Historically it might be right that Canada was according to the western history writing the engine of the Political recognition of China mainland within the western world but the Chinese revolution led by the legendary chairman Mao Tse-tung (Oct 1,1949) and the birth of the Maoism in China and the whole world was irreversible. Later the cold war has divided the world in to two computing ideological systems and China/Taiwan conflict was an integral component of that conflict. The belatedly political recognition of China by the US American political establishment was only the logical political consequence of the global political reality at time. The never ending political crises between China/Taiwan and many other bloody conflicts particularly in Africa and Latin-America was systematically initiated by the cold war major actors and have been carried out by chauvinistic secessionist or ethnic-clan movements in many developing countries. However, bring that dark historical events again in connection to the so-called “Somaliland” primitive clan based secessionism absolutely deserves the predicate sticking -in- the mud and is not politically a good artistic performance. Canada knows much better than any other nation what secessionist movement means and the Quebec secessionism is a periodically occurring (Quebec referendum, 1980, Oct 24, 1995 Cree Indian referendum, Oct 26, Northern Quebec, last referendum Oct 30, 1995) ritual and that was the major reason why Canada became perhaps the motor of China mainland political recognition within the Western countries. Apropos Quebec Canadians were at least asked to decide democratically if they want to stay with Canada or not. In Contrast to that, in the Self declared republic of “Somaliland” unionists aren't even allowed to enter their country or are simply jailed if they take part any conference concerning Somalia let alone asking the people what they really want. . Having said that, the territorial separation of Eritrea from Ethiopia came into being after 30 liberation years against Ethiopian occupation and ended after the total collapse of the Ethiopian Military regime in early 1991. The sovereign Eritrean people decided later in April 23 to 25 1993 in a well organized free and fair referendum for the independence of Eritrea from Ethiopia . Furthermore, the Political recognition of West Sahara Republic by the South African government today has a long historical back ground which is backed by the AU and the United Nations after Morocco invaded and occupied 1975 illegally the West Sahara . However, it is absolutely incorrect to say South Africa is looking favorably towards the independence of the self declared republic of Somaliland that is what the Indian/South African lobbyist and self declared “ Somaliland ” Ambassador disseminate. Besides that, it is quite well know to us (outsider may learn) Somalis that the people in the Regions of Awdal, Sool, Sanag and Togedhee r are literally against the separation but they support the peaceful co-existence and Governance of the region. In addition to that, Somali people in Sool and Sanag consider them self freely as natural and administration wise as part of the Autonomous Punt land region of Somalia as well as the Great (Somaaliween) Somalia . By the time Honorable Paul Martin becomes the driving force for the recognition of the self declared “Somaliland” and more external political intervention gets involved in the Northwest Somali issue another Dafuur will become inevitable although the people in Togdheer, Sool, and Sanag are already periodically starving due to droughts and food shortages and consequently the peaceful situation in the area will be passé. A growing significant number of very popular and politically influential business people in Hargeisa are questioning now more and more the realistic economical existences and viability of the region However, it is more than surprising why our academicians like Mrs. Daudelin, Jean and Mr. Seymour, Lee simply ignore their beloved democratic regulations which provided millions and millions in the democratic western hemisphere a high standard of living conditions and peace. Let me make a short humorous satiric and to certain extend ironic suggestions. Mr. Seymour Lee, apart from the fact that South Korean people and progressive students are struggling decades for the reunification of Korea and the people of Hong Kong are today de facto reunited with the motherland China under certain agreements but while you are now may be based in Paris perhaps it is more logic and closer for you to support the Corsican secessionist movement and write similar memo letter to President Jac Chirac. Another alternative liberation movement which is geographically also very close to join and I highly recommend is the most popular European Baskanland secessionist or separatist movement. Of course I don't recommend the armed wing the “ETA” with the slogan “ETA Politico Militare ”. For your college and co-writer Mrs. Daudelin, Jean I could suggest for her to join the peaceful Quebec independence movement which isn't may be that far away from her location and the Paul Martin's government members may democratically orchestrate it again although I doubt that Paul Martin will be excited. All in all we need peaceful coexistence (no war) with prosperity in Somalia and the Somali unionists in Northwest Somalia are the better option with vision. Just take USA and Germany as a living past and recent history of the world and in contrast to your memo that is the best memo I could send to the Canadian premier Minister Paul Martin and is good enough also for our nation.
