I uploaded,downloaded,upgraded and even downgraded,but my heart is beating like a dial up My speech is slow like I am verbally constipated My thoughts are random like I have a Trojan virus but my brain is running like a supercomputer what could this be? Is my soul crashing like a hard drive? should I just scrap it like an old computer?

PART ONE Somaliland has recently elected a new government after years of delay, the anticipation has not only caused a political turmoil but it has also damaged Somaliland’s inevitability. The energy industry is not a sector that depends on international recognition it’s an industry that relies on getting the go-ahead from that right group. The option that has not been fully examined by any government that Somaliland ever had is a NOC (national oil company). Most countries have one even if they do not produce oil, what’s remarkable is the fact that Somaliland doesn’t even have an agency that handles this vital energy source. For many years the people of Somaliland have been constantly fed with news regarding foreign oil companies that will invest eminently, but the promises always ends in disappointment. The time is ripe for the new government of Somaliland to seriously consider creating an NOC that comes under the new Ministry for Minerals Water and Energy or at least begin with an agency that will examine and oversee the national energy resources. Foreign investors want to produce large quantities of oil and gas in order to get a good return. The Somaliland government’s first priority should be to develop Somaliland into a self sufficient energy producing country, to achieve this there is no need for hundreds of millions of dollars worth of investments, on the contrary the level of invest can be minimal in fact smaller than that of the proposed Berbera Cement Plant. Obstacles Even though most ordinary citizen believe that lack of foreign investment is the biggest obstacle to the development of energy sector in Somaliland, it’s actually the very difficult Geology that Somaliland is made of that keeps investors away. An example of this challenging geology is Somaliland’s most promising basin the Guban Basin which is situated in an inhospitable area of the Golis Range , places that have similar geology such as Oman requires a very high level of technology and therefore a substantial investment. The Norwegian Geophysical Company TGS-Nopec made a very important seismic mapping campaign in Somaliland (land and sea) this achievement cannot be understated due to the fact that they used new seismic mapping technology that would give clearer vision of what lies beneath the surface. Even though it’s not known who owns the rights of the data it’s nevertheless a milestone for Somaliland. An overhaul of the new blocks made by the former government and the numerous contradicting deals made with different companies is a must. Its obvious that the announced licensing round that would take place on the 19th of February 2009 was not warmly receipted by organisations whom the biding was suppose to concern, alongside the political turmoil and confusion that was raging back then, it was the lack of coherence between the old and new blocks that probably caused the biding fiasco. Many unrecognised countries receive foreign investment and Somaliland is no exception, in Somaliland’s case the investment is directed to the livestock and the telecommunications industries. Limited foreign investments to the energy industry have trickled down to projects such as the LPG plant operated by SOMGAS in Somaliland. The bottom line is that Somaliland needs to become more self sufficient and it has achieved this in many other areas, why not add energy self reliance to the long list?.

Somaliland is an area of Africa that not many would associate with historical art, but it should be. Just recently, Dr Sada Mire, an archaeologist from the University College London, discovered pre-historic rock art said to date as far back as 5,000 years and can be found at approximately 100 sites around the area. Some of the paintings illustrate scenes where animals have bands around their necks and bellies, a potential indication of early farming, and a painting of a man on horseback, possibly one of the first documentations of man on horseback. Another big attraction to Somaliland, not yet recognised as a nation, are the caves at Laas-Geel where there are paintings estimated to be between 5,000 to 11,000 years old. Haunted by spirits For centuries, these caves were only known to nomads who thought they were haunted by spirits and folklore warned people to stay away. The extraordinarily well preserved painted caves were eventually discovered in 2000 and the ‘paint’ is thought to be made from mineral sources and brewed into a paste that sticks to the rock. Most of the figures were of cows, showing a heavily pastoralist theme, though there were images of wild animals and dogs too, amongst the people. Somaliland archaeology has been largely protected from the fact that, whereas Somalia has been suffering from an ongoing civil war, the former has been relatively peaceful. Also, the area’s Department of Antiquities has taken measures to protect cultural heritage resources. With individuals, like home-grown Sada Mire, the prospects for this little country’s cultural impact could be huge.
