Holac Posted February 5, 2018 Does Somalia need another port in a small town? The country can't even regulate and control existing ones with proper inspections and taxation system. The more ports the government introduces, the less control the federal government will have on what enters the country (weapons, drugs, contraband, fake money, etc). It is more efficient and economically beneficial for the country to truck goods and other products from Mogadishu and Bosaso to the central region. There are thousands of truckers whose life depends on transporting these goods. Nearly all the big boats and ships at Somali coast are owned by foreigners. Before anything else, Galmudug needs roads, universities, water projects, city infrastructure, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is also historical. There was a fairly independent sultanate there just before the Italians arrived. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
