Almotamar.net - Member of the Supreme Commission for Elections and referendum (SCER) Dr Mohammed Abdullah al-Siyany on Saturday told almotamar.et the SCERhas almost finished drafting and amending all publications, forms and guides related to the phase of reviewing and amending electors' tables in preparation for the parliamentary elections scheduled in April next year.
Al-Siyany said work is underway around the clock at the technical sector as well as other sectors in order to finish the preparations as soon as possible due to the little time allowed for the SCER because of the delay in formation of the Commission. Nevertheless, he affirmed that the SCER is still committed to the constitutional and legal dates for carrying out the phase of revising and correcting electors' tables. He has made it clear that the SCER last week asked political parties to provide it with names of their representatives in the supervising, major and branch committees for the stage of revising and correcting electors' tables hoping the political p [arties would provide names of their representatives in line with the shares adopted in the local and presidential elections of 2006.
In 2007 the opposition Yemen Congregation for Reform (Islah) Islamic oriented Party maintained its having political and media sway over the Joint meeting Parties (JMP) block, also consisting of Yemen Socialist Party and the Nasserite Unionist Organisation.
Yemen is practically a cool green paradise, with crisp mountain air, enormous acacia trees, pristine coral reefs and verdant fields bursting with khat, a psychoactive plant that induces mild euphoria.
Sana'a: Yemen will not be able to combat terror without regional and international cooperation, said a Yemeni official, who warned of the ramifications of letting Yemen fight terrorism alone.
Doctors use the word “crisis” to describe the point at which a patient either starts to recover or dies. President George W. Bush’s Iraqi patient now seems to have reached that point. Most commentators appear to think that Bush’s latest prescription – a surge of 20,000 additional troops to suppress the militias in Baghdad – will, at best, merely postpone the inevitable death of his dream of a democratic Iraq. Yet as “Battle of Baghdad” begins, factors beyond Bush’s control and not of his making (at least not intentionally) may just save Iraq from its doom.
