Unsustainable population growth in Somalia

1960: 3.5 million
2012: 11 million and counting

Our population doesn't even exceed 15mill and you think we're much? You've gt us confused with the chinese and the indians.

I'm not talking about the overall number of Somalis but the unsustainable population growth. Somali families with large families exceeding 7 etc.

According to Encarta, population of Somalia in 2050 will be 25 million.

uk is a third the size of somalia yet has 60 million population. Japan is half the size of somali yet has 120 million population which is 12 times that of somalia. somalia with the land we have can support 300 million people.

Nomand, why did recent famine happen then?

Somalia is an arid country. How do you expect Somalia to grow economically with a high population growth that is a burden on the country's resources.

@Advo

I hope you are joking otherwise utterly irresponsible.

Ethiopia is 100 million
Kenya is 40 million

and we are less then 15 million?

I am convinced we are slowly losing our tradition of marrying 4 women and having 30 something kids.
