["bjorn fransson" <bjornfransson@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
The following interesting information was sent to me in an email from Sam 
Voron in Somalia. I'd like to share it with you all.
73 from Björn Fransson on the island of Gotland, Sweden

Hi Bjorn,

                       I have been in Garowe the last 2 days to talk with 
the President of Puntland, Abdulai Yussef during his short stay before he 
returns to the Somalia Government creation talks in Kenya.

                        I also met the Minister of Information and 
Telecommunications about Somalia using the human resources in the country to 
operate a world wide shortwave service which would help bring the country 
together using all the news sources that have developed around the country. 
Such an International radio would also give a voice to Africa and to the 
positive aspect of Islam and to developing nations.
                         The Minister of Information and Telecommunications 
will approach USA, EU ,Russian and other representatives to build such a 
facility in peaceful Puntland to get on air immediately and which can be 
expanded into the 4th world wide broadcaster after BBC, VOA and Radio 
Moscow.

                         The big 800Watt amplifier is back on line so you 
can try to listen again.

                         They were using only 15Watts AM while I was away 
but I heard them in Garowe which is the Puntland State capital 250km north 
of Galkayo.

                         I will most likely leave for Kismayo the following 
Thursday with a very small chance I might leave this Thursday.

                         Keep listening!

Regards,
Sam Voron
