Jacaylbaro Posted April 21, 2008 Somaliland is a fact that can neither be denied nor be ignored, so this illusive world recognition its been seeking in the last while is in reality not that necessary at all, actually in these chaotic days of exploitative globalization and rampant greed for natural resources - not being noted or recognized can be a blessing in disguise for Somaliland. More often than none the business of nation building is best taken care of in isolation and free from the confusing noises and corrupting influences the outside world brings to newborn countries. Whatever recognition that really matters for Somaliland and that truly counts for it’s future in the long run is something it already has: the inhabitants of Somaliland recognize the existence of their country and the remarkable progress they’ve made in building a relatively stable working democracy, when in comparison, Mogadishu and the south are still mired in anarchy and lawlessness, and next door Puntland has become a den of thieves and a de facto dictatorship by an alliance of corrupt tribes with an insulting so-called law that even forbids it’s inhabitants the very basic right of creating their own political parties. Somalilander’s should not worry at all about being recognized by foreign powers with their own very personal interests, nor should they pay any attention at all to the mostly absurd tribal sentiments masquerading as nationalistic arguments coming from Mogadishu, Garowe or from the diaspora. Once Somaliland becomes a fully mature multi-party democracy with free press, it will be strong enough to safeguard it’s own interests, and when that fast coming moment comes it won’t matter if the rest of the world recognizes it or not, then the rest of Somalis shall become proud of what Somaliland has accomplished.
