waxaa aan kaa waddo keliya waa we dont have to look up to Kenya/Ethiopia just imagine if we didnt have this nonsense tribal wars for 23 damn years ? waxaan laa mid ahan laheyn wadamada Maqhreb oo kale xagga developments...
Somalida waxaa ee wadda qaadeen inferiority complex towards Kenya/Ethiopia specially since 1991 !
I know what u mean, we have the likes of Khalid clapping his butt-cheeks for Ethiopia. But if we discuss their development and appreciate them, there is nothing wrong with it. Last time I checked Kenya and Ethiopia are not the ones that were stupid enough to go on a pointless civil war. So we have no rights to belittle them and neither should we worship them or see them as big things.
Also since 1991 many of the Somali mentality has changed marka hala yaabin walaalkiisa
Somalia accuses Norwegian oil explorer DNO of destabilising country

(Reuters) - Norwegian oil company DNO and other small explorers are destabilising Somalia, the African country's petroleum ministry said on Wednesday, warning it may lodge complaints against these firms to the United Nations Security Council.
DNO has been prospecting for oil in Somaliland, a break-away territory of Somalia. The company did not respond to telephone and email requests for comment but in July a senior official said DNO would not engage in any activities that threaten peace in Somaliland.
Somalia has been riven by conflict for more than two decades as rival warlords and Islamist militants have fought for control of the Horn of Africa country.
The Somali Petroleum ministry said companies signing overlapping oil contracts and striking deals with regional governments were "adding fire to conflicts".
"These small companies are destabilising the country and destroying the international community's effort to build the peace and the security of the country," it added.
The ministry in a statement singled out DNO, saying the company is "planning to introduce armed militiamen in areas already in conflict and thereby stoking old feuds which resulted in internal displacement and harming the innocent and the most vulnerable people".
The ministry did not provide further details or any proof for its accusations.
"We are warning those companies that the Somali government will lodge complaints with their respective countries and the United Nations Security Council," the ministry added.
Around a dozen companies, including many multinational oil and gas majors, had licenses to explore Somalia before 1991, but since then Somaliland and other regional authorities have granted their own licenses for the same blocks.
Somali officials last months met representatives of ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Chevron, and BP for the first time since 1991, the ministry said.
The government said it wanted the oil majors to provide a timeline for their return to Somalia.
East Africa is rapidly emerging as an exciting oil and gas province after discoveries in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique.
But U.N. monitors in July warned Western commercial oil exploration in disputed areas of Somalia and discrepancies over which authorities can issue licenses to companies could spark further conflict in the African nation. (Writing by Drazen Jorgic; editing by Susan Thomas)
Adiga horta don't ever correspond me on this forum and I will also not correspond with you. I had enough of your silly outburst. You are so pathetic and emotional. A slight mentioning of the unity of Somalia and you respond within a heart-beat even if the conversation isn't directed at you.
I could care less about your existence on this earth and you're talking about conversations..
Don't spread lies about my country, I'll say this once, Somaliland was never part of Somalia.

Kibirka beenta ah iska jooji. Dad inga xun oo inga ahklaaq xun maba jiro. Munkar iyo fusuqnimo ayaad ku soo barbaarten. Umada Islaamka ah fara ka qaad. Meesha dood fiican la iimoow. Cay iyo hadalo raqiis ah ha la iman.

How in the hell is that denying right to invest ? What can dirty waqooyi's moans thousands of miles away from SL change the situation on the ground. As i expected you have no proofs to back up your claims. Wasn't your cousin Mrprestige bragging here how his clan chased oil explorer firms out of their degaan. How many times i have to tell you stop blaming your failures on us !
Its your minister of petroleum making these claims against sl, u have ur report. U cant say dont invest in sl to oil companies and than say i haven't said anything indho adaga walanweyntu
Ethiopia is doing very well but the government needs to go. Tribalism by TPLF is not healthy for Ethiopians. We need one unitary government that represents the true Ethiopia rather than one ethnic imposing its junta dogma on the rest.
Nevertheless, Ethiopia is making progress in terms of infrastructure.
Somalis of Somalia will always be jealous, envious and hateful since they can't even build a tent for the 5-6 million homeless across the failed sewage that they regard as a country. AMISOM had to come in to stretch out tents and Turkish aid agencies.
Addis Ababa
Addis' public transport
Addis is more clean than Nairobi including far less corruption. Somalis of Somalia only know Isli and think that's heaven. Of course it is compared to their failed sewage AMISOMIA.
