The recently upgraded Hagreisa land database registry is actually part of a larger project by Somaliland Gov't and SolidBlock Inc. The project will be using state of art block-chain based database to register land titles and other key assets.

Awoowe the men holding back jahana will be iidoors. The men enjoying the highest level of what hereafter has to provide will be iidoors. We will be at the highest and at the lowest and will be leading at both ends. And will be content with it. Ninka Ibliis siyaasadda uu ka dhigtaa will be iidoors. Ninka Jibriil la soo tashaadana will be iidoors. But you folks, you will be looking for iidoors even inside hell.

The most liked tweet in the Middle East is the tweet from DPWorld regarding Berbera Port.

The Chinese have omitted mentioning the high level delegation that recently arrived in Hargeisa from their press release. Our friends from Taiwan have picked this up.

LOL Awoowe, I am sure you will not rest peacefully even in there. You will be wondering what the iidoors are up to and eventually will end up the floor next to them..

Where is @Old_Observer? Can you translate this?

It is the same here in Melbourne. There was a huge clan based fist-fight which broke out after disagreements on who will be in charge of a new masjid that was build by money donated by the Saudi Arabia. The fight was between Galmudug folks and Puntland folks. It ended up police being called by neighbouring businesses and the matter going to court. Later it was agreed that the leadership of the masjid be based something along clan lines.

Isagoo role kii xaaska Abiye matalayaana waa isku dayay.

Abiye Ahmed tried to bring his fiance to Hargeisa. Muse Biixi said f*ck off.

Somalia waa dalka kali ah ee madaxweynehoodi intuu Muqudisho ka duulo, Addis Abeba diyaarad la saarto deedna laga dejistay Nairobi sidii mistress/fiance Abiye Ahmed yahay.

Japan named a scholar who teaches in China as its new ambassador.

@galbeedi UAE is indeed making its marks but it is not the only one. Qatar is a known state sponsor of terror groups, so is Iran, Saudi Arabia and others. Obviously each country will advance its own interests. It is hardly anything new. That said, I don't you can blame the UAE for the collapse of Yemen and Libya. Yemen was a failed state for yonks, it just exploded after the Arab Spring. There was hardly a state in Yemen. The tribes and religious groups were dominant for the past 20 years since the War on Terror started. So your analysis is that of a man who has a chip on his shoulder vis-a-vis UAE. I do understand. As far as Berbera is concerned, that is a done deal. Waddani Party is/was not opposed. They just wanted to bargain harder and get more for Berbera Port. Which is what we expected from the main opposition party. That is not true. It was Garowe Administration (or people connected to Dr. Gaas to be specific) that approached DP World. This was when DP World's interest in Berbera was in the news around early 2016. DP World was not interested. But when Dr. Gaas bent-over backwards for a signature by almost giving all the ownership away, then that swayed them. They took their chances by delegating it to P&O Ports, the cheap offshoot subsidiary. Up to this day they cannot reveal the ownership structure. Some people say it is like 90% P&O Ports and 10% Garoowe.

The story behind this is that, late last year Puntland's business community approached Somaliland's Berbera Port authority to give them a tax-free Container handling service. The Port will handle the container upto Tukaraq area where Puntland Businesses will then take over. This caused a lot of brouhaha about the deal which had the potential to close down Bosaso Port or at least make a significant dent in its operations. This prompted Deni to go to Djibouti to propose for Djibouti to take this opportunity. The Djibouti gov't accepted it and went on to purchase a small vessel big enough to shuttle about one or two dozen containers between Djibouti and Bosaso Port. The new vessel recently made its madden trip from Djibouti to Bosaso Port and almost ran aground. Two weeks later another ship carrying cement from Oman arrived in Bosaso Port and it too ran aground. Bosaso Port is not able to support even a small vessel larger than a boat to dock on its berths. The Port has not seen any maintenance since it was built and has accumulated so much sand. So now this SOS call for Djibouti to help dig the port is one of desperation. With Djibouti already unable to recoup the cost of purchasing the new vessel, I am not too sure how much more it can offer. Time will tell. But it seems, in the meantime, Caws jilaal waa lama huraan, it is back to Berbera. This lead us to question, whatever happened to P&O Ports deal? Anyone got any updates.

The Amhara know that the TPLF is still a power which is why they will try to avoid confrontation in the short term. Eventhough the TPLF are edging towards starting the conflict itself and cannot wait until the Amhara consolidate all powers. But one thing is for certain Abiye Ahmed will not last long. Ethiopia is falling apart under his leadership.

Naagaha ayaa la yidha been ayaa lagu soo xero galiyaa. Ethiopia reer Koonfurka siday doonto ayay ufoorarisaa, waxayna ku seexisaa 'Somaliland ma aqoonsanin'. kkk Midnimo Somaliyeed Ethiopia ayaa noo ilaalinaysa. kkk

Apparently 'Ciidanka Madaxtooyadda' or the President's bodyguards is the only melitia that get their salary on monthly basis. The other so called clan melitias do not get any payments for months on end and even years. This is why 'Ciidanka Madaxtooyadda' is used for even menial operations. The work that should have been done by police.
