Not bad.

This is one of my favourite city pictures of pre-war Somalia (got it from wikipedia though)

@Grant what kind of camera were you using ?

Is Somalia part of your life, I mean is it very sentimental value to you ?

I think it was a Kodak Instamatic. I only had two rolls of film and no ability to get them developed. These were sent to my parents.

I intended to retire in Jilib and I remain in contact with friends who are now in Columbus. Many thanks to the Duchess for getting us back together. Many

of the Volunteers who served maintain similar contacts and have done their bits to help over the years. We are nearly all sentimental and stay active

and connected through a Google Group.

Apparently she got hooked up with one of her tourist guide or something because she has a biracial child. The one that has posted it.

Even the president thanks her.

Nigga are you still trolling with the fake account.

Actually it was Menace ( my former name) who put you in contact with your jilib friends. @Duchess is a different person all together. She helps no one unless you're her clan

@Grant

Those pictures you posted is it Taleex or Jilib?

I'm only interested because I would like to know what it looked like before the war happened

It looks the same

Well I did not mean it that way mate, but trust me when i tell you appart from capital, all of Somalia was pretty much a shithole with only basic infrastructure and nomads inhabitants, whereas today even little villages that was once ghost towns have basic electricity, phone lines and good trade in other words they have it better today.

Trust me today's Somalia is more fair then yesterday, we only need a government that's effective

@merka Oh god! Please ban me. I've had an 18% drop in productivity.lool

In all honesty the irony in this thread is that we can't move forward starting into a rear view. No government official has developed a future city plan for any city in the Somali peninsula.

City plan? Let's see if we can practice basic resource management and avoid people starving before we fantasise about futuristic landscapes.

Also add another 100 years to those estimates.

The people need more hope then seeing Turkish flags on rice bags.

I've decided to not be hopeful of anything located in what I've labeled QAARADA HABAARTA QABTA.
