Why would Somalia join the EAC???

[shuss1]

Why would a 'country' that has no controls of its own borders, rampant corruption. Foreign bases. A country infested with foreign spies. That has no economy to speak of. That has zero industry join a trading block?

I would also add is why would any trading block allow a member with such deficiencies into it's block. What is the rational and why now?

I begin with the candidate. Let us see. No control of if its borders. Any foreigner can arrive from any country in the world. If they have criminal records, spies, assassins, mercenaries don't worry just pay the $30 fee and you're in. So the doqon hsm can pocket it - no one knows who and what their reasons are for being in the 'country'.

Zero production of domestic industry. Everything is imported from ports. Including things like sugar and vegetables, fruits, sorghum, that the country can produce.

Don't worry about the Fish that has been taken care off. This corrupt 'govt' has signed a new deal with China.

Yes it's great business lose $600 in potential fish exports but at least we gain $10m in brown envelopes under the table. That is the Somali way.

So what will countries like Kenya and Tanzania do. They'll dump their produce into the market and destroy any potential for indigenous industry of course.

Somalia becomes a political and economic colony of you guessed it: Arabs and Bantus.

That's how low they have sunk.

This is being pushed by the west which controls EAC, AU, ECOWAS to further dilute whatever semblance of dignity the country has.

In the 1990's the US dumped its rice onto Haiti as 'food aid'. That idiot Bill Clinton. Believed ngo food aid is a great idea. So he bought directly rice own farmers in his home state of Alabama and then dumped the rice onto Haiti. This then collapsed agriculture in Haiti and the farmers fled to the cities. They're they created shanty towns that grew and grew and bred crime and disorder.

Now the Haitians who eat rice with everything. Spend $700m every year on American rice instead of their own farmers.

When will dumb Somalis ever learn??

[Game changer]

I think it's good for Somalis to easily create their own businesses in those countries.    What are you afraid of.  Somalis are not bad at selling stuff.   We only need  to pool our resources and  create  big factories.
