Press Release: On behalf of the Puntland Government, I want to assure the citizen of our esteemed State of Puntland that our territorial waters are under our full control. No company or foreign state has been authorised by the Puntland Government to Monitor, Patrol, Survey and Protect; the EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone); Our Natural Resources; Ports; Fishing activities and Trades among others in our territorial waters. The recent contract signed on the 30 Government of Somalia, Abdihakin Fiqi and the Dutch Company Atlantic Marine and Offshore Group (witnessed by President of the Federal Government of Somalia) that hands over the power of Somali Nationals to Foreign Company over our territorial waters, marine resources, Ports and Trade is unacceptable, inapplicable and unsuitable in Puntland State. This agreement clearly undermines the Regional Somali States (Kampala Process Members) efforts of maintaining Somali Sovereignty and control over its territorial waters. Puntland maintains its sovereignty and the development of our maritime security strategy and maritime resource protection, including the EEZ and Maritime Crimes (Illegal Fishing, Toxic Dumping and Smuggling), is documented in the Somali Maritime Resource and Security Strategy that was recently agreed upon by the Somali Regional States. We know that this are the cunning ways used to exploit our rich Somali marine resources and Puntland Government will not honour this agreement. Our developments should be aimed at building the capacity of native Somali Human Resource, focusing on the renaissance of our fishing Industry and coastal community development. The Sovereignty of the Somali people and our resources is not for sale. Puntland will continue to enforce authority in our waters and any acts of trespass will be regarded as criminal offense and a threat to our sovereignty, our security and our resources. Hon. Saeed Mohamed Rageh, Minister of Maritime Transport, Ports and Counter Piracy, Puntland State of Somalia http://horseedmedia.net/2013/08/03/somalia-puntland-rejects-the-coastal-agreement-between-the-federal-government-atlantic-marine-and-offshore-group-2/

100 km east of Burco is Caynabo district in western Sool region. I think the reason people are avoiding the Sool name is it has a negative connotation. So saying 100 km east of Burco just displays the area being explored is still under the sphere of eastern Burco group.

Good thread.

I think your mistaking me with sum1 else lol. I am not in the 'motherland'.

Watch TV not me. Argaaxiiso washay iga deeh...

Dowladda Iiraan oo Sheegtay in Maamul-Goboleedka Puntland uu sii daayay 78 badmaaxe oo u dhashay dalka Iiraan Jimco, August 02, 2013 (HOL) — Sarkaal sare oo ka tirsan dowladda Iiraan ayaa sheegay in maamul goboleedka Puntland uu sii daayay toddobaadkan 78-badmaaxe oo u dhashay dalkeeda, kuwaasoo maamulkan uu horay ugu xukumay xabsiyo kala duwan. Wasiir ku xigeenka arrimaha dibadda Iiraan, Xasan Qashqaafi ayaa sheegay in sii daynta badmaaxiintan ay ku timid kulammo dhexmaray wasaaradda arrimaha dibadda iyo saraakiil Soomaali ah. Badmaaxiintan ayaa waxay maxkamadda Boosaaso ku xukuntay xabsiyo kala duwan bishii May ee sannadkan, kaddib markii ay ciidamada Puntland soo qabteen. Maamulka Puntland ayaa ku eedeeyay Iiraaniyiintan inay xaalufin ku hayeen xeebaha Soomaaliya ayna wateen shan doomood, waxaana sidoo kale lala xukumay 12-qof oo Soomaali ah, kuwaasoo lagu eedeeyay inay caawinayeen badmaaxiitan. Xasan Qashqaafi ayaa sheegay in badmaaxiintan u dhashay dalka Iiraan ay ku labteen Talaadadii toddobaadkan, sidoo kalena doomihii ay wateen dib loogu celiyay Iiraan. Waa markii ugu horreysay oo maamulka Puntland ay sii daayaan badmaaxiin u dhashay dalka Turkiga oo ay horay u xukuntay, iyadoo ay weli xabsiyada Puntland ku jiraan badmaaxiin Soomaali iyo Yemeniyiin ah oo sannado kala duwan xukunno ay ugu ridday maxkamadda Boosaaso. Puntland oo ku taalla Waqooyi-bari Soomaaliya ayaa waxay lixdii sano ee ugu dambeysay la tacaalaysay afduubyo ay kooxaha burcadbadeedda ah ka geystaan xeebaha maamulkeeda, halkaasoo ay ka sameeyeen burcadbadeeddu saldhigyo waaweyn.

Young boys,elderly and Girls are raped in Puntland. A doctor from Puntland General hospital then addressed the issue of rape, telling the audience that it was a wide spread problem in Garowe, and that young girls, young boys as well as elderly women were victims. http://www.so.undp.org/index.php/Somalia-Stories/Puntland-judges-get-training-on-HIV/AIDS.html

^ Warlordess logic bay meesha la timi .Waxay rabta inay lacagta xado.

I think it is good if they alienate Somaliland businessmen, Somaliland businessmen will just stop investing in the south and the economy of the south will collapse again. The lady should consider it lucky that the likes of Dahabshiil are investing in her city when her government can't even pay the salaries of "Somalia soldiers".

That is good to hear walal. Visiting your ayeeyos folks is that a metaphor for you will visit Ceerigaabo and Daalo in Sanaag.

Safferz You in Hargeysa? Lucky you. Ramadan Kariim.

Democracy is not for everybody, unfortunately it is not for Puntland, so it is back to Far-Tag selections.

Professional security forces and Mogadishu in the same sentence is a oxymoron.

Naxar There is no active church in Hargeysa, there was an old church during British colonialism it was destroyed in the wars.

Get the party ready boys, Sundays will be an important day for the black Christians of Mogadishu.

I wouldn't be surprised if we soon see Ethiopian orthodox church as well in Mogadishu.
