    Wow – this is great. Big thanks to Norway for providing solar energy!

  3. Thnk you Norway…Somalia has got many negative names but i am sure my country has great potential and can be next Singapore in the Horn.

  4. They’re installing solar powered lights because the electricity infrastructure isn’t reliable, not because of any global warming concerns.
