cabsi cabsi ayaa ka jirta somaliland nolosheeda iyagu wax kale ma hayaan.

Its telling isn't it. They in the North have concocted a myth about the war. But conveniently leave out inconvenient truths. I would not listen to the Bushmen and their ramblings, I have read books written by Europeans that get closer to the truth.

Even though he is a bit of a xenophobe, Waraabe does tell the truth when it comes to Hargeisa politics.

They had a town hall meeting where they discussed the issue. Good for them. Exposing the issue is the first step.

Don't worry about these Somalilanders and their khat-inducing-hallucinations who think they are superman. Ignore them and they will flee back into the bush... naked.

Spot on. Elections are a game the elites of the west play on white voters. Trump will be back. Somaliland has been an experiment for various social programs for a while now, curious that you mention kids as they are debating in Somaliland child rape and kidnaping.

An openly gay man is not electable to the presidency in United States. Nothing to worry about.

Not necessarily. The Road to reconciliation has its setbacks, miss steps and conflicts, I am thinking Somaliland from 1991 to 1994. Galmudug is a new state with a complex set of problems, but its nothing that cannot be overcome . Peace has to be organic and not forced, in time a civil service will emerge, that wishes to move the state forward. Sheikh Shaakir is not a serious man, his sufi folks are more interested in dancing on TV than nuts and bots state building.

So much for fighting, good to see reconciliation.

Don't forget to thank the Somali republic state for teaching your backward bushmen how to write Somali. It must bring you great pain to have to write somali using Latin script lay down by Mohamed Siad Barre. Tell your mother she is welcome.

^^ waxaad tahay wiil aan qiimo lahayn. Somaliland does not even have Dog shit to inspect, better to have something to catalogue and report than nothing, bushman.

You don't need to important the "Chinese model" wholesale. Simply adjust it to your liking by following a data driven approach. Maybe Somali textiles are superior to others per unit price? Perhaps Somalis are good at assembling electronic components better than other Africans? But we won't know until we start collecting data and modelling long term projections. Everything is trial and error and not predetermined. But what does a Bushman know about data? Nothing.

One last post from me. The Bushman from Somaliland says that Somalis don't have the temperament for factory work and are too proud to stand and work (demeaning I know) for hours for a living wage. Utter bollocks! Here is a documentary on youtube proving that factories can work in Somalia as they once did in the 1970's. Somalis are hard working people and just need the right opportunity and capital to get going, but the bushman from the north is a bum so is not use to an enterprising mind....the British must have beaten it out of his people. lol

The bushmen of Somaliland feel once they have "studied" in London they have some secret knowledge that other Somalis don't have. Best to leave the freak to his own delusions and watch from afar as we are proven right.

Hence why I called him a house nigger. But not all Somalilanders are buying what the bushman is selling. Some of them have gone to Mogadishu to seek real employment.

China has already proved it. what is there to debate? But the brain dead Somalilander is still waiting for instruction from London and unable to envision a new future for themselves. The reasons for Somaliland's economic ineptitude is simple and the root of it goes back to colonial times when the British Empire destroyed Somalilands' best and brightest leaving their gene pool with gullible bushmen like Oodweyne.

^^ Behold folks what we have above me is the British slave nigger reasoning on display, enjoy your poverty you doqon.

The slave labour you speak off is a non issue. why is it a non issue? Because when you are poor and have nothing you must take what you can. China took cheap manufacturing jobs from western countries and then learnt how to do this more efficiently. Which in turn brought in more capital, by developing the human capital at the same time you get to hold on to the real wealth; the know how. BTW it was not slave labour, Chinese factory workers make more money than any Somalilander could hope for. So give me that "slave labour" any day. But your "elites" like to keep the masses ignorant and poor; to control them and not develop human capital. Somaliland does not produce Investment capital based on economic activity, this is supported by evidence and not emotional rhetoric. Somaliland is a donor recipient economy and most the people live on remittance from the diaspora, but keep listening to London and take their advice lol. In the real world you must demonstrate proof that your population can handle labour work; and technical manufacturing is beyond Somalilands capacity. Nobody invests blindly into an unknown economic reality, China has proven it.

Take that argument to your impoverish masses in Somaliland and see if they buy it.

^^ Clean elections do not mean an improvement in GDP over time. Look at China 600 million people lifted out of poverty in 20 years (stunning achievement) better than South Korea and Japan who are both U.S allies. Democracy did not do it. A clear scientific approach and a deep understanding of market forces turned China into a manufacturing power house and a holder of $2 trillion U.S treasury bills. The west is scared of China because they got rich without democracy and this may awaken African countries (Rwanda, Nigeria and Ghana) to the prospects that you don't need elections to get wealthy. Democracy does not equal prosperity, only an illiterate bushmen from English schools; who's ancestors were intellectually decapitated by the British Empire hold such unproductive understanding. Basic economics that anyone with a grounding in statistics and data driven approach can digest. But alas as i have said bushmen need not apply.

^^ I totally agree with that.

I like your thinking. Federal member states is the best solution for all Somalis. SFG is on the right track.

Most of them are khat addicts, but Alcohol seems to be in vogue at the moment.
