Somaliland Architecture

[CoolPoisons]

these are barby houses and look fake. 1 strong wind and they will collapse.

somalis should invest how to build houses like in the west.

Orodoo soo qoyso

The houses in the west are built on loox(wood), in somaliland they are build on Jaajur(Dhagax). Not in 100 Million Years will wind destroy those houses.

Locals can't afford these handful houses - Weey dhaqaaqday

[Cali_Gaab]

i wanna save up to buy a house in Hargeisa, but lookin' at the current homes...i don't like the way they build them. i'm gonna build one from scratch and make sure it has a very lush lawn and a garden in the backyard. i don't see any homes with lawns thus far...inshallah, my home will be the first.

badca caas area in hargeisa has some real nice houses. My uncle owns Lucky star constructions in hargeisa. The UK were funding a new jail in hargeisa, he got the contract and the govt told him to double his estimates in order extract more money from the UK, his morals didnt allow him to do that and they took the contract from him.

Do you know what people that work for Somali NGO's do..

For Example a guy working for UN in Somalia is ordered to buy 10 Jeeps.

He goes to the place to buy them, buys them for lets say 150.000$ but then asks the guy for an invoice stating he bought them for 200.000$ and the bastard keeps the 50.000$ for himself..

Happens a lot within Somali NGOs

i don't think there will be water shortage. the arabs have found a way to water their lawns in the dessert and they don't have the luxury of "wasting" water. ever heard of "desalination" most of the world get their drinking water from this process seen as how only 1% of earth's water is freshwater.

if Dubai can do this...so can we.

[dawwa9]

In Dubai they use filtered sea water (with no salt anymore) which takes a lot of energy to do it (oil)

Two things Hargeisa doesn't have:

-Oil
-Sea water

Maybe its good for cities like Djibouti, Berbera and Bosaso

well the state of Navada has neither and they still manage to bring in the water...point is, Nevada is part of the US..and the US has cities with "oil" and "seawater". i hope u get my drift.

Nevada is in the rich USA, they use aquifers (underground lakes, google it) which will even cost more money than using desalinated sea water..

Hargeisa is doomed, already more people than water

In Bosaso you can already use desalinated sea water






^^Driest place in Somalia
