Our Mission
The SunaTimes is an independent voice in print and on the web. We
report news responsibly and truthfully so that readers can improve
their own lives and increase their understanding and respect for their
neighbors next door and around the globe. In our approach and in our
content, we uphold universal human values, rights, and freedoms. We
are a business that puts our readers' interests first, in all that we
do.
Who We Are
The Sunatimes.com is a privately held news media company. The
center is in Mogadishu, but our network of local reporters throughout
the country uncovers stories that are authentically local, yet also
globally relevant. Our independence enables us to report widely and
present a diversity of opinions.
Our Purpose
During a time when the world is changing ever more quickly, people
need reliable information to understand events and trends. We strive
to make a positive impact on people's lives by helping all people
understand the world and themselves, and to respect and appreciate
each other. We report stories and air opinions unavailable elsewhere.
A special strength of the Sunatimes.com is our coverage of
Somalia. Today the world is increasingly looking to Somalia, as the
world want to understand better what is happening there.
Our Values
A human being's fundamental right is the right to be heard. We uphold
and defend freedom of the press, freedom of speech, and freedom of
assembly. We are also strong advocates for all human rights, for all
people.
We seek to speak out for those who are oppressed, and cannot speak for
themselves. We speak to those in conflict, trying to show the common
humanity they share, and the compassion that will help them truly
respect the rights of others.
We work to tell the stories of daily life in our age, not on the basis
of what is sensational at the moment, but instead in terms of what
will be of lasting significance. We take the long view of humanity's
history and future.
Our History
The English edition of Sunatimes.com launched in 2010 on the
web, and we hope a newspaper soon. It meets a growing need for news

depth and meaning to people. In English, it serves a broad,
international readership.
The English website of www.sunatimes.com started publishing in

Somalia..

languages. We are optimistic about the future. Watch us grow!
