Somali teenager who learned English by listening to 大象传媒

Moalim is an 18 year old Somali who lives in Mogadishu. He has no formal education and during the day he tends to his family's herd of goats, listening to the radio. In the evening he surfs the internet catching up on the daily news. He's learned English by listening to 大象传媒 radio and dreams of becoming a journalist. We commissioned this report from him to mark the 60th anniversary of From our own Correspondent.
