting 6.3 million passengers a year on more than 40 international airlines from Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the rest of Africa. It is also a vital cargo link, particularly for the export of fresh produce, cut flowers and other perishable goods from across East Africa — an important source of foreign currency. The airport handled around 279,000 tons of freight in 2012, according to Airports Council International, second only to Johannesburg, which handled 336,000 tons.

Analysts said the quick resumption of international cargo traffic would likely minimize any immediate impact on the Kenyan economy, and the fact that some passenger flights had also resumed indicated that critical computer systems that handle ticketing, baggage processing and navigation systems were unaffected by the blaze.

“If the runway can operate and the control tower can operate, then the airport should be close to fully operational within a few days,” said David Feldman, a managing partner at Exambela, an aviation consulting firm based in Paris.

Airport officials said the fire started at around 5 a.m. on Wednesday, when many flights to and from Europe and elsewhere were scheduled. Many incoming flights were diverted to the Indian Ocean coastal city of Mombasa.

Katie Price, an American aid worker with Catholic Relief Services, said she arrived on a plane from Lusaka, Zambia, that landed at around the time the fire broke out and was stranded in the aircraft for several hours, before hundreds of passengers were evacuated through a makeshift immigration hall in a cargo area that escaped the blaze.

In a telephone interview, Ms. Price, 32, said the fire appeared to have caused major damage. “It looked like it would be hard to repair,” she said.

Kenya’s civil aviation authorities gave clearance late Wednesday for the airport to operate international passenger flights from a part of the terminal normally reserved for domestic traffic, although most were not expected to resume before Thursday.

“We want to guarantee the safety and security of all passengers, and that is our most important consideration at this time,” said Mr. Esipisu, the presidential spokesman.

Smoke continued to billow from the blackened, five-story terminal building late Wednesday and an acrid stench lingered in the air. Hundreds of people, including airport workers and stranded travelers, milled outside a cordon set up near the remains of the international arrivals area, which also housed baggage-claim facilities.

Among the stranded travelers were Rebecca Wilson, 45, and her 14-year-old son, Jacob Bilich, from Ohio; Ellie Rencher, 35, from North Carolina; and Jim Naughton, 56, from Washington, D.C. Many of the travelers said they were frustrated by the lack of information available to passengers.

“We had organized a conference in Kenya and decided to take a few days off to spend time in a village near the Masai Mara Game Reserve,” about 280 kilometers, or 174 miles, west of Nairobi, Ms. Wilson said. “We got the news about the fire this morning on our way back to catch our flight.”

Mr. Naughton said that the group was now trying to find alternative routes home, but and that he hoped to make it back to Washington in time for his mother’s birthday on Saturday.

Mr. Feldman predicted that the situation for air travelers was likely to remain chaotic for some time, as August is a peak month for Kenyan tourism, with thousands of visitors flocking to its beaches and game reserves.

“It will be a mess, probably operating in very uncomfortable, open-air conditions” with significant delays, Mr. Feldman said.

Reuben Kyama reported from Nairobi, and Nicola Clark from Paris. Alan Cowell contributed reporting from London.
