March, 13 - Somali government moves to Mogadishu



afrol News / IRIN, - Somalia's interim parliament has voted to move the transitional government to Mogadishu, the capital, from its temporary seat in Baidoa, barely three months after Ethiopian-backed government forces ousted the Islamist movement from the city. Despite the growing violence, the government has aimed at securing Mogadishu within 30 days.

Many Mogadishu residents have already left the city to escape the daily exchange of mortar and artillery fire between the government forces, supported by African Union peacekeepers, and Islamist insurgents. Rough estimates put the numbers of people displaced from Mogadishu since January at 18,000-30,000.

Government security officials detained Hassan Sade Dhaqane of 'HornAfrik' radio and television on 9 March and he has not been seen since, according to 'HornAfrik' managing partner, Ali Iman Sharmarke. "We have not seen him or heard from him since Friday," Mr Sharmarke said. "It is becoming a trend to harass the free media. The arrest of Hassan is meant to discourage others from reporting unfavourable news," he added.

It can be concluded thqt the effort of the government to move to the capital of the country is to generate a enviroment of confidence in the autority of this nation. In adition, the denunciations of some members of the free press of Somalia, induce to think that the goverment is trying to hide the real situation of public order in the country.

The strong effort of the goverment to show a stable public situation, is exlained because of if the country is stable, the risk-country rate, become lower. It makes the investors more factible invest in Somlia.
