It is indesputable that Somaliland is de facto state and it is going in the footsteps of Taiwan. Foreign countries will sign contracts with Somaliland because national interests transcend international law. Those who argue about this theme should understand how the real world works. The world is looking for energy, raw materials and markets. Where these things are found, everybody will go to it.

OH for the love of God, in any way you look at it, Somaliland is the chieftain Mandeeq taking
the pills (as always was/is the case) and wearing the real helmets/swimsuits of the Imperialist FWC democratic values and connected to the fast secular knowledges and tolerant religious ideologies of great Shakespear Kingdom Empire headed by HMG ..all across the Global village of the contemporary World order
of our generational ERA. Make no mistake about it something dramatic is taking place in Somaliland
well connected to the fastly experienced world of HMG. In this regard even the World's only super power
will not be able to succeed in it's foreign policies without London and the EU not to say the least about
India,China,the Russians etc etc. In this regard whilst Somaliland is seen as the top beacon twilight
in the HOA/E.A. and beyond and Somalia as a failed State plunged deeply into beyond all repairs
let's be fair to the Somaliland progress and welcome the good news. It's also upto Somaliland whether
to bid for a new British Commonwealth membership or not in dealing with the recognition issues.
Cheers.

it would have been much better if somaliland would ask the somali youth from the west who are educated or studying geology to come back to the motherland and work in the industry and the somaliland govt buy the machinery needed to extract these minerals; this way the money stays in somaliland and only goes towards somalis. kuwait, uae and chinese companies will all get the piece of the pie and profit tens of millions… if not hundreds of millions from somaliland. this is not good. i hope the government is looking after somali interests.

however, i am so glad somaliland is progressing. but i urge somali students and youth back in the west to come back to the motherland and help your fellow somalis back home. teach the skills to the somalis back home so then they dont require international assistance or the "ill scratch your back if you scratch mine" notion that kuwait, uae and chinese companies have done.

somaliland haa nolaato, somalia haa nolaato, all somalis around the world, haa noo laadaan

Mohamed11, Yes I do want our natural resources to be exploited but I also want Somalis, our own people to be the main benefit….NOT foreigners and their shareholders!

This S/Land gov needs to be open and transparent to it's citizens and not just give us false information about "so and so Berbera Port development with an unnamed Chinese firms…or a so and so oil contract" etc….

Believe me Mohamed11 and all, I had met these officials and they are very incompetent and lack clear strategy in promoting our nation's wealth. Furthermore, what is also disturbing is this myth that is peddled by the Somalis that our nation is blessed with mineral wealth. This speculative notion with no factual geological facts or proven commercial reserves MUST end.

We can no longer live in this false hope and dream that we have extensive and diverse mineral wealth when there has been no exploration work in several years. And until than, let's exploit what we do have!!!
