The people and leaders of Somaliland must have always known that international recognition might never happen. Did the elite have another plan in mind? This is particularly important today as things are unraveling politically, economically, and even socially. Where does Somaliland go from here?

This wrong idea, of secession, which benefited some people, is as dangerous as shabab ideology, how many people died? since they declared secession?
