Instituting a Coast Guard is essential for the establishment of the rule of law within Somali waters and the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). This contract clearly contributes to the stability and economic recovery of Somalia and is supporting the Country’s Six Pillar Policy. With its Headquarters in The Netherlands, The Atlantic Marine and Offshore Group has set out the main objectives for the new structured Somali Coast Guard: • Monitoring and Surveillance of the Exclusive Economic Zone • Patrolling, controlling and securing the Exclusive Economic Zone. • Securing trade and Ports • Protecting natural resources • Protection of fishing grounds from illegal foreign fishing boats • Prevention of dumping of toxic materials • Search, Rescue and Anti-Smuggling services The Atlantic Marine and Offshore Group has developed a series of innovative Long Range Patrol Vessels, equipped with high speed intervention vessels. The Atlantic Marine and Offshore Group will build, maintain and operate the Coast Guard Fleet in compliance with Somali Coast Guard Directorate in a safe, effective and cost efficient manner. The Atlantic Marine and Offshore Group has developed an education and training programme for the Somali Coast Guard Directorate and will develop a Coast Guard Training Centre to train Somali Coast Guard personnel, security officers and shore based support personnel. The Atlantic Marine and Offshore Group will aim to hand over all development, training and operations aspects within medium term to the Somali Coast Guard Directorate. The Atlantic Marine and Offshore Group will operate, on behalf of the authority and administrative command of the Federal Republic of Somalia - Somali Coast Guard Directorate and will adhere to all applicable embargoes and restrictions set by the United Nations.

Carafaat Posted July 31, 2013 More foreign mercenaries. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoniZ Posted July 31, 2013 It seems this pattern of signing mercenaries is the only continuity successive Somali politicians cannot fail to miss. Instead of starting the hardwork of rebuilding capable marine force, their incompetence falls for quick fixes. WHO BENEFITS FROM THOSE CONTRACTS? I remember 2005 the time when Yusuf's TFG was not even in control of any coastal areas, they had the creativity to sign a contract with Topcat Marine Security inc - $50m contract has been awarded by Somalia's transitional government. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4471536.stm Number of similar contracts have been signed since by Sharif's TFG, Puntland and Somaliland.

Carafaat Posted July 31, 2013 Their Dutch press release offers better background information. It seems that they are not going to do those activities themselves, but rather support and train a Somali Coast Guard to do it.

Carafaat Posted August 1, 2013 The Dutch own one the biggest shipping fleets and industry(insurance, port) in the world. Piracy has really terrified this industry. they have even deployed several Navy ships and even submarine in Somalias waters. And even convicted and jailed dozens of Somali pirates here in Holland. Funded jails in Somaliland and Puntland. They seem to be determined to eradicate piracy. http://www.defensie.nl/english/tasks/missions/somalia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nuune Posted August 1, 2013 ^^ is that another way of endorsing them, that is a very weak points to make, Somalia doesn't need anyone, these contracts are being forced onto them, sign them, or else ......, and Somali government thinks it is the end of the world if they don't sign any paper contracts that says 50 years contracts and 150 years contracts, Siyaad Barre was always suspicious of paper contracts.

I am not endorsing them. Just explaining their motives. No goverment should delegate, tender or "sell" its security tasks to companies, let alone foreign companies or merceneries. Its not sustainable, nor does it enforce the goverments power, independence. I think the only reason they have signed to this, is because of the 'Dutch' funding these activities.
