The new parliament - comprising a 275-member lower house and a yet-to-be-launched upper house with a maximum of 54 members - is tasked with electing the president, the speaker and two deputy speakers.
It will be allowed to go ahead with voting Monday if a quorum of more than two-thirds of the lower house - 184 members - is present.

You're right. How gullible of me to think that these elders and MPs would do it on time

it is because of shariif trying to pressure mahiga to allow the inclusion of warlords from his tribe. faroole is telling mahiga to stick by the rules and allow no warlords in the new parliamant... thats why its postponed.
