Garowe, Somalia, April 10, 2010 (SL Times) – A meeting organized by the administrators and students of Omar Samatar High School took place in Puntland on Apr 5 2010. According to the BBC Somali Service the meeting was attended by students, officials from Puntland administration and Puntland’s minister of information. Although in theory the meeting was supposed to deal with piracy as well as the damage inflicted on marine and land environment by foreign vessels and navies, in reality, the program was mostly targeted at condemning foreign navies and vessels which were portrayed as the real threat to Puntland.
Among the charges that the speakers accused foreign navies and vessels were animal and bird poaching in Puntland’s territory.
