Somalia: stepping into the future
Yesterday, Somalia marked a major milestone in its recent history. After two decades of civil war, and a year after the Roadmap was agreed, the Transitional Period finally concluded with the election by MPs of new President Hassan Sheikh Mohamoud. This was the first such election inside Somalia for many years and came just weeks after the agreement on a new provisional Constitution, the successful inauguration of the new federal Parliament and the election of a new Speaker. Thanks to their leadership, Somalis have delivered a more accountable, more representative and more legitimate Parliament; the result of dialogue, compromise and, above all, a desire for change and to break with the past.
As British Prime Minister David Cameron said earlier today this is a significant and important step. As the British Ambassador to Somalia, I fully echo our Prime Minister’s message. We also look forward now to the prompt appointment of a new Prime Minister and a new government.
The UK has fully supported this Somali process. The London Conference on Somalia in February was an important milestone in galvanizing international support behind Somalia. We have supported the UN, the African Union and IGAD in their attempts to help Somalis bring greater stability to their country. Above all, though, we have continued to support Somalis reclaim their country. The political developments come on the back of the advances made by Somalia’s security forces and AMISOM troops in recent months – in Mogadishu, Afgoye, Baidoa, Beletweyne, and Afmadow. For the first time in many years people are rebuilding their properties and businesses. Confidence is increasing and members of the diaspora are returning, many of them young and energetic.
As we reflect on what has been achieved, so we should also start to look forward. There is clearly much to do. Somalia still faces many daunting challenges – the gains made are fragile. Strengthening safety and security; building more effective governance; improving maternal and child health; combating corruption; and strengthening the economy so that more Somalis have a stake in their country’s future – these are the challenges that will face the new government.
Rest assured, the UK will continue to help; we’re in this for the long-term. But, ultimately, Somalia’s future will rest on the choices of its people and the actions of its leaders. It is only through continued and more effective leadership that Somalia can once again have the sort of accountable and representative institutions needed to respond to the aspirations of the Somali people.
So as we mark what has been achieved, we now look to Somalia’s leaders to ensure that this fragile and hard-won momentum is not lost and that they demonstrate their determination and commitment to deliver real and sustainable progress – transparently, accountably and credibly. As Somalia decides, so its people continue to demand greater change and a brighter future. After twenty years of conflict, they deserve and need nothing less. Now that would be something really worth celebrating.
As always, I welcome your comments.
“Aid for oil’- fair deal. comon, whatelse can possibly make the U.K to help Somalis, they never helped in the past and it is unlikly to do so in the future. In my opinion, they want oil and to understand the means to obtain that oil, they have to hide themselves under the pretext of never-ending-never helping-non exitant thing called “AID’.
Thanks for the article Matt.
I went back to the place of my birth Mogadishu for the first time in 21 years, and I can’t tell you how incredible it felt to walk the streets of Somalia’s capital without the fear of being killed or robbed at gun point.
I hope the Somali Government and AMISOM continues there tireless efforts to fight terrorists in Somalia, particularly Al-shabaab in the South and the newly formed terror group calling itself ‘Khatumo’ in Somaliland. Both these groups need to be eliminated before there can be a lasting peace in Somalia as a whole.

Pentagon Mulls Legal Action Against SEAL
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon’s top lawyer has informed the former Navy SEAL who authored a forthcoming book describing details of the raid that killed Osama bin Laden that he violated agreements to not divulge military secrets and that as a result the Pentagon is considering taking legal action against him.
Editor’s Note: Get ‘No Easy Day’ for $4.95! Go Here Now
The general counsel of the Defense Department, Jeh Johnson, wrote in a letter transmitted to the author on Thursday that he had signed two nondisclosure agreements with the Navy in 2007 that obliged him to “never divulge” classified information. Johnson said that after reviewing a copy of the book, “No Easy Day,” the Pentagon concluded that the author is in “material breach and violation” of the agreements.
Johnson said the department is considering pursuing against him “all remedies legally available to us.”
This is indeed a turning point in Somali history.We do wish the new president best wishes and hopes he picks a good prime minister who is not corrupt and will deliver on peace,security and development.i am also happy to note that the new president is a staunch proponent of a united and indivisible Somalia.We welcome him to visit his motherland Khaatumo State which rightly belongs to Somalia and fully supports the unity of the country.
We are happy that the illusionary dreams of a separate Somaliland have been shattered,and we welcome back our bothers and sisters in Somaliland back to their rightful and legitimate government.
We will however hold Ahmed Silanyo and his ministers responsible for the crimes they have commited against the civilian populations of Khaatumo.
Long live Khaatumo!
Long live Somalia!
I would like to advice you that you learn the history of your country before you comment on Somali history. Somali history can not be limmited to Somalia since there are other Somali nations. Somaliland never become part of Somalia according to the Act of Union of Somaliland and Somalia. Somaliland and Somalia were the building blocks of the country that was known “Somali Republic” here is how the Act of Union termed : “The State of Somaliland and the State of Somalia do hereby unite and shall forever remain united in a new, independent, democratic, unitary republic the name whereof shall be the Somali Republic.” Check this link: http://www.somalilandlaw.com/Somaliland_Act_of_Union.htm
Please base your claims on factual points.
Alexis Arief o Yale International Relations once added to his May 2008 stadies a past UK minister’s following statement:
“During a parliamentary session in December 2007, Minister of State Mark Malloch Brown stated that his government’s policy was to “support international efforts to develop a peaceful and sustainable democracy in Somaliland [and] encourage the Somaliland authorities to engage in constructive dialogue with the transitional federal government to agree [on] a mutually acceptable solution regarding their future relationship,” phrasing that would indicate a wide array of “acceptable” situations, including full statehood.”
Acceptable situations, in most of the regional experts are peacefull dialogue and reality proves that the people of Somaliland deserve attention since they long waited for formation of permenant and legitimate government. A government that is a real counterpart of Somaliland to revisit the legacy of the failed union of 1960. Somaliland’s self-determination respected by Somalia is the only forward way out of the long-lived regional instability.
Poeple of Somalia doesn’t need the return of the events of 1988 war that was really the antecedent of the Somalia’s fall.
No disrespect for the ambasador Baugh, but why most of you seem to be appealing to the diplomat about decisions that belongs to you Somalia people. You always have the recognition without independence while Somaliland has enjoyed independence without recongition. Why can’t we help each other gain the goals. They don’t overlap. Your independence does’n depend on Somaliland’s lack of recognition and Somaliland’s recognition does’t depend on lack of Somalia’s independence.
ihope new president somali will back in somalia ex goverment
The highly hard-headed Somali-Landers recognition of Democracy into peace and a recently Somalia’s far enough will to practice peace and democracy after 21 years of war-lording experiences.
The UK Role York University HRDR study analyzes and recommendations British Am+bassador to Somalia, Nairobi
The beginning of the generation our promises are based on the fundamental initiatives of Democracy, Greater Unity, international cooperation, economic development, free and fair election, Human rights Respect, human rights defending protection and promotion implementation of the MDG, creation of income sources, exploring Sea, Air, and land to regenerate the explore able economic growth under inners.
Among the most logical leaders in law politics economic values freedom of movements and human rights defending,
The government of Somaliland would enforce recognition with some political specific attention to UK and both US up to some extent and level possibly would otherwise determine a success that must and have been reached on the other hand but an economic loss of the world trade center and the London underground explosion and losses of Great Britain………………………….had on our side a great consideration and international Landers proverb says:- in the case of any loss’s took place of economy at your and around neighbor all must the others should to do is support the neighbor and if you can’t help much and he is still with the loss, stronger than you as you may or the others think, you need to avoid asking so much where he has the right to ask with strong background (sleep him sideways understood with comfort) confidence and get him in the support. In this case the Somaliland governments had made this great opportunity of respect to UK and US and those of the same plight since 9/11 and that of the British London underground which we must to still keep on our truck records besides the British leadership had made a quite clear answer towards a Somali moving to semi development still understandable.
And the main aim was not at all that the Somaliland deceased presidents MR Mohamed H. Ibrahim Egal got nothing no recognition from the United States, or UK further we are quite really happy with the Herros in the leadership to the present time. Since there is a strong central government. Democratic, Republican respects all the international Governments laws and rule of Human Rights role, Defending and Development.
Somalia’s nation building latest developments.
It is September 10 and now by 5:30 minutes the presidential election goes on at the School Policia Mogadishu the first time in history semi rural Democracy exercise took long place in the southern regions of Somalia for 43 years as the reporters said.
You could see in the crowds of 220 parliamentarian representing the Somali people not officially elected as the main Somali Unity segregated state has been doing for the last 12 years in Africa an action appreciated by those appreciate in reality what democracy peace and development are all about in this so much young world.
And now this time 5:38 Sheikh sheriff leads the role still
And now it is 6:36 of the African East African time. Though sometimes very soon coming the president will be elected the Somali presidential election had some remarks on the unexpected winners at this stage PR Osoble has made a marvelous and come to the last not least 4 that the people should rally for .
The second man with extreme caution of how far he has done in the first second and third rounds as he is now among the 4 one of them as the president will be elected tonight as expected.
How far the Sherriff could add the coming rounds as we are aware that ongoing talks are (we have met BW behind the curtain)
1 Sheriff 64
2 Hassan sh 60
3 Ali Gas 30
4 OSOBLEH 27
A TOTAL OF 182
As the first two above seems to be the latest either one to be voted for the tomorrow president of Somalia.
In any fairness let us say if the Isakson’s as part of the Somali people the amount they do rightly belong is that 275/18= 15 per region. And the DIR occupied regions are two in the south Marka Shebelle the Biyomaal and the Fiqi how much Omer would bring in the Votes.
He has in the fair division 6×15= 90 that means+ lopping the Dir would come to a position 90+30% of the remaining 120. (prayers based Rule 75/150/). But the Dir was too late to plan and should replant. (The Egal 1960 Irrirsm political win of the Somali prime minister). On other hand the S/ Landers (no more walk to M) port has been taken to prison after allegedly accused of theft of 10, million Somaliland shilling something like $ 1500 dollars from the port labors.
The second round is expected to start after the Maqrib sunset prayers the power is off and it is 7:18 AET

There is a high level of optimism amongst Somalis as the country has a recognised government after 20+ years of civil war. This is an opportunity for both IC and Somalis to work together in positive direction. We need one/two strong partners from IC and I hope UK can fill-in one of those positions as Turkey has already demonstrated they are more than willing to invest in rebuilding Somalia from all avenues.
I just read an article on Bloomberg titled: “Help Somalia’s New President: Cut Off Aid”
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-09-11/help-somalia-s-new-president-cut-off-aid.html
I get the point that article is trying to make however we hope there is no pre-assumption made with this new President as he is clearly not the same as old President and he was elected to bring change. One of those changes we are eagerly anticipating is the elimination of corruption, reconciliation, rebuilding the economy and finally rebuilding strong and credible government institutions. To do this requires investment of both time and money. It is up to the new President and new PM to come up with a strategy to make this happen they for sure will spend all the time they have from now until the next 4 yrs to make this happen. However they may not have the capital initially to make this project successful. Therefore IC must support Somalia in AID with support of FMB to monitor and check the funds are properly managed. Ideally we hope FMB will have nothing to do as this new government will not miss-manage state funds and correctly spend aid it will recieve from IC. It is therefore high time UK to fill-in that second role Somalis need from IC. This is from Aid only there will be other challenges and there is a need to have one consensus message from UK & Turkey including EU, AU including US can support Somalia specially in security, piracy and rebuilding the Somali Army so that AMISOM can reduce its numbers of troops and eventually in 2-3 years handover complete security management to Somali National Army. This must happen for the sake of peace, security and stability. If IC doesn’t support this Somalia is in danger to slip back to clan warfare, allowing Al-Shabab to fill-in the vacuum that will be left behind eventually when AMISOM pull-out. For real lasting peace Somalia needs strong National Army. Also with AMISOM gone there is a chance for the Somali government to negotiate with elements of Al-Shabab that would like to be part of the peace reconciliation process. Currently they are refusing to sit down with government only because they claim Somalia is under occupation when clearly is not the case but to make progress there is a need for Somali government to stand on its own two feet without foreign armies protecting its government offices, airport, and main ports. Government must have a monopoly of power and Somali government to be taken seriously by Al-Shabab it needs to show it can take care of its own affairs without hiding behind foreign armies. There will be no more excuses for elements of Al-Shabab who call for the pull-out of AMISOM forces. Somali people are tired of war and want to see a lasting peace. War/fighting doesn’t bring peace only through dialog there can be a lasting peace.
Somalis thank her majesty’s government.
Indeed its fragile but in the other hand I am quite optimistic about the future.
As a Somalilander I hope that the elected president will be able to tackle poverty, fight curruption, terrorism, tribalisum and bring back all somalis together as one to take their stand in the internnational community once again, united and a federal Somali for all Somalis.
The simple fact that we all know in Somaliland is the fact that we are and will not ever be able to live without greater Somali, simply because we are one family although we come from different tribes and every tribe wants to rule the other but deep down no tribe or clan cant survive by itself “you can’t clap with one hand”. So we all have to do it together with the help of the international community in particuar UK.
Finally like they always say what goes around comes around, we have to protect and respect the rights of the indegious Gabooye.
Thank you to the Somali parliament and people of Somalia
Thank you Mr Prime minister
Thank you Mr President
And God bless the Queen
Professor you are a wiseman
“Optimism create positivism” and sometimes is good to celebrate early, This is mew page and new chapter for Somalia and Somalis people, “nothing changes if nothing changes” The time for change has come with god willing.
What we need now as Somalis to change our attitude towards our future, we need to think differently and see things differently.
Somalis need positive mental attitude and be more optimistic about the future as they had a lot of difficult times and hardships in the past.
I do not have a word to describe the on going support that British people and British governments give to Somalis needy people. I am very hopeful Somalis people will to pay UK back for its consistent support to Somalis People.
I would like to thank Ambassador Matt Baugh for his tireless determine effort for supporting Somali people and finally Many thanks for British Prime Minister David Cameron.

Congratulations Somalia. I am not sure that we would ever be able to pay Britain back for its consistent support to Somalia and for extending the hand of friendship throughout the years. It is up to the Somalis now to show that the efforts and the good will of those who believed in it aren’t wasted, to demonstrate the validity of this belief and to prove all the sceptics wrong.
Somalia needs a leadership that trusts and believes in his people, people in return need to believe in themselves, their leader and their abilities to rise up as a self-determining nation.
Success is when we recognise mistakes, and mistakes do happen. In the case of Somalia, we need to acknowledge our past mistakes and learn from them. We also need to recognise when we do achieve goals, so we start new endeavours with confidence. Somalia has achieved many goals in such a short period of time in the past few months. This shows that we have what it takes. So capitalise on these successes.
Good luck to the new leader and to Somalia. And thank you to all our friends.

Well done to Amb Matt Baugh. I am terribly proud that my adopted country representative Amb Baugh who was present at this defining moment of Somalia’s history. It shows the commitment by her majesty’s government towards the people of Somalia. We are cautiously optimistic but hope that this government will indeed be one that delivers for the people of Somalia. The first test is the selection of the PM. The president must be deliberative in choosing his PM and should consider appointing someone who will compliment him in skills and experience wise. The principle tasks in front of the President are in broad terms: 1. Conciliation, 2 Institutional building- security, justice, PFM, competent Civil Service etc…. The president is well equipped for the former and will need a PM who has a plethora of experience in transitioning states. There aren’t many Somalia with such experience but there are a few and his team should think outside the box. PhD only will not suffice this time around!

On behave of my fellow country men and women I want thank the equanimity shown by the British government.
The British government has mitigated misunderstanding between the different functions in somalia.I am not saying every thing is solved but this is good beginning.
I am really exciting since I heard that Somali MPs elected a new president Mr Hassan who academic, activist, works education and social services.
I sure that effort did not came easily by chance but it was came by promised on 23 February in London conference led by British government.
So I would like to thanks all British people by helping Somali people here in UK and in Somalia too.
I am still saying we need your help more especially new presedent Mr Hassan,
We need to give advice and training to our new elected presedent.
Dear Matt Baugh,
Thanks for your continues assisting and collaborations as well as political guidance to the Somali politician and intellectuals those were useful to the Somali People, The History will mention all those efforts Britain Government offered to Somali people both those hosted in Britain and those in the country.
Very good piece indeed. However, Ambassador Baugh though he is pompous about the achievements so far in ending the transition sounds bit skeptical about the road ahead.
congratulation
Yes, ambassador, I as journalist from Somaliland, expect appointment of new president of Somalia, Mr. Hassan Sheikh Mohamoud, would product restoring overdue peace most of Somalia population were eagerly anticipating, and once for all reach gentleman agreement with Somaliland leaders to peacefully be two neighboring countries.
