Duufaan Posted January 8, 2019 30 minutes ago, Old_Observer said: Puntland is unique. I know everyone is unique in their own ways, but Puntland has "deep state". Even contradicting presidents cannot make drastic changes to the state. Even late Yey, Ade Musse, Farole...who seemed larger than the state maintained almost the same thing when they became presidents. Its old enough to have "deep state" that doesn't change much. Avoid war by all means, send part timers to Mugadishu and continue fast economic development. 3 Part-time? why not fulltime? The same advice that Gabre use to give. Somali need to be a nation to develop its economy. No room for gulf style scenario here, just too late. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need full time dedicated for fast economic development. Economic development is more work than politics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am 100% sure the only reason, SSC was not created as federal state, is because of pleasing Puntlland, Puntland create the whole federal thing, you had nothing to with it, and also was primary creator of federal states. With Omar SHarmaake as PM, Puntlander, and Hassan CULUSOW, SSC was sidelined, and hence no Federal State.(of course SSC were also not united). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Suldaanka Posted January 9, 2019 This whole idea of SSC becoming a Federal State is a pipe-dream. It will never happen. And Puntland claiming these regions is causing unease and unnecessary problems for itself. These problems include humiliation on the battle fields, diverting focus on more urgent issues like fighting Terror groups, squeeze on budgets etc. Somaliland will keep the screws turning so eventually Puntland will choose the obvious option which is to just fold back and leave.

I think it is the biggest waste of time and effort. Everyone will come to that realisation sooner or later. Galmudug itself is unable to sustain itself at this moment. It shouldn't exist, so is HirShabeele. I think, the those regions that should exist (temporarly/pending review say in 20 years time) is Puntland, SW and Jubbaland. These regions are consequential, i.e. it is fact on the ground. SW and Jubbaland are supported and guaranteed by Kenya and Ethiopia. While Puntland is a self-sustaining region. HirShabeele and Galmudug should fold under Mogadishu. They cannot independently sustain themselves at this moment and they do not have Kenya or Ethiopia to guarantee their existence. With regards to Sool/Sanaag, there already exists power and authority. You cannot just like jolt from the sky (jug so dhacay) claim you are going to create a region from Mogadishu. When Mogadishu leaders cannot even set their foot on the ground. How absurd. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Infact Farmaajo/khayre already approved a future state in north east and Gaas was supportive at least some point of time but it is the local people who are not same page yet. From laasqoray to Buuhoodle, people need to sit together and put a plan together. It is their hands. I was the one arguing that Somaliland can not be vauable state not only politically stablity but economic vauabulity. It is life supported by NGO and foreign donors for past 20 years with little economic development. Still the cracks are all over. Only those who control Berbera coridor are doing well the rest are either marginalized or despair situation, like Caare community. For Somalia in general the future is bright. Local regions must be supported by federal government in short time. No foreign powers are need to maintain stability. Only locals can grantee their future.

Btw, today marks 1 year since Somaliland dislodged Gaas from Tukaraq. Happy anniversary. The funniest thing is that, Gaas never accepted peace in Tukaraq. Not too sure if he ever will. Also the 3 Stooges, that dude who sworn to Allah by 3 names and promised a war. And VP Camey's "Mother of all Wars". What bluff masters. They are history. New leaders of Garowe will have enough of their own issues to even worry about Tukaraq. Somaliland, like Cadde Muse and Faroole, will promise to President Deni that it is peace, lets kiss and make up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duufaan Posted January 9, 2019 The only thing that the new Garoowe administration needs is to work with moqdisho government and the rest of the businesses will take care itself at least next two years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
