Dear all My Makhir brothers.
I urge u to support puntland which i know most of warsangeli do, however their are sections who are just interested in their own glory and want to think they can survive in the wild africa by themselves. We must stay united for the sake of our survival. We are brothers and blood is thicker then anything.
Lets work together and correct the wrongs that has occurred in the past and make our region a better place for our ppl. Nin walbo sharaf gurigis ayuu ku lee yahay, And Puntland is warsangeli land and it tears me apart to see them distance themselves from the very same thing they founded. It was warsangeli elders who came to garowe and united the harti because they didn't like sland seccessionist claims. Now today section of them are talking about makhir republic nonsense.
War meeshan noone will win...if puntland divides, mj will be eaten alive by hawiye islamist...and the remaining harti will be destroyed by isaaq and snm regime. They have never liked u no matter how much u try to think otherwise. It's in our interest to stay close to one another in these tough times for the sake of our ppl's.
We are surrounded by enemy clans...if we have united front noone can touch us. If we divide that barrier they will find ways in. In 2003 when Puntland attacked sland...sland sent everything they had to puntland and we defeated them quite quickly and took sool and sanag and parts of togdheer. They only managed to defeat puntland because abdullahi had some unfinished business with the hawiye for 91 and puntland took its guard down in that area and it's resources were focused in hamar. SNM thugs only can defeat us when we are half manned not when we are fully manned.
When we are fully-manned and they are fully manned we all sent ther results of 2003. If u think they weren't fully manned and brought everything they had, u can read yourself that u.n security report regarding sland bringing everything it could to puntland but we still defeated them. Read below
http://www.un-somalia.org/docs/N0524088_s_2005_89.pdfThat will prove that when puntland is united and one ppl that we can never be defeated. But when we start separating and focusing our attention on hamar the snm can defeat us. So we are untouchable if we are united and it is in our best interest.
Lastly Puntland has won the support of e.u, america in development and security areas and foreign policy also. Today Puntland is the friend and allies of the world. The Puntland administration has also begun ties with nato in intelligence sharing and other areas.
Any past wrongs that occurred in the past, occured and we can not change that. Cade muse did some bad things in relation to some of our brothers, but the puntland community spoke and didn't elect him and he stepped down without a fight, because this is our culture.
We have future oil sector developing, where 3 multi-national companies have invested $100 million so far in oil exploration, taipan financial news experts have said the prospects of puntland oil is comparable to yemen and saudi arabia because it shared the same landscape. Range resources is now foccusing on the off-shore oil which seismic studies have begun already and has proven to show that puntland seafloor shares similar topography of gulf of mexico. We all know how much oil gulf of mexico produces. ALOT.
Farole has been doing security crack downs over puntland and arresting dozens of pirates, thugs, etc. Retaking puntland back into the right image it is. It is stopping the human trafficking by starting workshops for the idps and providing welfare services for them.
The roads are recieving huge upgrades and safety signs and other measures are starting in the regions. Farole also won project from Fai International where two regional airports are being built, a bossaso to erigavo highway, and feeder roads into remote regions of bari and sanaag. FAI international was previous company before the war who was to do work in puntland before the civil war. Now that italy has started former diplomatic ties, farole taken advantage of it and asked prime minister of the tfg to speak to fai international regarding starting those back up.
Lootah firm invested $45 million under cade muse rule into the airport and port to make them the most modern and advanced in the horn. The airport will have 3.4 km tarmac, terminal, duty free shops, aero facilities so night time flights can occur, taxi rank, and other logistics. They also turning bossaso port into the size of djibouti and setting up port facility and free trade zone in modern port headquarter.
Now i know u might say why isnt bosasso airport finished. Well the reason is because farole has put on hold all projects under cade muse for reviews. But they are not stopped forever, but just under review. The agreement that was signed, was signed and must continue regardless how many reviews farole wants to do. U can verify that here
http://www.ameinfo.com/176786.htmlLastly Puntland 5 year development plan policy from the period of 2007-2013 is to massively reform many areas, like good governance, multi party democracy, anti corruption commissioners, and health and education advancements.
We are setting up for the future. Puntland has the most strategic location in east africa because we sit on the gates of the gulf of aden and indian ocean. If any ship coming from the indian ocean wants to enter the gulf of aden they must pass by puntland and yemen ports first. That is what makes our region so strategic because 122 000 thousands ships pass by our shores making it the biggest shipping lane in the world. And we are the gate openers of the gulf aden because we sit on the rich side of the indian ocean where all ships from europe,asia, america come from using indian ocean and passing puntland and yemen port first.
Noone else in africa has this strategic monopoly. Except egypt because they sit on the gate of the mediterreanean and are the first port on the gulf of aden for any ship coming from the mediterrenean. But all the states that sit on the gulf of aden like djibouti, sland, saudi, etc. They don't possess that strategic location because they are not gate openers of the passage way. If any ship wants to sail thru gulf of aden they must first get past us because we the gate openers. If they dont get past us, they cant enter the gulf of aden. Where-as the regions that sit in the middle they dont have that location of opening the gates for ships like we do.
That is why Puntland strategic location is unmatched. Strategic location that can be used to get further funds from the international community and foreign investments. Oil in our sea and land. Livestock trade that is bustling and we do have the most livestocks out of all somalis. I have verified that on the food agencies website. Plus our fishery sector which can be used to sell to the international community.
Inshallah in the future we can use the revenues from our oil and support from the e.u and the white house to further create other sectors like tourism of our coast and financial capital city of the horn in bossaso. Bossaso is the only city with the most $$$, no other regions does as much business as that place. That is solid fact.
Marka can u please stop dividing puntland we both need each other for the sakes of our ppl advancement. The past wrongs that were done, have been done and the person who done them has been removed and his name has been stained forever. Puntland fixed that issue of mj's ruling by installing multi-party democracy so tribe doesn't become relevant but policies become relevant. Everyone will vote for the man who has the best policy for the region.
Makhir political party already started in Bossaso and celebrations were held and everyone from nugal, bari, mudug, sanaag were there to celebrate with them.
Anyways my final point is. Don't give up on Puntland, we are the only true hope where we can show real world evidence of ppl investing in our region, our leaders doing something for the region and the world supports us also as far as the e.u and america is concerned.
So get behind puntland, fuck qabil shit...where ur qabil hat outside of your home...i dont bring qabil inside my home to my family...but when i go outside i wear my qabil hat and meet other somalis. I suggest the same occurs for our warsangeli brothers. Noone wins by separation. Puntland will lose, Warsangeli will lose...noone wins at the end of the day. The best solution is cooperation. Where else do u see military general like cade muse stand down from power without a fight when he was elected out. U dont see that anywhere. Look at rayale 4 times already postponed the elections, bribed the guurti, and all sorts of mess.
Cade muse might of been a military minded man but he knew that the culture of bari is to respect the voice of the ppl. He step down without a fight and educated person was elected. We got sick of military leader. That is probably why ilkajir lost, not because he is not mj but because we dont want to see two miltary leaders after another. We want educated ppl for a change, which no somalis have ever had.
So support puntland and stop this "makhir mentality" that u will succeed on ur own, noone can succeed on their own in this globalized world we all must cooperate.
Tudos and that is my comments from a genuine person who cares for ppl of puntland be it warsangeli, dhulos, mj, or any-one else in the region.
