Nairobi (Caasimada Online) – Siyaasiga Faarax Macallin ayaa cabiray aragtidiisa ku aadan heshiiskii ay Soomaaliya iyo Ethiopia ku galeen Muqdisho sabtidii iyo haddii madaxweyne Farmaajo uu dalkiisa qiyaamay. Faarax Macallin ayaa qoraal uu soo dhigay bartiisa facebook ku sheegay in marnaba uusan shaki uga jirin in Farmaajo yahay nin waddani ah oo dalkiisa jecel, balse ay suurto-gal tahay inuu galay qaladaad siyaasadeed. My assessment of Farmaajo is that the guy might be naive in certain aspects of statecraft but certainly not corrupt & definitely patriotic. In statecraft trust no country including neighbours. Look at Canada &USA,UK&France,US &Mexico. Mr. President be wary of Ethiopia or perish. — Farah Maalim (@FarahMaalimM) June 19, 2018 “Qiimeynteyda Farmaajo waxa tahay ninka waxaa macquul ah inuusan haysan khibrad ku filan marka ay noqoto maamulka dowladeed, hase yeeshee xaqiiqdii maaha nin musuq-maasuq, dhab ahaantiina waa waddani sax ah” ayuu yiri Faarax Macallin. “Marka ay noqoto maamulka dowladeed, dalna ha aamin xitaa kuwa deriska ah. Waxaad eegtaa Mareykanka iyo Canada, UK iyo France, Mareykanka iyo Mexico. Madaxweyne iska jir Ethiopia” Hadalka Faarax Macallin ayaa imanaya ayada oo mucaaradka dowladda ay madaxweynaha ku eedeeyeen inuu dekadaha dalka siiyey Ethiopia, islamarkaana ogolaaday in dalka Soomaaliya laguna daro Ethiopia, taasi oo madaxweynaha uu wax kama jiraan ku sheegay kuna qoslay.

Muqdisho (Caasimada Online) – Qaar kamid ah Xildhibaanada baarlamaanka Somalia ayaa ka digay in qaab khaldan loo dhigo Siyaasada ay dowlada Somalia ku hormarineyso Heshiisyada ay la galeyso dowladaha saaxiibada la’ ah Somalia. Xildhibaanada oo kulamo ku yeeshay magaalada Muqdisho ayaa sheegay in dowlada Somalia ay awood u leedahay in heshiis ay la gasho dowlada Ethiopia iyo dowladaha kale. Xildhibaanadan waxa ay sheegen in dowladu aysan gali karin Heshiis aan maslaxad ugu jirin dalka, sidaa aawgeed mas’uuliyada dalka looga danbeeyo madaxda Qaranka. Xildhibaanada ka digaya in aan la siyaasadeen heshiiskaas waxaa ka mid ah Xildhibaan Maxamed Cumar Dalxa oo sheegay inay jiraan Xildhibaano ka macaasha arbushaada dalka. Dalxa waxa uu sheegay in Heshiiskaasi uu ahaa mid wakhtigiisa dhacay, maadaama ay Somalia xiligaan hiigsaneyso horumar. ‘’Waa ayaan darro in Xildhibaano matalaaya shacabka ay ka shaqeeyan arbushaad dalka, adeer cida gashay heshiiska waa kuwa aad shalay soo doorateen waana inaad uga danbeysaan talada dalka’’ ‘’Dowladu ma aysan la dhuuman Heshiiska ay la gashay Ethiopia, goob cad ayey ku gashay waxa ayna baahisay warmurtiyeedka heshiiska, marka maaha in loo taagnaado iska hadal’’ Xildhibaanka oo ka qeyb galayey dood ayaa sheegay in cid kasto oo dalka Soomaaliya ka sameyneysa maalgashi dan ugu jirto dadka Soomaaliyeed ay soo dhaweyneyso Dowlada Somalia. Sidoo kale, Xildhibaan Dalxa ayaa ku baaqay inaan dhibaato iyo burbur bilow ah loo horseedin dalka oo uu sheegay in xiligaan uusan u wanaagsaneyn khilaaf iyo dhaliil. Haddalka Xildhibaanka ayaa kusoo beegmaaya iyadoo maalmihii la soo dhaafay ay taagneed dhaliilo ku aadan heshiiskii 16-kii Bishaan ay Muqdisho ku kala saxiixdeen dowladaha Soomaaliya iyo Ethiopia.

Hargeysa (Caasimada Online) – Somaliland ayaa qaadacday inay ka qayb gasho shir la filayay inuu bishan 26 June-28 ka furmo magaalada Brussless ee wadanka Beljamka, kaas oo ku saabsan Soomaalida oo loogu qoondaynayay dhaqaale ay deeq bixiyayaashu ku yabooheen. Warar aan helnay ayaa sheegay in Somaliland lagu soo martiqaaday shirkaas, laakiin ay dawladda Somaliland go’aansatay inaanay ka qayb gelin shirkaas. Shirka ayaa la sheegay inuu dib u dhac ku yimid, waxaana la qorsheeyay inuu qabsoomo 16 Julay-17. Lama hayo faahfaahin ku saabsan sababta ay xukuumadda Somaliland u qaadacday ka qayb galka shirkaas. Laakiin xukuumadii hore ee Madaxweyne Siilaanyo ayaa sidan oo kale diiday inay ka qayb gasho shir noocan oo kale ahaa oo dhaqaale loogu ururinayay Soomaalida oo sannadkii 2014 lagu qabtay dalka Denmark. Sidoo kale shir 2013 ka dhacay dalka Beljamka oo isna dhaqaale ururin ahaa ayay xukuumadii Siilaanyo isagana diiday inay ka qayb gasho. Waxaanu go’aankan xukuumadda Somaliland ee xiligani noqonayaa markii saddexaad ee ay Somaliland diido inay shirkaas ka qayb gasho. Inkastoo aanay xukuumadda Madaxweyne Biixi weli ka hadal shirkaas iyo wararkiisa toona, haddana xukuumadii Madaxweyne Siilaanyo waxay diidmadeeda shirarkaas hore ku salaysay ka dib markii ay dawladii Soomaaliya ee Xasan Sheekh shirkaas ku soo martiqaaday. Laakiin go’aanka xukuumadda xilligan ayaa ku soo beegmaya iyadoo bishan ay dawladda Farmaajo dalalka deeq bixiyayaasha ah ku gacan saydhay in Somaliland loo cusboonaysiiyo hab-macaamilka gaarka ah ee loo dejiyay in la soo mariyo mucaawinooyinka Somaliland.

Markii ay burburtay dawladdii dhexe ee militerigu hoggaaminayeen ee Soomaaliya bishii koowaad ee sanadkii 1991-dii, Soomaalilaand ayaa bishii shanaad ee isla sanadkaas waxa ay ku dhawaaqday iney ka go’day Soomaaliya. Soomaalilaand waxa ay gooni isu taaggeeda sabab uga dhigtay, in aysan ku faa’iidin midowgii 1960-kii ee labadii gobol ee Ingiriiska iyo Talyaanigu kala gumeysanayeen, waxa aan iyana meesha ka marneyn, caro dadka halkaas deggan ay ka qaadeen dagaalladii dawladdii kacaanka ciidankeedu la galeen ciidamadii jabhaddii SNM iyo wixii burbur, dhimasho iyo barakac ahaa ee arrinkaas ka dhashay, gaar ahaan, magaalooyinka Hargeysa iyo Burco. Dhinaca koofurta Soomaaliya, dawladihii soo maray wixii ka dambeeyey burburkii qaranka, ma aysan oggolaan in Soomaalilaand ay ka go’do dalka intiisa kale, isla markaas na si dhab ah labada dhinac ugama aysan wada hadlin in Soomaalilaand ay noqoto dal gaar u taagan oo ka madax banaan Soomaaliya inteeda kale. Bishii sideeddaad ee sanadkii 1998-ddii ayaa waxa magaalada Garoowe lagu dhisay maamulka Buntlaand, iyadoo isimada iyo waxgaradka Sool, Sanaag Bari iyo Buuhoodle ay ka mid ahaayeen dadkii wax ka dhisay maamulka Buntlaand, deegaannadaas oo Soomaalilaand dhinaceeda ay ku doodeysay iney ka mid yihiin dhulka ay ka goyneyso Soomaaliya inteeda kale. Wixii intaas ka dambeeyey labada dhinac (Soomaalilaand iyo Buntlaand) ayaa gobolladaas ku muransanaa, marar aan yarenna waxaa ka dhacay dagaallo dad badan ay ku dhinteen, kuwaas oo salka ku hayey ku-muransanaanta gobollada Sool, Sanaag Bari iyo Buuhoodle. Tan iyo intii ay soo laba kacleysey xiisaddii ugu dambeysay ee u dhexeysa Soomaalilaand iyo Buntlaand ee gacan ku haynta gobolka Sool, waxa ay Soomaalilaand soo celcelineysay in dhulka lagu dagaalamayo uu yahay dhul Soomaalilaand ay ku heshay xariiqimihii gumeystihii reer Yurub ku qeybiyeen qaaradda afrika, gaar ahaan dhulka Soomaalidu ka degto geeska afrikada bari. Taariikh Kooban Markii gumeystihii reer Yurub ay qeybsadeen dalalkii afrikaanka ahaa, Soomaalida dhulkii ay degganeyd waxaa loo qeybiyey shan qeybood. Saddex ka mid ah shantaas qeybood waxaa haystay Ingiriiska, waxa uuna laba ka mid ah ku daray dalalka Itoobiya iyo Kiinya. Qeybtii saddexaad waxa ay ahayd Soomaalilaand oo Ingiriisku uu madax banaani siiyey 26-kii bishii lixaad ee sanadkii 1960-kii. Soomaalilaand waxa ay ahayd markii ay madax banaanida qaadatay laba gobol oo kala ahaa; Waqooyi Galbeed oo ay Hargeysa magaalo madax u ahayd iyo Togdheer oo Burco laga xukumay. (Dawladdii kacaanka ayaa saddex gobol ku dartay oo kala ah, Sanaag, Sool iyo Awdal). Bishii toddobaad kowdeedii sanadkii 1960-kii Soomaaliland waxa ay la midowday koofurtii Soomaaliya ee Talyaanigu gumeysanayey oo markaas ka koobnaa lix gobol. Midowgaas ayaa soo afjaray oo meesha ka saaray xudduuddii gumeystayaashu kala xariiqdeen, waxaana Soomaalidii midowday ay galeen baadigoobka waaxyihii (qeybo) ka maqnaa ee lagu kala daray Itoobiya iyo Kiinya. In kasta oo Soomaalidu ay isku dayday in dhulalkii ka maqnaa ay la soo laabato, haddana kuma aysan guuleysan. Dalal badan oo Afrika ka mid ah ayaa markii ay madax banaanidooda qaateen, waxa ay isku qabsadeen dhul, waxaana markii dambe dalalkii afrikaanku ku heshiiyeen in xudduudihii gumeystuhu ka tagay sidoodii loo daayo, si meesha looga saaro is qabqabsiga xudduudaha ku saleysan. Waa dhab oo heshiiskaas waa jiraa, waana doodda ugu culus ee Soomaalilaand miiska soo saarto marka ay ka hadleyso gobollada Sool iyo Sanaag Bari, balse waxaa is weydiin mudan inaan is dul taagno qodobadan soo socda: Markii dalalka Afrika ay ku heshiinayeen in xudduudaha loo daayo sidii gumeysigu uga tagay, dalka Soomaaliya waxaa ka jirtay dawlad mid ah oo baabi’isay xudduuddii gumeystaha. Markii dalalka Afrika ay ku heshiinayeen in xudduudaha loo daayo sidii gumeysigu uga tagay, waxaa dalka ka jirey dastuur baabi’iyey xudduuddii gumeystaha, muranna kama jirin arrintaas. Dalalkii afrikaanka gumeysanayey ee xadadka u kala sameeyey, ma aqoonsana dal Soomaalilaand la yiraahdo oo hadda jira, waxa ay na Soomaaliya u yaqaanaan hal dal oo aan kala go’in. Labadii qeybood ee Soomaalida ee 1960-kii midoobay ee xadkii gumeysiga baabi’iyey, kuma aysan heshiin in xudduuddii isticmaarka la soo celiyo oo Soomaalilaand ay dal madax banaan noqoto. Dadka deggan dhulkii Ingiriisku gumeysan jirey (Soomaalilaand) iskuma raacsana in dib loo soo nooleeyo xadkaas oo laga laabto midowgii 1960-kii. Xadka Ingiriiska iyo Talyaaniga ay kala xariiqdeen waxa uu ahaa mid dheer oo kala qeybinayey gobollada Sanaag iyo Bari oo isku beegan iyo Sool iyo Nugaal oo isku began (gobollada Bari iyo Nugaal waxa ay isku ahaayeen hal gobol, halka gobollada Sool, Sanaag iyo Togdheer ay hal gobol isku ahaayeen) Xadkaas waxa uu in yar u jiraa, magaalooyinka Boosaaso, Qardho iyo Garoowe –Maxaa xadka yoocada ka duway xudduuddii kale? Tusaalayaal Mudnaan Leh Kolkii dalalka Afrika ku heshiiyeen in xudduudihii isticmaarku uga tagay Afrika ay sidoodii ahaadaan, dalka Suudaan waxa uu ahaa hal dal. Waxaa ka dambeeyey in sanadkii 2011-kii ay laba u kala go’een oo Koofurta Suudaan dal gaar ah dunidu u aqoonsatay. Dood wax ka soo qaad leh ma noqoneyso haddii lagu dooddo xudduuddii isticmaarku Afrika uga tagay, waayo, xadka labada Suudaan kala qeybiya ayaa ka dambeeyey oo dunidu aqoonsatay. Kolkii dalalka Afrika ku heshiiyeen in xudduudihii isticmaarku uga tagay afrika ay sidoodii ahaadaan, Dalka Ereteriya waxa uu ka mid ahaa dalka Itoobiya, goor dambe oo sanadkii 1993-dii ayaa Ereteriya loo aqoonsaday dal gaar ah, ka dib markii Itoobiya ay sidaas ku heshiiyeen. Haddii lagu doodo jiritaanka xudduuddii isticmaarka, ma noqoneyso dood macno ku fadhida, waayo, dunida ayaa kala go’ii dambe (Itoobiya iyo Ereteriya) aqoonsatay. Tusaalayaal Ka Baxsan Qaaradda Afrika Dawladda Jarmalka oo ka mid ahayd dawladihii la gaga guuleystay dagaalkii labaad ee dunida (1939-1945) waxaa la kala dhexmariyey xad, iyada oo loo qeybiyey bari iyo galbeed. Muddo dheer ka dib, sanadkii 1990-kii ayaa labadii Jarmal ee galbeed iyo bari waxa ay ku heshiiyeen in ay midoobaan, wixii markaas ka dambeeyey na waxaa jiray hal dawlad oo Jarmalku leeyahay. Dunidu hadda waxa ay aqoonsan tahay hal dawlad oo Jarmal la yiraahdo, xudduuddii kala qeybineysay na waa ay baaba’day, oo midnimada ayaa meesha ka saartay. Dalka Yeman oo saaran gacanka cadmeed ee badda cas, waxa uu ahaan jiray laba dal, oo Sanca iyo Cadan ay magaalo madaxyo u kala ahaayeen. Waxa ay midoobeen sanadkii 1990-kii. Dunidu maanta Yeman waxa ay u taqaanaa hal dal, xadkii u dhexeeyey labadii Yeman maanta taariikhda uun baa lagu sheegaa, ee ma aha xudduud dunidu aqoonsan tahay. Marka la soo uruuriyo warka, xadka Soomaalilaand ku doodeyso, dalalkii xariiqay ma aqoonsana, dunida kalena ma aqoonsana. Astaamaha dawladnimo ee kale ayaa ka maangalsan in ay Soomaalilaand ku dadaasho sidii ay u heli lahayd, sida, Baasaboor la aqoonsan yahay, safaarado, in ay kursi ku yeelato golayaasha gobolka iyo kuwa dunida iyo in mashaariicda iyo deeqaha dunida si toos ah loogu keeno ee aan loo soo marin Soomaaliya, balse iyada oo intaas ba u daba fadhida dawaladda federaalka ee Soomaaliya, dow ilama aha in xad aan sharciyad haysan ay ku dooddo.

The head of state appointed 32 members cabinet which comprises of ministers and assistant ministers. He also named directors general, parastatal chiefs and other top government organizations bosses. These presidential appointees are mostly new to the political landscape of the country and consists pof youthful cabinet members. This surprised many people in the know since many did not think president Bihi was capable of transfusing fresh blood into the clogged political environment of Somaliland whereby the old guards have tightened the clang to power. Simply the president was trying to experiment if new blood injected into the ailing political climate could change Somaliland for the better. This has put President Musa Bihi on the league of his own different in every aspect from his predecessors one of whom relinquished power to him. President Musa Bihi Abdi becomes the third president of Somaliland to come to power through the ballot box. The Horn Newspaper is pleased to bring to our dear readers the members of cabinet appointed by each president when he first came to power. President Dahir Rayale Kahin President Dahir Rayale Kahin came to power in 2003, and then he appointed members of his cabinet which we highlight herein………..

The former president had appointed better administration than President Musa Bihi Abdi. These all have far reaching implications on what the people expect from Mr.Bihi’s government for instance the president is expected to unify the nation, improve foreign affairs and economic development are three important factors that will affect the government wellbeing. However president Bihi selection of ministers and other top government official seem to lack the knowhow and experience to implement any tangible development and as a result of this they will simply let the head of state down in fulfilling the promises made during the elections. This will bring uncertainly to the president long term goal to sail Somaliland out of the rough seas to prosperity because his crew lack the experience of good sailors. The last elections opened wounds in Somaliland unity and those injuries seems as if they have not healed so the head of state and his government has to move fast to find a remedy to heal the disunity. The former president Ahmed Silanyo foreign policy was always criticized, but today the current government is entering uncharted territories as the future becomes more unpredictable following the fast pace of development which Somaliland must catch up. Another important thing to note is that Somaliland connections with the international community is passive and needs activation. President Bihi needs to go back to the drawing board and select a cabinet of experienced technocrats who can remove Somaliland from the muck. Horn

The Republic of Somaliland communicated its dissatisfaction of how SRSG Michael Keating presented the ongoing conflict between Somaliland and the Puntland Federal State of Somalia to the Secretary General of the United Nations, Mr. Antonio Guterres, on June 18. The letter which His Excellency, the President of the Republic of Somaliland, Musa Bihi Abdi, wrote to Mr. Guterres, accuses Mr. Keating of not only coloring the facts by putting Somaliland and Puntland on the same par politically and geographically, but, also of presenting th facts inaccurately in a disrespectful tone that was not helpful to the diffusion of hostilities on the ground at all. Mr Bihi informed SG Guterres that he viewed the letter the Special Representative sent to him and his government as a one-sided response, inaccurate as to the facts, disrespectful in tone and not helpful at all’. The President, obviously was riled by the fact that the SRSG did neither address nor imply anywhere in his letter (as below) to the RoS the fact that Puntland was a federal state of Somalia, and so subject to the directions and authority of the central FGS, where Somaliland was not and never was. The SRSG, in his letter, called ‘for an immediate cessation fo hostilities between “Somaliland” and Puntland forces following recent fighting in the Tukaraq area of the Sool region’ – which, in fact implied, that the area rightfully belonged to neither geographically or otherwise. Mr Bihi said, if at all, his government stood accused of respecting the international boundaries set out by colonial powers in 1884 and re-affirmed by the former Organization of African Unity in 1964. Puntland claims large swathes of Sanaag, Sool and Buuhoodle come under its regional government on the premise that people in those areas trace same ancestry with people in the former Mudug and Bari regions upon which bases the formation of the regional State was proclaimed in 1998 – eight years after Somaliland reclaimed its sovereignty from an ill-fated union with Somalia in 1960 but at a dear cost in lives, estimated at more than 50 000 dead. As writing this letter coincided with the same day Somalia, with the help of the United Nation’s own ICAO, completely transferred the disputed Somalia/Somaliland airspace management to Mogadishu without a prior agreement with Somaliland, President Bihi could have capitalized on the opportunity to raise the issue with Mr Guterres. In this, too, Keating did not play an objective role or even try to revive the stalled talks between the two sides during his tenure. On the contrary, he is accused of buying time for Mogadishu as he always assured Somaliland that airspace management was an issue that could not be taken over by any one party unilaterally as that will have far-reaching, international consequences that may even place precious human lives in jeopardy. The full text of President Bihi’s letter to Mr. Guterres read as follows:

New York, June 21, 2018–Authorities in the breakaway state of Somaliland should immediately lift a ban on the operations of Waaberi newspaper, a privately owned daily, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today. A Hargeisa regional court issued an order suspending the newspaper on June 19 on allegations of improper registration, according to a statement sent to CPJ by Yahye Mohamed, the executive director of the Somaliland Journalists Association (SOLJA), and the newspaper’s owner, Hassan Omar Hassan, who spoke to CPJ. The attorney general’s office in Somaliland on June 13 filed an application asking for the newspaper to be suspended, claiming that Hassan Omar Hassan was not the rightfully registered owner of the newspaper, Yahye and Hassan told CPJ. Hassan said he was not informed of the application, nor did he attend a hearing on the case. The June 19 court order, issued following the attorney general’s application, also directed printers in Somaliland not to publish the newspaper, Hassan told CPJ. The newspaper does not have a website, he said. Hassan said he acquired Waaberi newspaper from its previous owner, Abdirahman Hajj Nour, in 2013. Copies of documents shared with CPJ by Yahye and confirmed as accurate by Hassan indicate that the ministry of information and the office of the attorney general approved the change of ownership in 2013. CPJ did not independently authenticate the documents. Hassan told CPJ that he believes the decision to shut down his newspaper is in retaliation for its critical stance regarding the current government in Somaliland. He said the newspaper had recently published interviews with analysts critical of a conflict between Somaliland and Puntland, a semi-autonomous region of Somalia, and that on the day that the court order was issued banning Waaberi’s operations, it had published a story on a dispute between the federal government of Somalia and Somaliland over airspace management. “This drastic action to suspend a newspaper without giving its owner a chance to be heard underscores our concern that it is simply an excuse to silence a critical voice,” said Angela Quintal, CPJ’s Africa program coordinator. “We call on the government of President Muse Bihi Abdi to immediately allow Waaberinewspaper to resume operations and to refrain from censoring or harassing the press.” In an emailed statement, the office of the attorney general told CPJ that Somaliland’s media law does not allow dual registration or the change of ownership of newspapers and that only one “single ownership” can be authorized. The attorney general’s office did not immediately respond to CPJ’s request for clarification on which segments of Somaliland’s laws bar transfer of ownership. CPJ reviewed Article 6 of Somaliland’s Press Law, which covers registration of the press, and did not find any ban on transfer of ownership, and Guleid Ahmed Jama, who heads the advocacy group Human Rights Center Somaliland, also told CPJ there is no such law. This is not the first time that publications in Somaliland have been shut down due to the intervention of the attorney general’s office or on allegations of improper registration. At least three newspapers have been out of circulation since 2016 when the attorney general’s office ordered them to stop publishing on allegations that they had not been properly registered, according to CPJ research and Guleid.

The parties made an assessment which reduced the amount close to 200 million dollars DP World and Somaliland Port Authority have reduced the investment for the expansion of Berbera Port by 23pc. The price adjustment came into the scene after the update of the feasibility study of the project, in which Ethiopia holds a considerable stake. The initial pricing was made by a European consulting firm and is estimated to be 260 million dollars. Hence, the two parties made the re-assessment that reduced the amount to close to 200 million dollars. “The re-assessment was amended as the initial one was made a couple of years ago,” Abdi Abdillah Hassen, deputy manager of Somaliland Ports Authority told Fortune. On the port, Ethiopia recently acquired a 19pc stake while the UAE based DP World and Somaliland hold a 51pc and 30pc stake, respectively. In the partnership, Ethiopia is committed to constructing the 271Km road between the port and Ethiopia`s border town of Togochale, according to a statement by DP World. The existing road was built in 1972, with a financial aid from the European Union (EU), but is currently in poor condition. The expansion project is planned to lie on 800sqm area in two phases. The first phase, which will be executed with a 200 million dollars investment, will sit on 400sqm and can accommodate two vessels at any given time. The expansion includes the construction of additional berths. The parties have set aside 442 million dollars for the entire expansion and the development of other facilities. However, the first phase will get a priority and is expected to be finalized by 2020. A company which will undertake the development is expected to be selected by June 2018, and the construction is set to be commenced by September 2018, according to Ali Ismail Mahamoud, operations manager of the port from DP World. “The second phase will follow depending on the need and the efficiency of the first phase,” said Mahamoud. The first phase of the expansion is expected to enable the port facility to hold 150,000 containers. Upon the completion of the two phases, the capacity of the port will be upscaled to serve seven to nine vessels, on average, at any given time. SRG, an Australian based company in Victoria and established in 1961, will be the consultant to the expansion project. “Ethiopia is expected to commence the construction of the road from the port to Togochale before the end of this year,” Saad Ali Shire (PhD), minister of Foreign Affairs & International Cooperation of Somaliland told Fortune. Though Ethiopia holds shares in the port development, details of the proceedings are not outlined yet, according to a source close to the project. “The construction needs to start once the three parties form a JV company with a legal framework,” said this source. “So far the detailed agreement among the parties has not concluded and the company has not formed.” The existing old port facility has a 650-meter-long linear wharf. Berbera’s facility encompasses more than 600-meters with terminals for containers, general cargo, office building and other properties. Somaliland Port Authority handles the customs and marine services while DP World administers the operations of the port. In September 2016 DP World won a 30-year concession, with an automatic 10-year extension for the management and development of the port. The terminal is currently operating with 800 employees. The vessels it serves are coming from Dubai, China, Oman, India and Yemen. It also receives consignments of grains for humanitarian aid and assistance of the World Food Program (WFP) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Berbera port currently serves 250 customers a day with an average container stay period of 6.5 days. DP World works with five container shipping companies, namely Maersk Line, MSC, Pacific International Lines (PIL), CMA CGM S.A and Perma Shipping Line. Among the five companies, CMA CGM takes the largest share. Having an alternative corridor will give a great opportunity to Ethiopia, which had only 1.3 million metric tonnes of cargo in the 1990’s. Out of this, 90pc of it was ferried through ports in Eritrea, while the remaining was shipped through Djibouti. After the Ethio-Eritrea war, Ethiopia switched its route to Djibouti. Since then about 97pc of Ethiopia’s import-export cargo is delivered through Djibouti ports while two percent and one percent are shipped through Port Sudan and Berbera, respectively. Ethiopia planned its import-export loads to be 60pc through Djibouti, 30pc through Berbera and 10pc through Port Sudan, which Ethiopia has been using since 2015. Before the start of the first edition of the Growth & Transformation Plan (GTP I), which was set in 2010 for five years, Ethiopia’s import cargo was around 8.5 million metric tonnes and export was 600,000 metric tonnes a year. But currently, the imported freight hits 13.5 million metric tonnes while the export reaches more than 1.8 million metric tonnes a year. In having a stake at Berbera, the national security interest of the country has more weight than the commercial interest, according to Mamo Mihretu, an expert on logistics and currently working as a program leader for the Ethiopia Trade Logistic Project at World Bank. He believes that it will create competitiveness for Ethiopia’s export. “On top of that, it could have been a solution for the inefficiency at the port of Djibouti,” he said. “It will also give Ethiopia the power of negotiation on prices as it will sit at the table.” The project also excites the local business community. Gizeshwork Tessema, managing director, Gize Plc Logistics & Shipping, is one of them as she believes that it will bring a great opportunity for transport companies whose businesses were stalled after the commencement of the Ethio-Djibouti Railway transportation service. “Beyond having alternative corridor and price competitiveness, it will help to retrieve the businesses of transport companies,” she told Fortune. However, she fears that the major shareholder at the port, DP World, might manipulate the prices like it has been doing at the Port of Djibouti. Along with developing the port, Mamo suggests the government should work on a couple of things; integrate port development with inland corridors, form an agency that will oversee port ownership and operations, and develop port ownership strategy.
