WTF Ivory Coast isnt even larger than Hadaaftimo to Laas Qoray
Why do you think I criticize Somalia so harshly? Look at those pictures and see how behind we are.
I agree with u there voltage...but puntland has 99 year agreement signed with hafza multi national firm. They stopped work on the project because their isn't strong laws protecting their investments. Once Puntland and somalis can sort out their politics hafza said they will continue with the massive project..its 100 year project..that is why farole has been going around engaging the international community and somalis about federalism. We need to sort out politics or else puntland massive projects wont go forward.
Here is a few example of what hafzah wants to do
Rail-way Punt thru-out d-block territories
Ras hafun tourism project. It will be like our tourist sector and the city is being designed like the image below
U can verify that below

Bossaso future city in 99 years
We have the investments all lined up in puntland...we have the developers that have signed the agreements..we have the oil consortiums that have invested $100 million into exploration and also invested $3 million into garowe airport...we have lootah a uae firm who invested $50 million into bossaso airport and port making them most modern and up to date facilities in somalia. Shit even equipping it with aero facilities so night time planes can fly down.
We have the strategic positioning of 122 000 ships that pass our ports unlike any other city in somalia...we have tourist potential, oil, democracy building, and foreign investments lining up for us..but they all just waiting for somalia and puntland to agree on something politically so these investors can have guarantees their investments are protected and they dont lose their money...that is the only obstacle stopping us now...wa somali politics...farole has been on campaign so far internationally and domestically trying to politically get something arranged so we puntland can move on and guarantee our investors protection laws federally and state level.
But right now the whole federalism is looking shaky waters and sharif is talking about unity...marka till that is solved our projects are on hold..but thankfully 99 year project which is the only one on hold, is for 99 years..so we have 99 years to sort our shit before that contract expires..
But we dont want war anymore, we see the potential our region has...and we dont want to waste it...investors have given us hope where nowhere else have investors spent a cent...we have strong ally in america after the washington meeting recently..marka all that is left is we sit down and sort this political shit out...and puntland is heading to the future.
Infact farole said he is willing to hold peace-talks between the warring factions

We are serious about peace because we see opportunity that is never been seen in somalia sxb. We dont lose that opportunity over pathetic shit like qabil..
