This is excellent news as livestock has always been a big part of Somalia's economy. Puntland was able to build a livestock quarantine that met the specifications for export to other countries. Businesses like this will only help the suffering. Masha'Allah.

 

With all the death and destruction news, it's nice to hear positive stuff.

Spot on brother... and some are angry here making claims they are unable to back up.

LOOOOOOOOOOOL @

Puntland was able to build a livestock quarantine that met the specifications for export to other countries.

Sxb Saudi Arabia has lifted the ban on the import of livestock from entire Somalia including Somaliland. It is not just Puntland and Puntland didn't do anything to "quarantine the met specs" like you stated.

^^^The quarantine is not just for Saudi Arabia adeer, but for many countries, also Berbera has a quarantine lad, oops why are you even talking you are at the bottom of the supply chain, just make sure you bring your animals to the market.

[The Zack]

Nigga,

 

The Saudis demand, I supply! What are you bal? The middleman?

[General Duke]

^^^lool. adeer give it up, your livestock is not needed, I got the animals, I got the quarantine and I got the port. You got an opinion you are unable to back up.. My N..

^^^No adeer, I provided a factual report from Bossaso, ask this dude why he is so upset and making threats that he will stop the animals when clearly they aint his or his clans?

Bosaso is no match for Berbera. Berbera is able to support bigger ships, is half the distance to the market (Jiddah/Jizan), and the livestock require less time on the sea which means less food and less fuel costs. That means the livestock brokers in Berbera are able to maintain profit margins even when they offer better prices per head of livestock to the nomad - which in turn means for nomads bringing their livestock over to Berbera.

Gentlemen,

 

In all honesty, this is good news for all Somalis regardless of where they're positioned on the supply chain. Even the one who makes shoes or is in construction benefits. The old lady selling 'qat/chat' on the corner, the shoe-shine kid on the street, etc.

 

Let's come back to reality - it's obvious that some of us have not visited our homelands since we left for 'Qurbaha'.

 

Talk about being out of touch!

[xiinfaniin]

It’s good news that our secessionist brother are being preoccupied with other Somali’s economic and political activities these days.

Actually the figures don't bear you out for the last several years.

 

 

 

 

As you can see starting in 2001 until the last full year 2007 - Berbera port has been underperforming Bosaaso port sometimes significantly so. Somalis have a habit of insisting they are right without checking facts particularly when it comes to qabiil issues. Don't make it a habit saaxib.

 

These figures were compiled by the Food Security Analysis Unit - Somalia from figures supplied by the Berbera/Bosaaso port authorities.
