A slap in the face for Somaliland: Saudi Arabia starts importing Ethiopian cattle

[Apollo]

Isn't trading with Turkey an option? But I think Turkey has a tougher safety regulations than the sand . There's a reason why only Arabs take our cattle.

The yurt are in the European Customs Union.

Yea, if you have access to the Turkish market you basically have access to the EU market. If Somalis played smart they could have access to the biggest market in world

 

[Prince Abubu]

...or...you know...you could just diversify your clientele and not rely on livestock as your primary industry?

 

[captain mali]

Somalia has no proven oil.

Topic has nothing to do with SL Duke couldn't help but to slap SL into the headline

Where the dafuq have u been in the last 5 years? Of course somalia has oil. Why do you think America is in somalia? Oooh yeah to fight terrorism that they are funding, also to give people some "freedom"

Or not export >70% of our livestock toa single country. We can slaughter and freeze meat and export it like Brazil. It would earn us double the money, and we could have a leather industry.

US are following their interest in making Somalia a vessel state under its empire.US meddling in other countries affairs is nothing new and has been going on since 18th century. It went into over-drove post WW2 and decline of British Empire . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_United_States_foreign_policy

There is NO proven oil reserves in Somalia, those how speculate and foresee oil boom in Somalia are overly optimistic and naive usually driven by conspiracy theories.

Bruv its economically wiser exporting to the Middle East specially SA, loosing this market will severely damage our already crappy economy, where are we gonna get half a billion dollar customer so quickly.

What's happening here is that we're loosing a market that was ours to our African neighbors who were always eager to enter the Middle East market.

Those sand niggaz are the only fukers splashing money around, try exporting to the EU or broke ass Asia and see the end result.

Ethiopia was planning for past 2 years to steal Somali clients and business, especially the Saudi markets. First step was banning Somali livestock, which happened because of dirty trick (corrupted employee in Mogadishu port) who added sick animals among the healthy stock. I made old thread about this last year. And you can read about Ethiopia 'S plans in this account.

Isn't Ethiopia's land too mountainous for large scale livestock raising? Won't all those cows just fall off giant cliffs all the time

They used the Somali region. If you listened to PM of Ethiopia 'S meeting go universal TV you would know their plans for the region.

 

[Canuck]

we do face Asia, there is the Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, much more, we should trade with countries with minimal Arab influence. You should never shit where you eat and in this case don't trade with nations that don't follow your foreign policy.

Ethiopia will go after them also, you don't get they are controlling north through these fake regional governors.

 

[Rooble]

@Canuck so they are using Somali livestock from Somali Galbeed?

 

[Canuck]

However other lessons to SL and team mama Ethiopia. Your mother is stealing you.

 

[Rooble]

This is very damaging. Somalilands lifeline is basically selling livestock etc.

I don't think Asia is an option, because they're looking for new markets to export their products to. They hardly import stuff and EU is out of our league, we would never fulfill their safety requirements. Somalia has a one of a kind relationship with Turkey, a meat loving nation of 80+ million and above all an EUCU member. Instead of seeing them as a cash cow, why not foster economic ties? They can begin with smaller, less risky products like the Myrrh and fruits, and move their way up to the meat market.

The sand always pull these kind of shenanigans. They will put an embargo on our livestock, only to lift it few weeks before Hajj. In order for other African nation to compete with our livestock, they will need a lot of investment pumped into their cattle. Ours cattle growth is quite natural and organic, and not artificial. It is a sad development for the average nomad.

What you are thinking about is the Amhara highlands where thousands of years of agriculture has totally eroded the plateau. Most of Oromia and SNNP is undulating hill-land that is perfectly good for growing animals.

Bale the most mountainous region in all of Oromia looks mostly like this

Arsi the second most mountainous region in Oromia mostly looks like this

The highlands in the North are still green, they're just never shown in rainy season.

Will turkey buy our livestock the way the arabs do? I highly doubt it, I know these fat arabs are piss takers but turning to the Turks doesn't really solve our problem, and keep in mind wen u lose the Saudi market, u also lose all her allies which a not in our interest.

Sometimes you have to swallow your pride.

Do you really think cattle and sheep can only be reared in the desert? LOL

You're a conspiracy NUT, you really do think Ethiopia is the boogeyman. You can't just admit that maybe it's your fault for your failings? Maybe the livestock didn't get proper care like they need?

I would love to tell all my somali brothers and sisters, not all isaaq people support SOMALILAND. We have had for a long time had a dictator and would love to change leadership and be one with THE GREATER SOMALIA. PEACE AND LOVE TO ALL SOMALI PEOPLE.
