  1. Somaliland offers location. It offers stable, secure and democratic platform that anyone who wants to invest in can build on and grow. Yes, Somaliland is poor in terms of economics but it is rich in terms of resources and hunger for success. The UAE is not building Berbera Port or Berbera corridor just out of humanitarian gesture. They are investing in Somaliland as business and expect their ROI and profits just like any other business investment. Somaliland is not looking for donations or Aid. We are looking for partnerships in business investments that will generate profits for both sides. This includes investment in the Berbera Free Zone to build factories and other value added services. For example one of the first things that Taiwan is expecting to finance and invest in is exploiting the fisheries. This is not just catching fish and move it to Taiwan. Rather it is about catching the fish and processing it in Somaliland exporting the 'Made in Somaliland' Product to Taiwan. That way the maximum benefit in terms of job creation and taxation is taken into account. The possibilities are endless.
  2. El-Presidente Mudane Muse Biixi has proven again that he is no-nonsense man. And by that he has won a lot of admirers from around the world and specially in the crucial and important group in the Foreign Policy circles. Africans are watching and learning from Somaliland.

  4. The homecoming... Homecoming Somaliland: Asmahan | The 77 Percent | DW | 06.08.2020 WWW.DW.COM Asmahan only reconnected with her roots in Somaliland in her twenties. After moving to Hargeisa with her husband, she launched a line of skincare products for the local market, and hasn't looked back since.
  5. Maanta China Somaliland waa uga tilmaamantay/suntantay Qaaradda madaw ee Africa. Africa rag xiniinyo leh wali waa ku hadheen oo lacag aan dhaafsiisan doonin damiir kooda iyo principles kooda. That is the take away of the 7 day marathon talks between the Chinese and Somaliland, where Chinese brought their biggest diplomatic guns on special non-stop flight from Beijing to Hargeisa.
  6. Director General of Office of the President, Republic of Somaliland.
  7. For Some strange reason the Chinese love to build Airports. Just a quick research shows that the number of Airports they built in Africa is quiet a lot. Sierra Leone is the only standout which cancelled $300 million Chinese built Airport. Sierra Leone Cancels $300 Million Chinese Airport Deal, But Will Other African Nations Follow Suit? ATLANTABLACKSTAR.COM In the first example of an African nation canceling an already existing Chinese-funded project, the government of Sierra Leone has canceled a plan to
  8. So this is what has been agreed on between President MBC and the Chinese delegation who will be departing later today from Hargeisa. After failing to persuade President MBC to abandon Somaliland relations with Taiwan. The Chinese want instead to open an office in Hargeisa. President Muse Biihi has put a condition that the office should be similar in configuration to the office by the UK Foreign Office in Hargeisa etc. That means, the office will be directly coming under Beijing. Also additionally, once the new office opens they will be accepting Somaliland's passport as valid document. The Chinese have also promised to contribute to Somaliland's development. They mentioned that they will upgrade Hargeisa's Egal International Airport to become a world class Airport. This is perhaps the Chinese's way of trying to build some sort of goodwill and rapport with Somalilanders and perhaps in the future try again their 'one china' policy demands. In anycase, this is a huge win for Somaliland. Kudos to El-Presidente Muse Biixi Abdi.
  9. Like a real gangsta Gen. Gabre flashing it...
  10. But I do not think they will be able to fit. South Somalia's all competing factions were General Gabre lapdogs. His office was located inside Villa AMISom.
  11. The spokesperson for President of Taiwan has tweeted a cryptic tweet which implies that Taiwan will standby Somaliland as it faces down China's threats.
  12. In addition to the famous 'liinta', these people need to be hurt on the pocket too with a hefty fine or personal property confiscated and auctioning it out to recoup the fine. That will teach a lesson they won't forget.
  13. Taiwan is going to assist upgrading Somaliland coast guard capabilities.
  14. Geopolitical experts around the world and those interested in China/Taiwan issue and wider issue to contain China are super intrigued in Somaliland handling of China's aggressive diplomacy coupled with Aide package.
  15. There is a dedicated export only meat processing plant in Berbera funded by the UAE. I agree exporting mutton is more economically superior as both jobs and other by-products can be reused for other industries i.e. blood/gut can be used as fertiliser and skin can be processed as hide/leather.
  16. Deputy Chief of Taiwan's most respected think-tank on Geopolitical, Security Google Translator: The title reads: Scholar "Somaliland and Taiwan Development Relations: It is difficult for China to stop" Taiwan and East African Somaliland (Somaliland) will mutually establish official representative offices. Recently, it has been reported that Somaliland has accidentally recognized Taiwan and that China has started operations to prevent Somaliland from interacting with Taiwan. Dong Siqi, deputy chief executive of Taiwan’s think tank, said in an interview today (5th) that limited by China’s relations with Somalia and the conflict between Somalia and Somalia, it is not so much for China to use diplomatic recognition to stop Somalia. Easy; instead, Taiwan can enhance relations with Somaliland and bring a demonstration effect to neighboring countries. Taiwan and Somaliland announced on July 1 that they would mutually establish official representative offices. One month later, local media in Somaliland quoted an unnamed source to report that the country was preparing to recognize Taiwan and made it clear that Somaliland would be Swadini’s In addition, Africa is the second country to recognize Taiwan. However, after the news came out, other related reports pointed out that the Chinese government and its embassy in Somalia are trying to prevent the follow-up actions of Somalia. Dong Siqi, deputy chief executive of Taiwan’s think tank, said that the method that China can use is to recognize Somaliland as one of the possible ways, but this method is very difficult to achieve its goals. Dong Siqi said: "(Original) When Somalia establishes diplomatic relations with China, When Somaliland has a conflicting relationship with Somalia, and China did not recognize Somaliland, it is even more important for Somaliland to interact with Taiwan and obtain assistance from Taiwan, including agriculture and medical care. Advantageously, if China wants to win Somaliland at this time and prevent it from having some diplomatic relations with Taiwan, it will inevitably face relations with Somalia, so it is not so easy for China. 』 Regarding the establishment of representative offices in Taiwan and Sochi, Dong Siqi is facing the future development, because Taiwan’s farming groups or medical groups have provided substantial assistance in Africa. "Our reputation there is good," he said: "(Original) The improvement of our relations with Somalialand may also give other neighboring countries some demonstration effects, allowing them to directly recall or see Taiwan’s substantial assistance to African friendly or friendly countries. 』 Dong Siqi believes that this move to set up representative offices in each other is a way of "not rushing forward, not prescribing a position, and seeking mutual benefit." The relevant policies and actions are very correct. 索馬利蘭與我發展關係 學者:中國欲阻有難度 WWW.RTI.ORG.TW 台灣與東非國家索馬利蘭(Somaliland)將互設官方代表機構,近日卻傳出索馬利蘭有意外交承認台灣,以及中國開始運作以阻止索馬利蘭與台灣交往的消息。台灣智庫副執行長董思齊今天(5日)受訪表示,受限於中...
  17. The Chinese have offered Somaliland development package if Somaliland broke ranks with Taiwan. Obviously Somaliland rejected the manoeuvre. China is scared the new relationship between Somaliland and Taiwan will undo decades of isolating Taiwan from the world, specially in Africa. Somaliland is not budging.
