Somalia To Get Billions In Economic And Technical Assistance

[Somalian_Boqor]

This upcoming London Conference is no Joke! TFG is already pushing to get the Arms embargo lifted. This single day conference that has been in parperation for months now is not about reconciliation or another conference to create a Somali Government, as one exists already. The process of reconciliation are being undertaken at different avenues like the Somali road map and the creation of the Somali Federal constitution taking place inside Somalia.

This London conference is not political, all about Economics. EU, US and the rest of the world will give monetary support to help rebuild the Somali economy in order to combat the spread of Terrorism. War-devastated Somalia will be rebuild, trade barriers removed, industries will be established and modernized. Somalia will be made prosperous.This conference is the development of the Somali reconstruction plan. Numbers ranging from 58 Billion to 95 Billion will be given to Somalia in economic and technical assistance for the recovery of Somali Statehood. This Conference will also address obstacle to postwar recovery. The London conference will be looking to the future and will instill a sense of hope and self-reliance for the Somali people and republic.

Least but not least this Conference is about Empowerment for the Internationally Recognized Federal Government of Somalia.

Also note that this money will not be in TFG hands. Only after August of this year, and the establishment of the Permanent Somali Government will these funds be handed over. So who ever become President of Somalia come August 2012 will become real Powerful pretty quick.

Somali PM wants 'Marshall Plan' at London meeting and indeed that is what he will get.



Somali Prime Minister Abdiweli Mohamed Ali said Monday he hoped an upcoming conference in London on the war-torn country would produce a "Marshall Plan" to end two decades of chaos.
"Somalia expects a lot from this conference. We expect the establishment of a trust fund for Somalia. We expect a complete reconstruction plan for Somalia. We expect a Marshall Plan for Somalia," he told AFP in an interview.
British Prime Minister David Cameron will chair the February 23 conference, gathering Somali and foreign leaders to find a solution to the civil unrest that has plagued Somalia almost without interruption since 1991.
The meeting will "help galvanise a common approach to address the problems and challenges of Somalia that affect us all," according to the Foreign Office.
"I hope the London conference will galvanise the international support for Somalia, bring back the attention of the international community on Somalia, and with it all the necessary help for rebuilding Somalia," said the Somali premier.
Earlier this month, British Foreign Secretary William Hague visited the war-wracked Somali capital, marking a new drive by London to address the Horn of Africa state's protracted crisis.
During the visit, London also appointed an ambassador to Somalia, the first in 21 years.
Somalia has lacked an effective central government since president Mohamed Siad Barre was ousted in 1991, unleashing cycles of bloody conflicts that have defied countless peace initiatives.
Since then, Somalia has been variously governed by ruthless warlords and militia groups in mini-fiefdoms, becoming a by-word for "failed state".
A hardline Islamist movement with links to Al-Qaeda now controls much of southern and central Somalia, while pirate gangs rule coastal villages.
The Islamist Shebab rebels have been fighting to topple the Western-backed Somali government in Mogadishu, where the administration survives under the protection of an African Union force of 10,000 men.

Somali Government Calls for End to Arms Embargo




Somalia's government has called for an end to the international arms embargo on the country so it can better fight the militant group al-Shabab.

In a statement Monday, the government said al-Shabab's union with al-Qaida, announced last week, will increase insecurity in Somalia and East Africa, and that Somalia risks becoming a base for the terrorist network.

The government said it wants an end to the U.N. embargo, which was imposed in 1992 soon after Somalia's last stable government fell and the country descended into chronic violence.

Officials also asked for reinforcements to the national army and for direct assistance to the government.

In an interview with VOA's Somali Service, an al-Shabab official defended the merger with al-Qaida. Sheikh Mohamed Osman Arous called the union an "Islamic obligation."

"Muslims share Islamic religion, any Muslim from anywhere in the world can unite with a Muslim brother on the other side, and we have to become one," Arous said.

Arous said al-Qaida and al-Shabab plan to work toward the application of sharia, Islamic law across Somalia.

Al-Shabab is known for imposing a strict form of sharia in the parts of Somalia under its control. The group has executed people or chopped off their hands for alleged crimes.

A crowd of at least several-hundred people attended an al-Shabab-organized rally Monday west of the capital, Mogadishu.

The group was recently pushed out of the capital by government and African Union troops, but continues to carry out attacks in the city, including a deadly suicide car bombing last week.

Al-Shabab still controls large sections of southern and central Somalia, though it is facing pressure from Ethiopian troops in the center and Kenyan troops in the south.

Al-Qaida chief Ayman al-Zawahri welcomed the group into al-Qaida last week through a video message posted to jihadist websites.

Al-Shabab had previously pledged allegiance to al-Qaida, and the group has long been suspected of deploying al-Qaida-trained fighters from abroad.

all those money will be for xamar

The Money will be divided to the different governing states in Somalia. This is Federalism not centralized government where all funds never leave the Capital.

Why you think States like Puntland iyo Somaliland and Galmudug were invited if Somalia was completely represented by the TFG and all power was in Mogadishu. Those days inadeer are long gone. Everyone will get their cut the International community today knows who's who, and the power bases in Somalia.

[abgaalKING]

Hope it is true.

its destroyed, you can't have a capital city looking like that

[union]

Come on now---you actually think tens of billions of dollars will be thrown into the Somali black hole during a time of unprecedented economic crisis? From the barren desert the Somali came and there they shall go back, destitute and free to kill themselves as they like. This conference has only one agenda: how to keep the Somali savages from f-king up international trade routes.

@ FAH

This hypocrite complains all day about SL seceding yet he's much worse.

The snakes in the grass are the most dangerous. At least Landers tell you they don't want to share a Somali govt.

What's the point of remaining part of the union if you don't want anything to do with the south?

This is an International effort, the billions will be coming from the four corners of the world.

FBISOMALIA also note that this money will not be in TFG hands. Only after August of this year, and the establishment of the Permanent Somali Government will these funds be handed over. A Puntlander most likely Faroole is positioned to head the Permanent Somali Government come August 2012.

Somalia boqor

You are talking to much shit. Nobody in Somalia knows what the British intend to do, that is WHY abdiweli is trying to DEFINE the meeting before it starts.

He doesnt want the meeting to be about another useless roadmap, therefore he is making demands BEFORE the meeting starts.

This is a smart tactic from Abdiweli and the TFG. BUT William hague already said today that they do not think that the Arms embargo is going to be lifted.

So the situation is very unclear until the meeting begins.

Inshallah it will be positive and fruitful.

PS. What the fuck is wrong with you thinking about Money and aid, somalia has a 4 BILLION dollars debt, we dont need to borrow MORE. We need to convince the IMF and the Arab League to forgive our debts.

Xamar needs about 15 Billion in Reconstruction, Development, and Advancement. Inshallah our capital city will once again shine among the African capitals.
Inshallah with also the Oil boom on it's way the future looks bright for Somalia oo dhan.

The days of a City State is long over, the Whole of Somalia needs Reconstruction, Development, and Advancement. This is the only way forward and for prosperity to reach all.

The only reason we are about to get the Billions is due to the fact they know we got the Oil boom coming and can easily pay back with interest.

This conference is the development of the Somali reconstruction plan.
