Too bad the bulk of Somaliland's hard foreign currency goes back to the qat farmers in Ethiopia.But building roads is not easy we dont have the investors right now all we can do is collect and raise money for similar projects micro finances works but it also takes years to kick off if there is no political leadership that makes it sustainable, we could easily build proper infrastructure in the country re construct berbera port connect major roads , if we could only manage the inflow of hard currency in the country properly.
History has shown tampering with the qat trade with higher taxes or efforts to control its import have nasty side effects. In the 80s it triggered the SNM. Much of recent Somali conflicts could be seen as part of these modern day Opium Wars, except with qat. The Somali populace chews on.
So you're still holding on to that blatant lie?
The HRW report totally debunked the nonsense, proving that the SNM weren't triggered by the Khat trade or the regulations.
Shove the faqash lies where the sun don't shine.
