Important message from #Somaliland Journalists👇
Moving from criminalisation under the Penal Code to regulation by civil procedures codified in an updated Media Law will:
➡️ ensure media accountability
➡️ raise journalistic standards
➡️ reinforce SL’s commitment to #mediafreedom
The Somaliland Journalists are collectively calling for the alleviation of Somali Penal code of 1962 in Somaliland courts.
Message: 'Media shoud not be #Criminalized rather Civil produres is used stipulated by Media laws'

📰 I wholeheartedly support this message. #FreePress is the cornerstone of democracy. #Taiwan supports #Somaliland in its quest for freedom and int'l recognition. #Taipei& #Hargeisa should work 2gthr to ensure Somalilanders can benefit from the free flow of reliable information.
