Coca-Cola Invests $10 Million in Somaliland Bottling Plant

May 31 (Bloomberg) -- Coca-Cola Co., the world’s largest soft-drink maker, plans to set-up a bottling plant in the breakaway republic of Somaliland, saying its stability and economic growth provide “conducive” conditions for investment.

Somaliland Beverage Industries, owned by local businessman Ahmed Osman Guelleh, was awarded a license to operate the factory that’s under construction and expected to start operating by the end of September, Ndema Rukandema, Coca-Cola’s franchise general manager for the Horn, Islands and Middle Africa, said yesterday. Coca-Cola has so far invested $10 million to build the facility in Hargeisa, the capital.

Re: Recognition of “Somaliland” Will Surely be a Factor of Onstability in the Region

It is customary for Siyad Barre loyalists to panic whenever they see or even perceive Somalilanders taking care of business, or any good news coming from their direction. This person who wrote an article with the above title on Wardheer.com, a vehemently anti-Somaliland website where Siyad Barre loyalist congregate to snip and throw a kitchen sink against Somaliland.

This is one of the major websites where all types of Somaliland haters come together and spew their hate venom. There is nothing new in the article, it is just a duplicate of the anti-Somaliland literature espoused for the last 20 years.

Taxation, Political Accountability, and Foreign Aid: Lessons from Somaliland

Document

For years, studies of state formation in early and medieval Europe have argued that the modern, representative state emerged as the result of negotiations between autocratic governments in need of tax revenues and citizens who were only willing to consent to taxation in exchange for greater government accountability. This paper presents evidence that similar dynamics shaped the formation of Somaliland’s democratic government. In particular, it shows that government dependency on local tax revenues -- which resulted from its ineligibility for foreign assistance -- provided those outside the government with the leverage needed to force the development of inclusive, representative and accountable political institutions

The Somaliland Orchestra: An African Masterpiece in Democratic Elections

 ANALAYSIS

Somaliland has a special place in the political developments in Africa, especially in the Horn. The country was lucky to be liberated by a group which resembles a mass movement than an authentic liberation force. I spent the 1990s trying to decipher Somaliland and the positions of neighbouring countries and major global powers, when I was so oddly interrupted by the emerging menace and litrature of the Islamists and their entry to military politics. By Medhane Tadesse  

Somaliland’s new foreign policy yet another breakthrough…

Last week the world has witnessed peaceful and simultaneous rallies organised in almost every major cities and towns in Somaliland as well as Capital cities around the world notably London, Norway, Stockholm, Oslo, Toronto, Washington and others to mark the 20th anniversary of regaining Somaliland independence declared on 18th May 1991 in Burao.

Now that our once noble cause of Greater Somalia had died forever as Djibouti went its way, NFD is out for good, Houd and Reserved area are permanently part of Ethiopia and Italian Somalia has decided to permanently place its sovereignty in coffins, it is time to pay attention to Somaliland as it is a unique entity that is doing relatively fine despite huge security threats, economic hardships, and environmental and social problems.

Somali breakaway state needs recognition, says leader. By Simon Allison

HARGEISA, Somaliland — The leader of Somaliland has called on the international community to give the breakaway state the recognition it "deserves" as it marks 20 years since a unilateral declaration of independence.

"It's high time the international community gave consideration to the efforts of the people of Somaliland, and gives the recognition that the people of Somaliland need and deserve," Ahmed Mohamed Silanyo, the self-styled president of Somaliland, told AFP in an interview.

Somaliland Attends UN Security Council Meeting in Nairobi

NAIROBI: Somaliland delegation today met with United Nations Security Council in regards to security situation concerns in Somalia. The delegation from the United Nations is led by the French ambassador in the Security Council Gerard Araud and US Permanent Representative to the United Nations Susan Rice. Somaliland delegation is lead by foreign minister Mohamed Abullahi Omar and consists of defence minister Ahmed Haji Adami, water and minerals minster Hussein Duale, labour minister Ilhan Mohamed Jama and the chairman of the lower house of parliament.

Somaliland’s Recognition: The Undiscovered Secret

Unknown to many people in the world is a yet-to-be-recognized state with three and half million population in the Horn of Africa. It is a phenomenal country that has emerged out from the ashes of the collapsed Somalia. Up till now it stayed stable for over two decades without any external support. It is a country that has set brilliant records in terms of government institution building and peace maintenance which was based on a unique blend of traditional conflict-resolving approach and modern democracy. This happens to be Somaliland - Africa’s bonfire of peace and democracy.

SOMALIA: Mogadishu’s “lost generation”

NAIROBI: Most Somalis, especially in the capital, Mogadishu, have always lived amid war and joblessness. More than half the country's population was born after the 1991 ouster of Mohammed Siad Barre that sparked the country's slide into anarchy.

"This is a group of people who have never known anything other than conflict and violence," Ahmed Dini, a civil-society activist involved with children and young people's welfare, told IRIN on 24 May.

Somaliland Leader Revokes Oil-Storage Facility Permit

Somaliland, a breakaway republic in northern Somalia, revoked Total Mer Rouge SA’s license to manage an oil-storage facility at the port of Berbera after it failed to import fuel into the country for the past two years.

The government of the semi-autonomous region will take over management of the facility with immediate effect, President Ahmed Mohamud said in a decree yesterday in the capital, Hargeisa.

Kenya ready to recognize Somaliland

The Kenyan government has expressed support for the recognition of Somaliland, which is an autonomous region of Somalia.

Kenyan Assistant Minister for Foreign Affairs Richard Onyonka said that Nairobi supports the recognition of Somaliland as an independent state and Kenya will encourage the countries of the African Union to officially recognize Somaliland, a Press TV correspondent in Nairobi reported late on Friday.

Foriegn ministery: A statement on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of Somaliland’s independence

A statement

Hargeisa, 18 May 2011

Today, Somaliland is celebrating the 20th anniversary of its declaration of independence. On May 18, 1991, Somaliland terminated its union with Somalia after a decade of struggle against oppression, exploitation and destruction by the Siad Barre regime. We found the country in a shambles, devastated not by a foreign enemy, but by the Somali army. Hargeisa, Somaliland’s capital, had been reduced to rubble, with most of its population living in refugee camps in Ethiopia.

Marking 20-Year Anniversary, Somaliland Pushes for International Recognition

May 21, 2011 - Marking 20th anniversary, Somaliland is pursuing a new and persistent foreign policy to get itself global recognition, according to the Ethiopian Reporter. The government has asked the Ethiopian government to take the lead by recognizing the state.

During the completion of a colorful celebration of Somaliland’s secession from the mainland Somalia on May 18 twenty years ago, top government officials told reporters that the government is following an assertive foreign policy to urge the world to recognize the country officially.

HARGEISA - The self-declared republic of Somaliland has made key improvements in sectors such as health, education and infrastructure in the past two decades, its leaders say, despite its lack of international recognition.

Somaliland: The little nation that could

Wednesday was a momentous day in the history of the Republic of Somaliland. The country, if we can call it that, celebrated the 20th anniversary of its declaration of independence from Somalia. It’s shown it is possible to rise above chaos and build a lasting legacy. By SIMON ALLIS

The quiet, dusty, unpaved streets of Somaliland’s capital, Hargeisa, came alive as thousands of people crowded the major thoroughfares, all sporting commemorative T-shirts or hijabs in the national colours of red, white and green. A well-organised, if occasionally ramshackle, parade of students, sports stars and professionals forced their way through the crowd, with the help of the hundreds of soldiers lining the route.

UK Government urged to recognise Somaliland

THE UK Government was yesterday urged to recognise Somaliland, as Welsh campaigners descended on Westminster to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its separation from Somalia.

Plaid Cymru MP Hywel Williams MP said: “Somalis have long been part of the fabric of Welsh society, and, of course, Cardiff is particularly famous for its Somali community.

“It is always good when smaller countries come into being through the democratic choice of their peoples and Somaliland should now be fully recognised internationally and play its role in the wider world.”

Somaliland Celebrates 20 Years of Self-Declared Independence. By Voa-news

Somaliland is celebrating its 20th anniversary of self-declared independence from Somalia. Despite not being recognized as a nation by the international community, Somaliland has been very successful politically and economically. And it’s avoided the turmoil of Somalia.

“I guess what I see is a remarkable success story,” said Mark Bradbury, author of Becoming Somaliland, who works with the Rift Valley Institute, a non-profit research, education and advocacy organization. Bradbury first visited Somaliland in 1992, when the capital, Hargeisa, looked very different that it does today.

Somaliland aims to show coming of age. By Katrina Manson

In a macabre twist on Noah’s ark, a crane in the Somaliland port of Berbera is hoisting camels two by two on to a ship taking them to their death across the Gulf of Aden. Just like the awkwardly suspended cargo, Somaliland itself has been left dangling for 20 years. In 1991 the former British protectorate declared independence from anarchic Somalia, but no country has recognised it, as it is considered part of Somalia. Yet Somaliland, which marks its 20th anniversary on Wednesday, is largely peaceful and has built itself up from ruin with very little outside donor help

Somaliland: ''Country Profiles''

A breakaway, semi-desert territory on the coast of the Gulf of Aden, Somaliland declared independence after the overthrow of Somali military dictator Siad Barre in 1991. The move followed a secessionist struggle during which Siad Barre's forces pursued rebel guerrillas in the territory. Tens of thousands of people were killed and towns were flattened.

THE LAST GREAT POET: The Brilliance of Hadraawi

There is no one with more common sense …

more obstinate … more lucid or dangerous, than a poet....”Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Love in the Time of Cholera.

Two things made me really happy a few weeks ago. President Obama assured Americans that he was indeed an American by revealing, for the first time ever, at the lavish White House Correspondents’ Dinner, his “birth video” — the birth of Simba from The Lion King, held up by the wise Rafiki in all his majestic nakedness for all the creatures of Prideland to celebrate—brilliantly encapsulating Dreams from My Father and making me so proud to be from Africa. Then unexpectedly, I got a phone call from the Motherland! As much as I love Africa, I don’t like getting calls from Africa......

One stone with two birds (Countdown to Somaliland Collapse –Somaliland: Africa’s Potemnkin Village!)

'' What the heart desire the mind inspires ''. 

The independence of Somaliland is not in jeopardy nor has it ever been in danger of external influences. The creation of falls narrative to justify the campaign against the inevitable (the recognition of Somaliland) is nothing new to its people and leadership. The illegality of Somaliland unification with Somalia is one that is a fact and recorded in the books of history. Time and time again this great nation has been acknowledge by its most important ally its people. The people of Somaliland has acknowledged, accepted and endorsed their democratically elected government through the ballot box in the last two decade.

For Somaliland, a dawn for full Justice is on its Horizon.

Will Somalilanders embrace it with Islamic Sharia and transcend?  ''As you sow, so shall you reap''

Somaliland has by and large wrap up an optimum 20 years of Peace, Security and Stability that born out of its people’s resoluteness, wisdom and unyielding principles towards a genuine reconciliation through a sundry of traditional/modern Peace-Making in a methodical manner in a less manipulative atmosphere that is home, accessible, and with multitude small scale talks running parallel along the major one to settle particular issue, disputes or grievances, unlike the 14 foreign driven so called Peace conferences held for Southern Somalia.

Paradoxes of democracy on Africa

“I solemnly hands power to new President Ahmed Silanyo, who beat me in the recent elections,” said the outgoing Head of State Riyale Kahin, on 27 July. Somaliland, which declared itself independent in 1991, but not to date recognized by the ‘international community’, are pluralistic elections are held peacefully. A rarity in the Horn of Africa.  By Gerard Prunier

The contrast is striking: the border of Somalia – if any symbol of the failed state – Somaliland held on 26 June one of the most democratic elections ever known in Africa continent of many years. This paradox is explained largely by history.

How to Defeat Radical Islam. By Ayaan Hirsi Ali

What's the Big Idea?

"In the long term the best way to beat radical ideas is to make them redundant," says Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a politician and ardent critic of fundamentalist Islam. During her recent Big Think interview, she told us that this could be done by making clear to young Muslims that there are alternative narratives than those offered by radicalism. Given the death of Osama bin Laden's and the democratic revolutions sweeping the Arab world, are we witnessing exactly that shift?

Hirsi Ali harkens this strategy to boosting "the immune systems of young minds" so that they are able to recognize totalitarian ideologies and to defend themselves against them, citing a two-pronged approach:
