Democratic country!
Somaliland is
democratic country, but the question is how do we know it is democratic country
and what is democracy? The definition of
democracy says that government by the people; “a form of government in which
the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by
their elected agents under a free electoral system.” If that is the definition than
does Somaliland follows the definition.
Somaliland tracks the definition; people
elect the president and supreme exercise directly by the people. The election
of Somaliland occurred as it ensues in United States and Canada. People form lines
at the morning and those lines endure when the sun goes down. Some people began
at four at the morning and ends at none. All those time people are patient and cheerful.
Children were so eager to vote but they didn’t let them to vote; their age. Boys were not let but girls were allowed
because girls were wearing a long Dirac and hijab so they didn’t know if it is
a girl or woman.
Another
concern that articulates Somaliland is democracy state is that how power share
or we can say that it is decentralized. Power is not only one place, but every
state has it is own power like Borama or Burco. People are not originated the city;
however there were place to vote in the whole country. At the end the commission of election went
every place and collects the boxes of the vote.
In Somaliland everybody has right to do whatever
he want and how he wants. Citizens were electing the representative of every
party and the government were not using any strength to vote the party. This is
how USA and Canada elect their presidential.
Somaliland is free country and freedom
speech accurse every place and every village, but the only difficult is they
use what we call clan arrangement which is kind of ancient evolution and so
many people disagree, but it bonds the government and the nomadic people. So that
is the motive why they use the clan system.
