Mr. Balishire is a great thinker and forward man, whose politics and views are relevant, modern and timely. Balishire thinks outside the box and is a great asset to Somaliland. I have never seen a Lander as determined, passionate and as humble as Balishire. He is a fantastic man who will make huge difference to Somaliland's image in down under.
He has already established a number of important relations. He single handily organized many trips, meetings and seminars for Somaliland ministers including Mr. Abdi Hussein Dualeh's participation in the energy conference in Perth, Australia, last year.

Mr. Abdi Hussein Dualeh with the former Australian Foreign Minister Honorable Bob Carr.
He hosted many Landers politicians and non-politicians. He is the first Lander in Australia and New Zealand to answer any Lander who needs help whatever that may be. He helped organize Ayan's historical facial surgery with Edna Adan Ismail and travels across the Pacific to make such things possible. As you know Australia is not like UK, Australia is vast land and the settlements are far and wide apart.
What I like most about Mujahid Balishire is that he locks his eyes on the prize and there is no way of derailing or diverting his attention. If he sets his goal to become President of SL one day, I know he is going to achieve it...even if that means crawling over the wall.
Him and Hirsi teaming up is like the A-Team of Idoor superstars. He is one of the most transparent and passionate man. He can write more books about Somaliland than J. K. Rowling and her Harry Porters.
Just to stay ahead, the man carries at least five mobile phones; friends, family, government, NGOs and immigration
I hardly see any Lander who thinks beyond Habar-Habar but Balishire is one of them. He is all Somaliland. He eats green, sleeps white and breathes red.
Mujahid Balishire with the Premier of the Government of Victoria, The Hon. Dennis Napthine. --- Yes indeed he loves to be referred to as "Mujahid" just like the Hawdian; it's Isaxaaq thing

Mujahid Balishire with Amb. Mohamed Behi Yonis and the Hon. Dr Saad Ali Shire.
He will open a new office in Melbourne once he returns and he already has good ideas on how to make it sustainable. He is a true Mujahid.
