"Somalia is lucky, the BEST oil and diaspora" Chatham house

[hydrogen]

Right before the end, the chair Mp says Somalia is a lucky country because they have willing diaspora and also the BEST natural resources that exist right now.

Clutch your pearls ladies, the British are coming.

They're already there, their troops have been deployed loool.

If the Somali governments doesnt nationalize the natural resources, they should be hanged for highest form of treason. That includes everyone from kuwa madaxda isku sheegeya in Somaliland and Puntland to Xasan Sheikh Maxamoud. I wouldnt be able to witness Somalia turn into a new Nigeria, ilaahay baan ka magan galnay.

If it did, I'd not be Somali anymore. Simple as lol.

Mashallah. British troops tag-teaming with AMISOM to karbaash al-shabaab? I'm all for it. Hopefully, after that Somalia and Somaliland can sit down and talk with an agreement being reached on "one Somalia." If Somalia prospers, I can't see what would hold Somaliland back from joining us other than Siilanyo wanting to stay in charge.

They're going soon, thanks to Turkey who pressured the UN to do so.

AMISOM mandate ends next month and will not be renewed.

British troops will be much better so it doesn't really matter.

Foreign forces are our biggest bet for security dhaan dhaan yahow.

Don`t kid yourselves...AMISOM will still be in Somalia when Hassan Sheikhs term ends.
The British may send some military trainers/advisors, but thats all.

Hassan Sheikh mention clearly that the Somali reconstruction will be primarily through the private sector.
This is code for, "my financial backers and friends will be given lucrative contracts".

The chair of the Q&A session mentioned in closing, that Somalia possessed extraordinary natural resources.
Why was Hassan Sheikh silent on this matter?

From what I can make out....Somalia is gonna be like a piece of meat, carved up by foreign powers.
Of course you will have your local elites who will grow rich, while the rest of the country gets shit all.
