It's the The Somaliland Developement Coperation bearing fruit

The Somaliland Developement Coperation
The point of the corporation is to facilitate international investment in Somaliland and economic interaction for the benefit of the Somaliland people. As an unrecognised state, it is isolated. Despite its extraordinary achievements in stability and democracy, international donors cannot deal directly with its Government, and foreign investors face uncertainty about whether contracts—the basis of secure business—can be enforced. The point of the corporation is to establish an entity to circumvent that problem. Indeed, I hope that it might lead the Foreign Office, through our trade arrangements, to be able to underpin some of the potential for business development and trade with Somaliland, which is difficult at present.

Puntland is a pirate enclave with officials forcing the pirates to bribe them. If you ever for a second believed puntland is on the same development as Somaliland you are wrong. The high corruption that exists when a former Taxi driver is a leader of a clan enclave. For fucks sakes he doesnt even leave Garowe and visit the other clan enclave areas.

Know the difference, before you adress me.
