I'm getting strange PMs of Euro people asking me stuff about Puntland.

Man these guys watch this place.

Some PMs:

Hi there,

I am a British journalist based in Abu Dhabi in the UAE. I want to come to Bosaso to try and interview some men who are in prison there after trying to hijack a ship from the UAE.
At the moment, I am trying to find out how to get to Bosaso, and how to get in contact with the authorities there. After seeing your very nice pictures, I am writing to see if you are able to help me make contact with anyone who would be able to help, and to see if there is any advice or information you can give me.

Many thanks,

Hello,

My name is Dimitri I am a Greek businessman who is very interested in getting information about the port town Bosaasso. Our organisation Hadjioannou Africa-South Asia specialized in livestock business is to spread its divisions more into the horn of Africa and Bosaasso looks like a very promising place. Can you provide me any information about business life in Bossaasso. Thank you very much.

Hi,

After seeing your pictures on the forum I would like to ask you a few questions. I work for a French channel and after the recent hijackings my channel would like to make a documentary about the life of the Somali pirates. From all the articles I have read I know most of the pirates operate from Puntland. How is the secuirity situation on the ground over there, and would it be safe for a western group to shoot a documentary there? Can you give me any information how I can get in touch with local authoraties in Bosaso?

I hope to hear from you soon.

AND A FEW OTHERS LOL

nope, some are old but it is real

nosy white people

Even though we can't trust whities,they have helped us after the HUTUS escaped from their caves.

So as long as they know their place,they can come.When they act up all we have to do is kidnap a few of them

wow that's cool

wooooow what a bunch of geeks

they sound genuine people to me, and after all we do need foreign ideas and investment,

so dawwa did you get back to any of them and help them out.

I told them to contact agencies like UN, Care Int. who work in Puntland who can provide more information about security etc..

You shouldn't really generalize. I know a few white Muslimahs that went to Somalia and passed out food and blankets.

You too Dawwa, I got some PMs, one from an Australian journalist and another Dutch journalist who wants to have contacts in Puntland.

I ignored them, cuz I'm actually useless. I can't help them shit.

I actually know a guy who works for the UN in puntland, he has his own office and shid....they should contact me.
