Somaliland:WhatIsNew

Reporters Without Borders (RSF) condemns the closure of one of the main independent TV channels in northwestern Somalia’s self-proclaimed independent state of Somaliland and the arrest of its editor. The attempts by Somaliland’s authorities to silence journalists are becoming increasingly frequent, RSF said. This week’s closure of Horn Cable TV in Somaliland’s capital, Hargeisa, comes just two months after police inflicted similar treatment on another Hargeisa TV channel, Horyaal TV closing it down and arresting its president.Police from Somaliland’s Criminal Affairs Department arrived at Horn Cable TV’s headquarters at around 9 a.m., on 18 November, ordered its staff to shut it down, and arrested its editor, Abdikadir Saleban Asayr. A court in Hargeisa quashed the closure order the next day but ruled that Asayr should be detained provisionally for seven days. The reason for his arrest is not yet clear. But Somaliland’s civil aviation ministry lodged a complaint against Horn

This appeared in the Morning Star 22 November 2019 A LABOUR victory on December 12 means Christmas has come early. A Labour government is a gift we give to ourselves. Labour aims to “kick start a housing revolution.” Its pledge to build hundreds of thousands of council homes is a keystone policy and sets the tone for much of the manifesto. A construction programme on this scale not only offers hope to hundreds of thousands of people in housing need but it also boosts the building industry, drives consumer confidence and empowers local authorities while the rents become an income stream for further construction. If ever a country needed a government that was intent on “future proofing” the economy and the environment then Britain is that country. Our country’s post-war economy has been characterised by low levels of industrial investment with a capitalist class that was content to let productivity slide while they exported capital abroad in industrial quantities rather than

We keep hearing calls for unity in our Somaliland right now, though these aren’t spoken as a genuine desire of peace making between two hurting sides, they’re spoken as chastisements of one side by another. They are words of scolding and shaming delivered by Colonel Muse Bihi Abdi through chairman Faysal Ali Warabe & Co to a hurting people of Somaliland everywhere. They are not spoken with benevolence but malice. They are voices speaking to the ears of the marginalized in the middle of their mourning. The Unity call from Heego and their servants Chairman Faysal Ali Waraabe One of them, that unity call is a fool-proof conversation stopper, delivered by those who do not wish to have the conversation at hand or to deal with the depths of the despair another is carrying because they have never had to, that is how they silenced Professor Ali Khalif Galydh and Professor Ahmed Ismail Samatar. In the wake of the protests happening throughout the Somaliland in response to the injus
