Ship it off to Djibouti and let a truck bring it to Galkacyo.

Bosaso is no good for shipping off large items :down:

AW, Bossasso is perfect and cheaper for your items.

Cabdallah, what are you trying to do here, be honest to the brother. Even Somalilanders avoid Djibouti and opt for Bossasso.

All you need are a few phonecalls to your contacts in Dubai and Gaalkacyo and make it happen.

My dad shipped some stuff without paying custom at Bossasso. Courtesy to his crooked friend Gaagaab, who gave him the papers stating that the items were for developmental purposes! :lol: :up:

Aw its ironic you talk about somali pirates who harass those that try to steal our resources.

As we speak the US war ships constantly are engaged in illegal fishing in our coasts in the pretext of fighting terror.
Our fishermen each day suffer from returning without any fish.
USA use nets that are internationaly banned. they process the fish an send them to the gulf.
while other illegal boats damp toxic wastes in our coast.

So soamli pirates are the answer not the question.

Cabdallah,

Why are all the piracy cases off of Eyl and other Puntland areas and not Southern Somalia? Does it have something to do with the waters? The farthest South I see piracy happening is Hobyo and I rarely ever see it in Xamar, Marka, Kismaayo etc. even though I'm sure a lot of people would do it if they could.

Reer Puntland have by far the greatest knowledge of the seas of all Somalis. Dashiishe, Warsangeli and Majeerteen. The Seafaring clans. Ironically if you show Dhulbahante the sea, he'll think he died and went to heaven, thinking it is sweet water.

The ship has sunk to the level Abdiwahab intended for...I guess his not out of the woods yet, teaching an old dog new tricks sure is useless :lol:

As usual Somalis are quick to blame certain clan when this is a problem that is common across Somalia.

13 months ago: A file picture taken 12 November 2006 in Mogadishu shows members of the Supreme Islamic Council of Somalia (SICS) parading arrested pirates onboard a cargo ship. Suspected Somali pirates 25 February 2007 hijacked a UN-chartered cargo ship off the coast of northeastern Somalia, United Nations officials said. The freighter, MV Rozen, was seized after delivering 1,800 tonnes of food aid to the towns of Bosasso and Berbera in the Somali region of Puntland, UN World Food Programme spokeswoman Stephanie Savariaud told

Shirib, They did one case to demonstrate the efficiency of their little honeymoon. Even Puntland has done it many times capturing pirates and showing off. In the news.
