Doctor Kennedy dont you consider it sad that baraxlay to dhusomareeb 200 kilometers on the highway has 3 different administrations yet 1 clan? baraxlay=galmudug, cadaado=ximan iyo xeeb, dhusomareeb=ahlul sunnah and ethiopia. This is one clan family? It gets even more complicated as u go down to hiran with djibouti and ethiopia and all sorts of different mayors, so called administrations, and then shabellaha dhexe=SFG appointed mayors with amisom, and dont get me started on mogadishu. It's like the 700 kilometer stretch from south galkayo to mogadishu is all sorts of administrations and so called administration with 4 different countries present such as burundi, uganda, djibouti, ethiopia. Yet the other 750 kilometer stretch from north galkayo to bosaso is one administration where the presidents walks freely from one end to another, not one mountain, coast, or tuulo is not under his control and he has plans to even extend that walking tour to sool-sanaag next. I think facing the truth is better then living lies, the HAGS are messed up. U see hassan sheikh doing walking tours of maka al mukarama trying to mimic GAAS who walked 1/3 of somalia freely is just how stupid they can be. Let's be honest they're will never ever be one effective HAG administration because they will eat each other, the only viable admin they have is in mogadishu and it is viable because all somalis and the world is helping them. I can guarantee you without SAHAL, they will be lost and won't form any administration, mark my words on that.

All Somalis are fully aware of how states are settled. Lower Shabelle region wise D&M are the majority and reside in every district in great numbers. But the Merka area is solely for the the water boys and all somalis know this. If the water boys want the HAGS who came from galgadud to leave, that is their right. The HAGS from galgadud are guests and if a guest is told to leave he must go not fight. Somalis tend to think they can settle where-ever they want freely, which is kind of true but if the owners want you to leave, then that is also true because you are a guest after all. The HAGS must pack up and head back home, I don't see the water boys fighting genuine clans who settle the region, dadku way is yaqan, and there is no place for the galgaduud folks in shabelle. The comment galbeedi made about jubbayoinka is nonsense, the HAGS have no influence there, they are not even armed, you give them way to much credit. They can be removed at any time, if Jubaland govt wants. I think the water boys have realized their will not be peace in the region unless they follow the example of baidoa, kismayo and get rid of these 'non settler tribes' from galgaduud, once they are gone, the gates to peace has open and the locals who lived always together will prosper and grow. I suggest to galgadud boys you guys are mess, you haven't got one admin that is effective, your towns lack basic amneneties cuz your to busy focusing on other people land, half u guys are either taking advice from Puntland like ximan iyo xeeb, galmudug or the other half like dhusomareeb are on a land grab expedition where ethiopia protects you in your own town of dhusomareeb against YOURSELF. Who are we kidding the shabab folks running around are all HAGS so their basically protecting u from your own people. While u idiots were chasing land that isn't yours, galkayo-bosaso-garowe have been growing and developing each year while your still at level 0 and despised by all somalis and your towns are the most backward. I would hate to be born to your tribe, I mean what do u tell your kids? you send them to hamar, their dominated by hassan sheikh folks, u send them to galgadud its basically dead region, u send to galkayo which is your capital but your under PL. Must suck being from your tribe, your maniac behaviour looks like your simply dying and breathin your last.

Ciidan we have upgraded our soviet gear to newer weapons, we have an active airforce with armed helicopters and war planes. We have F350 mine detector armoured vehicles. All our technicals are all new also. The point I was making was we have the old soviet gear in abudance and also newer weaponry plus extended capabilities in the sky. Stop being a xasid, Puntland is a powerful state and you know it. You will deal with 1000 technicals, 200 of which are bullet proof. Heavy armoured trucks, BMS, Tanks as our ground force supported by a capable airforce with armed helicopters and warplanes which is guided from the command center in QAW with satellite guiding systems. On top of that we got an effective coast guard to invade u thru Berbera, while deploying ground forces into burco and striking hargeisa from the sky with our airforce. You have to admit we got the best armed forces in the Nation? Somaliland only has what we have as far as old soviet gear and technicals and a few BMS but it lacks in all the other aspects like bullet proof technicals, the airforce, the F350 mining vehicles, etc. You are in denial if your denying the power of puntland, your just being argumentative I think

<cite> @CidanSultan said:</cite> Osman.... We await your arrival at the border bring your Stone Age tools with you as well... All talk and no ba))s.

I am not sure what Siilfaanayo or Futo Bixi can really do? their dealing with a massive state with ground, sea, and air capabilities. For example PL attacking CiidanSultan will bring a 20 tank brigade division, a thousand technicals, 200 of which are bulletproof, heavy armoured trucks, And BM Strikes supported via air strikes with command satellite systems at QAW for accuracy is all Ciidan sultan will get from a confrontation with the mighty state of Puntland. He must realize he simply doesn't enjoy the capacity these boys enjoys. They have more of siyads gear then you do, and they have newer weaponry on top of their existing stockpile and even expanded capabilities such as a coast guard and an effective airforce. Wake up Ciidansultan before you indeed do see a state who are all QAAB CIIDAN

Your definitely not a Puntlander, I dont see your ID

Ciidan Puntland is comin for you, Qaab Ciiidan Thats just godad and siinay. Forget about the tanks in bursalax, the airport, xero darawish and so many more in mudug. These boys are packing around 20 operational tanks, airforce, f350 mining vehicles so u cant lay down any IEDS, they got heavy trucks and BMS....The only way to address you ciidan is to address with qaab ciidan

Malistar claiming Qatar city of Barsa building is getting pathetic. Check the same image her in Qatar http://www.redcointl.com/photo.php?prod=2&start=2&p_f=0 Everyone knows there is a silent rule in Mogadishu, development doesn't go beyond renders.

By the way those satellite imagery were 2012, Bosaso is going to be double that in 7 year size according to UNHABITAT, thats basically hitting the mountains. Hargeisa doesnt look its grown much at all either. Hargeisa just looks unevenly spread out, if you place it on the road in the same angle as bosaso it falls short to fill all the space Bosaso has, it's just urban sprawl in hargeisa, its like if u divided hargeisa up into bits and spread it out around. I think Bosaso is up there today with mogadishu

Is it me or has Bosaso grown? It's easily now as large as Mogadishu Garowe to has Grown alot also Mind you all the zooms are set at the same rate also. Galkayo looked massive too but I couldn't get a good angle on it close to Hargeisa size now. This is buroa, it looks same size as Garowe now. Same zoom too

My prognosis has always been that Africa and Asia are backwards today because they applying a foreign system be it communism, democracy, dictatorship or whatever it is which is alien to their way of life and culture. A political system must be forged locally, it must be from the locals culture because then it will gain acceptance and the people confidence. Notice how Africans and Asians tend to always hate their govt, it's usually high in corruption, etc it's because people simply find this system alien to them and they should because it isn't theirs, it's someone else from europe. It is a tactic the europeans used knowing that africans would never recover because the systems they put in place, they knew it would take centuries before anyone would finally accept it and make it apart of their culture and in the mean-time europe can keep growing. The europeans know this because it took them a long damn time themselves starting from the dark ages till it fully developed was around 500 years. It will take longer for Africans and Asians. It's a set way to ensure they always fail because their trying to work themselves into the box the white-man drew even though that box has got nothing to do with their local culture. That can explain why alot of african and asian empires used to be huge back in the day because there was no importing of this foreign political systems, the systems were developed locally from the people being governed culture. I know alot of people say hey democracy works for europe and america and they successful, therefore it will work for everyone, that is where they just unwise. They don't know how long it took europe to even get to that stage and there is no guarantees we will even get to that stage and if we do it will take alot longer because it simply isn't our system. As for Somalia their issue is quite simple, their is no point applying foreign systems like communism, democracy, etc, because tribe is 1000 year old institution, it is embedded into the culture, those foreign political systems aren't embedded at all and to get it to embedd will take a long long long time and that's if it even works. We saw the start of democracy and 60s and how it turned into clan parties and that was mainly because the uniting factor 'colonialists' left, their was simply nothing there to unite us anymore and hence we saw the seat as a way to rule and if another clan was on there that mean we were being ruled. This was a fundamental issue because remember these clans just came out of autonomous loose end type of federal structure where each clan ruled himself, there was never a single ruler in somalia before colonialists, so they all enjoyed their autonomy. Somalis weren't doing as bad as you may think back then, they were even giving foreign aid to gulf states. This autonomous nature was taken away by colonialists and they brought their own political system 'centralism'. This is where it went haywire, the autonomous nature of the clans was gone, so that means their survival was at stake now and to survive meant that power seat that was put in 1 place. They started forming and putting on their clan masks under multiparties which were simply clan parties and then start putting on new masks in the form of rebel groups and this just continued untill the state totally collapsed. Now we have other other masks like shabab, secession, etc, we still haven't learned that masks won't solve our problems, what will solve our problem is diagnosing the root cause of why we are wearing these masks and you will see it goes back to that powerful institution 1000 years old TRIBE. The only answer that can really replicate how we lived prior to colonialization is federalism, it ensures clan can survive and have their self rule like they always did but they will always cooperate with one and another on things that are shared between which is obviously the nation. I call it a unity in cooperation rather then say unity in domination of centralism. This is possible because if you look deeply back in our roots before colonialism, you will see that even though clans were autonomous they did work together when things of mutual interests arose, this mutual interest could be somalia or the federal govt while our clan survival or self rule can be replicated in autonomous states. This will now ensure clans dont need to fight since their self rule is still there plus they can cooperate on things of mutual interest the federal govt. I don't support federalism merely because Puntland does, if I saw it is unrealistic, I wouldn't support it at all. But I see it is realistic because if somalia wasn't federal that would means clan lose the survival and will feel their being ruled by another clan which will only lead to the same in the past of constantly fighting for the seat. Once that survival factor is addressed clans won't busy fighting for it or seeking it, they will focus on other things like development, cooperation on mutual interests, etc. So as far as Somalia is concerned I think a federal structure is the best solution when u look at our history, culture, behaviours and the way we like to operate which is self rule at a clan level while cooperation at a level where things are mutually shared between a clan ie; the nation. But the political system we will use I think right now is simple masks, I am not a big fan of democracy, communism or anything foreign, we tried that in the 1960s and it didn't work. Sure we had political parties were clans cooperated but as soon as clans felt jepordized they would leave and form their own party hence providing that somalis used it also as a mask for clan agenda. Why do we need masks for is the question I always ask myself, why can't we embrace how god created us and our way of life, why cant we be like dubai and use local systems and forget the nonsense that comes from europe or america because it will take centuries to adapt to which is exactly what they want so we continue being in a state of perpertual failure for a couple of centuriIes untill their system becomes embedded in our culture because thats only when a political system can succeed. For example majority rules is not somali culture, they believe more in consensual style of culture, so democracy is against one of the basic foundations of our culture which is to talk, comprise, and share equally not based on whos got the most votes but in a balanced clan way that shows all clans count and have a say. I am big fan of Puntland system it is local system based on clans, however I am not a fan of how they still use districts, we don't need to use districts, we need to use clans and do it in a way where all clans are equal not more not less and have agreed way on how to handle deadlocks. I think Puntland system is perfect but it needs fine tuning so one clan is more then other so to speak and that really needs to go back to traditional culture. I think if we rule our ppl on what they know best which is tribe this will satisfy them because that is what they respect not 'masks' like shabab, multi parties, etc. They wear the masks for clan agendas and don't want to seen as tribal but people are not blind or stupid, we are in deep denial of our own culture, so its going to be hard for us to create a system around our culture that our people are confident in and trust and believe in and will protect not these parties where if a clan loses something they will destroy a party, a state, etc. As somalis we need to really look at ourselves honestly and learn to appreciate our culture, the whiteman is succesful not because he copied others but used his own systems that his own people accepted and this came down to how their culture was and what people trusted and had confidence in. Once they got that, they protect their nation because it is there and they love it and cherish it and export to others knowing full well its not for them but to keep them bog down trying to fit into it for centuries while they keep moving forward. Smart people the europeans, it's like us exporting our old political systems like xeer or xiis and saying 'here u go europe' you make ur people work with that, can u imagine how long it will take, the lack of confidence the ppl would have in the system would mean they would abuse it, and they would be in a constant state of trying to fit into a box we carved out for them. I think as somalis we need to assess our culture and see what somalis respect, devise plans to put that into our system. We know somalis love clan, so make clan top priority on how the govt runs, we know somalis love islam, make sure islam is there. We need to go into our culture deep and see what it is the people respect and giving it to them and saying 'happy' now you dont need to fight the govt, learn it, it is your own system that u understand like your fathers did and I bet you they will progress in seconds and love their country and govt because they know its tailor made for them BY THEM and for THEM

Mahiigan what is worse did u see that HAG guy at hotel plaza in mogadishu bragging about how he has hotel, how many hotels do PL/SL have and businesses and properties still occupied in mogadishu. Have u ever seen one of their businessmen get on public tv and say 'we have hotels'? dadkan xeer malaha, odayaal malaha, xitaa base malaha, malin walbo macalin dugsi iyo ngo president bay somalida la horyimadayan to be president, indhacade general, maybe next dameer donkey rider as minister of technology and science. Their pool is just horrendous, forget one or two good ones that were halalized with SYL and Siyad, what do you think 91 generation in 50 years will produce when they start roaming around in politics? what can u recruit from there except moryans, dameer donkey riders, and gaari gacan folks. Lets talk facts for once in our lives, dadkan dhibaato ba hayso, nin dhan hadu tv hor imanayo ku faanayo hotel baan haysta, what does this tell u. Notice how Puntland always says shidaalka somali ba leh or airportka bosaso marku dhamaado somali ba leh, ninkas hamar joggo bal eeg adigu wuxu oranayo. Dadkan af kale malaha except violence, I am telling u the truth, dad masaakin bay dilayan this is not normal. They killed two elderly somaliland men in their 90s all because they view him as close to bimaals. They did the same thing sxb in 91. I wish sometimes PL would've done aarsi on them in galkayo and never allowed them to return and looted their properties. They dont even fight with soldiers sxb, when they soldiers calacaalka ka soo yeerayso waad aragtay, waxay dilan wa maskinta shacabka iyo dadka aan waxba galabsan, they cant fight soldier if they see them sxb, they scared as hell.

malistar the fact of the matter is whether u want to accept it or not, the issue of ssc is among ssc, u can try to make SL appear all u want but thats simply not the reality on the ground, u know it, i know it, the world knows it. This not a bimaal vs bimaal here in marka, this is a faraway ppl from a faraway land who are harassing the locals, looting, killing. Can u imagine the HAGS doing the same thing in Hargeisa, their is alot of them there idps and migrants and businessmen, imagine they started fighting the snm we want the homes, businesses,etc there and launching attacks with government assistance. Is that normal to you? it isnt normal, no clan does this and thats the facts of the matter. It is a unique trait from galgaduud which somalis are shocked at. The bimaal have all the right to say this is our land if u want to reside here u play by our rules, not fight us in our homes, farms, etc. This is standard custom across all somali cities that ppl can migrate if they so wish but they must PLAY by the local rules, this is what the HAGS of galgadud fail to do always.

malistar, we know who is in las anod, it is the same tribe, it aint snm. There isnt a genocide happening there, ppl homes aint being looted in broad daylight. The ppl of shabelle are united and fighting a moryan on a land grab who refuses to live peacefully as a resident in the region but rather wants to fight the locals. Have u ever seen IDPS do such things in the north, of course not. They are crazy nutts galgaduud folks. The issue of SSC is political sxb, u can spin it all u want but the reality of the matter is when u go to las anod u wont see an SNM in sight, it is locals against locals due to subclan issues among themselves, these guys if united is obvious what happened in buhodle just one sub sub clan can handle the SNM that is reality, let alone all of them together,, hargeisa wud be in danger, forget if PL joins it would be annihilation of SNM like they never saw. The only thing PL can do is hold a conference to reconcile the clans there and bring about a political solution among themselves. Comparing it to Marka is silly. We aint killing our own ppl, end of story. Politics change, death doesnt. U want us to minimize our population so we kill each other like u did in 88 and hence ur minimized today as far as numbers and that will never change for u, we are smarter then u bro. SSDF never risked its ppl like you did. We know politics can change but death doesnt and will have profound impact on your clan in the future, ask the eyl folks about that, they will tell u.

It is strange the govt is actually promoting a war against it's own residents, doesn't that mean that this isn't their government and is just another faction of the nation. These HAGS suprise me alot, they expect to rule the nation but at the time don't want to carry the responsibilities that comes with leadership, they still want to behave tribal. I support the just war here, these losers from galgaduud have no right to be fighting people in their own land, if u want to stay there as residents and abide by the local rules, thats one thing but to say I'll fight someone in his own town is ridiculous and will end like the way all people who tried that nonsense, defeat. I never see shabelle folks or any IDPS in the north ever picking up guns and say I am going to occupy your house and if you say anything about it, I'll fight you. Imagine the IDPS in the north all of sudden arming themselves in galkayo,hargeisa,bosaso,etc and started fighting the locals over their homes. This is basically what is happening in merca and the govt is sending re-enforcement clan militias with government attire to make this happen. You can't wear govt attire and behave tribally, if u want to behave tribally you have no place to be ruling a nation that is full of different tribes, it simply won't work in the long-term. This will just continue leading us into a cycle of every tribe doing the same thing as the previous leader whenever he gets power and somalia will never move forward. The best thing for Hassan sheikh right now is to resign, his sending the nation back to 91. He did the same thing in jubbaland, marka, kilometer 50, the man has lost all somali people confidence and not to mention the International community with all the negative reports coming out of the cia, un monitoring group, etc. It's sometimes best to step down and not to make the situation any worse rather then stay and risk the little somalia has gained. We need to do large diaspora protests demanding that Hassan must go. Hassan must go. Hassan must go.

Mahiigan look at hassan sheikh around the 1:29 mark and how he looks at farole with disgust when he said 'we invited him to learn puntland and its president' he gave the most disgusting look when he heard 'president'. Just watch his facial expression the whole time, wallahi it is hilarious, at one time he was pressing his collar showing unease and uncomfortable looooool. Even at the beginning of farole speech you see how his face is just 'caro filled' like real 'hate'.

Warancade can talk all he wants, the world knows secession is a mask for a clan-agenda and they are simply not interested in clan agendas but solutions for all somalis. They care about the big picture for all clans not 1 clan, thats why their politics is failing. Wearing masks like secession won't fix the root-cause why you even wore the mask in the first place and can lead to more masks in the future untill that is discussed. Wax kale waa uu dhimanan kara marku farole yiri beentisa ma ahayn, more masks our possible in the future alot scarier then the ones we see today untill we address what is forcing somalis to wear these constant masks. The honest fact of the matter is TRIBE that is why their wearing constant masks such as shabab, secession, and other mere symptoms. The world won't discuss the symptoms or masks but wants to know the root cause and if a solution can be provided for the root-cause, hence federalism is the only solution. Guaranteeing autonomy for the major tribes while ensuring unity thru cooperation as opposed to unity in domination, hence why the world sees hope now for somalia since they saw the root causes have been addressed and embassies are opening up. Who leads in a future Somalia will be decided thru a ballot box not by tribe. If the SL secure the presidency thru the wish of the ppl of Somalia, noone will refuse them but to suggest 2 cities hargeisa to burco 200 kilometer in distance will share somalia 50/50 in the future or you will threaten to separate adeer xal ma noqonayso taas isolationkasi baad iskaga jiraysa iyo somalia inteeda kale wa hormaraya. Xaaji dont continue repeating same things always it wont help you or your people and prolong the isolation. Isolation will only hurt u more then benefit, your ppl will move to mogadishu seeking jobs in a booming mogadishu of the future hence your areas losing revenues in trade, taxes,etc. U will end up crumbling on your own without even one bullet being fired. The world won't support u if you refuse the ballot box on who can lead somalia because that will mean your against the will of the people.

Noone is disappointed Turkey is involved in Somalia, people are questioning what's behind that involvement only. See that's how they will twist it if anyone says a word about Turkey involvement in Somalia, so it's wise international and regional players keep their mouth shut in public but silently bring anti turkey countries to counter-balance this development initiative Turkey is seeking only for mogadishu which is run by an al-islah based govt which is a muslim brotherhood affiliate. I urge international/regional players don't say a word about Turkey in public because they have alot of popular local support and will only make us look like the 'evil' ones like the ambassador is doing whenever questioned about his involvement in Somalia. Believe me there is no-way we going to beat turkey in their new game by bad-mouthing them because that will make them look more like saviours and us the bad guys. Puntland should shift it's development partners to the gulf area and convince those states of Turkey muslim brotherhood agenda in Somalia is no different to what they did in egypt when mohamed morsi was running for president. We should get gulf investors coming into Puntland and investing infrastructure,hospitals, businesses to counterbalance it and make sure the MB never have the upper-hand in negiotations on federalism.

I want anyone in SOL to honestly say that hassan sheikh isn't cuqdad filled? how else can you guys explain his facial expressions when in Puntland with farole? He looks totally uncomfortable and at one stage when farole said 'Puntland is 15 year old state" he starts smirking with maseer and shock that he hates hearing such things.

I have always welcomed Turkey involvement in Somalia, since the great famine that struck the nation in 2011 till now they have been heavily engaged in the country. Sure this looks good for Turkey international profile and playing a international role but could there be something murky here we don't see? I have always wondered why doesn't Turkey invest in other regions, why only mogadishu? I mean sure it can be argued Mogadishu suffered the greatest part of the war and need the development urgently but other areas of the south wasn't exactly a picnic either and Turkey hasn't done anything to assist there. I use to give Turkey the benefit of the doubt thinking they will deal with mogadishu in the mean-time and gradually hit the regions but this hasn't ever come. We need to start exploring why this hasn't come and what is buried in mogadishu to keep the turks solely there. Turkey has come to PL since 2012 and given mere 'pledges' of assistance and repeated that cycle every 6 months or so as if to play to people concerns of turkey not actively working in the regions. They now have opened an office in Bosaso and might do the same thing for another 2 years and simply open up offices across Puntland to buy themselves time on not doing anything development wise in the region. They are also now sending business delegation and will continue the 'pledge' route with Puntland to ease concerns and rinse and repeat that cycle for a few years untill people get tired of it. Why is it doing this? do they actually think people are stupid or blind. The only answer I have for Turkey not helping the regions and only mogadishu is because of erdogan who is a known muslim brotherhood sympathiser, he did the same thing in egypt streghtening the muslim brotherhood there 'openly', what makes you think he isn't doing that in Somalia? Who are the muslim brotherhood in Somalia, well it's dam-jadiid which is a wing of al-islah and al-islah is known party among the muslim brotherhood. What are muslim brotherhood idealogy? their idealogy is 1 strong central state just like egypt where it was founded. My theory is that Turkey is enpowering the dam jadid faction zone 'mogadishu' with development as a tool to bring regions into a weaker position when negiotating federalism and make it as centralised as possible. Development is a political tool, if a govt is lacking in providing development to it's residents sooner or later anyone can come along and form a rebel group, terrorist group, or whatever opposition they want in that territory due to local grievances. So this one sided development by turkey to mogadishu is known as 'soft politics' give the candy to your political allies too woo the other political factions to his position. I mean does it make sense 5 new hospitals have been done for mogadishu yet not 1 hospital for baidoa or kismayo? infact recently baidoa hospital ran out of medical supplies and had to fly patients to mogadishu, this should've of raised alarm bells to federalists. This is taking everything back into the center and handicapping the regions. My suggestions to the regions to counter this development offensive now being used by centralists is seek your own development partners from countries who are supportive of your government policies such as federalism and moreso seek countries that are anti turkey like the gulf states for investment. I would think dubai-kuwait-saudi-bahrain and those sorts of countries should be where the regions should be looking to establish strong ties to counter this turkish development offensive towards mogadishu. This development offensive is no different to politicians seeking foreign political support, ironically the HAG always are known to seek political support from islamist based countries who have a 1 govt for somalia agenda on their mind only. I don't think it's wise the regions yell about this issue publically about turkey one sided development to mogadishu because it will only make us look 'tribal' in-front of the public who are really supportive of Turkey right now, but we should silently shift our development partners to the gulf state and show the centralist they are not winning the battle in this front either without disturbing the public or showing them any ill-will is coming from the regions. What Gaas is doing is crazy naming more islamists in the cabinet with muslim brotherhood ties thinking this will do the trick but it won't, it will just mean you will need to negiotate the type of federalism you want for that nation to be center based and it is seriously bad time to be playing that game when the constitution is being finalized. I am not prepared to sacrifice loose type of federalism to center based on for turkey development, there are other partners that can be sought and we can continue on promoting our federal platform for the nation.

Mahiigan it's not about owning the the naval ship, anyone can get foreign funding for those sort of projects, the issue is about prestige and showing that your treated like a government by foreign countries. It's a profile boost as far as I am concerned. What I don't understand is why hassan sheikh is copying gaas for, these hutu mentality suprises me. They sit on the capital just imagine if we were sitting in the capital, I wouldn't be imitating regional govts at all. The HUTUS are suprising to say the least but have indirectly regionalized themselves in the process kkkk

The strange thing about SL govt is, it doesn't do govt do which is 'serve its ppl' it sure serves itself with ministry buildings, imagine how many wells they could've of done with that to lift up lifting standards or water projects. The key area govts are measured in is their people living standards not how well they serve themselves. They really need to put an end to that and start serving the people.

Somaliland has definitely moved forward especially on the ministry building side and diaspora investment, there is no question mark there. As for GOVT services to the average person on the street, they are no better then mogadishu govt. I don't see much Silanyo does for the everyday somalilander. But I do welcome these ministries, I think this one is way to big, I like the others one though, they are more suitable.
