It is also funny how the world media overlooks Somaliland, the most peaceful part of what used to be known as Somalia. Somaliland has been peaceful for the last 15 years as chaos prevailed in the rest of Somalia(proper). It recently held multi party parliamentary elections, in addition to presidential and local elections in 2002 and 2003 respectively. But all that didn't make into the headlines.

Again the world media is overlooking the hardwork Somaliland is putting in trying to secure its coasts from pirates that operate in the lawless Somalia(Proper). Somaliland's waters are very secure and in the past 15 years there no single piracy incident reported. its main port is used by Ethiopia (a neighboring country) and commercial ships dock and refuel at Berbera port. yet the world media cements Somaliland to the same negative coverage as the lawless Somalia. Which is very unfair considering that Somalilanders are doing everything to distant themselves from the chaos that has become of Somalia.
