even international observers are saying that the close ties between UAE and SOMALILAND will bring in more investment.

Dr Michael Walls, chief observer for the International Election Observation Mission in Somaliland, agreed that the relationship between the UAE and Somaliland has the potential to grow further under the new president.
He added: “Now the election is out of the way, I think things will move much faster on the port as well as developing the military base. And I have no doubt the new president will be hoping to benefit from closer cooperation with the Gulf, from improving the roads, to health, to education.
“From here on, I believe we will see more investment and what’s more, we’ll see evidence of that investment, as the projects start to come to life.”
