What are Somalia's tallest buildings?

Specific names would be useful, and photos.

I have a Tibetan friend and lately we've been bragging over which man's (shitty) country is better. I mock him about Tibet being China's slave and he mocks Somalia about being Ethiopia's slave (even worse).

I need fuel, this is large-scale fadhi ku dhir. Back me up.

I can specifically say Savoy Building in downtown Xamar (near maxkamada badbaadada) was at least 20 floors.

FAH, I need photos and names -- SOURCES. But 8 stories, damn that's a new level for Somalis.

AW, the Ethiopian soldiers are just finishing the demolition project started in '91. They're not doing anything new.

Eternauta, does the building still exist or is it covered in sand and litter like the rest of the city?

As far as I knew..Sei piano >.the six stories building near the American embassy in Hamar was the tallest.

Savoy centre was either 5 or 6 ..

Savoy Center, Somali Central bank, and few more tallest buildings in the heart of Mogadishu was OWNED BY ONE ISAAQ MAN. JIRDEH HUSSEIN.

If this man decides to blow them up those buildings, then the Somali capital will have only 3-stories buildings left.

It was a very modern building. At the time when I left Xamar, in 1991, it was intact.

The tallest Building in xamar was Owned by jirde Xussein as some one already stated, and that building was not tall, compare to the ones in Hargeisa Today, even the building in Garowe is taller then Jirde's old building...

who ever said their was 20 floors tall buildings in xamar must been on crack

The Tallest buildings in somalia and somaliland are the ones in Hargeisa, The New Dahabshill Building in central Hargeisa 8 story building, and The Telesom Tower in hargeisa ...

The Tallest somali owned Building!!!!

The Second tallest
