I read your article on Foreign Policy with keen eyes and interest. While whining from public officials does not deserve response from any sensible citizen of the Republic of Somalia, I felt compelled to counter false narrative with more objective analysis.

By Mr. Mohamud M Uluso - Consistent with his unfailing mission to speak for the best interest of the failed, fragmented and powerless Somalia, Professor Michael Weinstein of Perdue University, Indiana, USA has tried one more time to reason with the Somali Elite and the International Community (donor/powers) about the main problem hobbling the Provisional Federal Government (PFG) of Somalia as its predecessors through his analysis published on December 29, 2012.
By Malkhadir M Muhumed - Only a day after Somalia’s President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud was sworn into office, the stark reality of his country dawned on him: Army commanders told him “they can’t rule out the possibility of security forces moving out of their bases to rob the public and businesses” in the capital because they were not paid for five months. Nor did they receive rations for three months.
Kenya and Ethiopia Insist Arranging Local Administrations in Somalia - By Abdi Dirshe - The Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), the regional organization for East African countries that include, among others, Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia, has recently published an unsigned and troubling Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) which indicates that the new government of Somalia is allowing Kenya and Ethiopia to oversee the “political and administrative arrangements in South-central Somalia". Ethiopia claims that this MOU was signed by a Somali General, Mohamed Sheikh Hassan, authorized by the Somali Prime Minister.

Addis Ababa (KON) - Many were hoping that recent peace talks between the Ethiopian government and Ogaden rebels would signal an end to the gruelling 18-year-old conflict. The latest round of talks, however, dashed all dreams of peace between the two sides.
By Bashir Goth - No matter what one thinks, or in what color one tries to see the appointment of Fawzia Yusuf Haji Adam as the first woman Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of Somalia and indeed in the Horn of Africa and the Arab World.
John Foster Dulles - The measure of success is not whether you have a tough problem to deal with, but whether it is the same problem you had last year.
