An Exciting New Business Just Opened in Mogdishu

[Colonelcfs]

Do you mean manufacturing drugs or researching and creating new drugs?

Both are incrediblely difficult, but definitely forget about the latter in Somalia ( zero expertise and no money) .

With manufacturers drugs you need really high standards of quality control and a very good understanding of chemistry.

One simple mistake or just laziness/callousness could literally kill or make sick thousands of people in Somalia

It’s not that hard to make generic drugs no one will die from having too much or too little paracetamol it’s just that it’s probably cheaper to bring it in form abroad atm plus the imported stuff is probbaly not great quality

we could follow the US standards of quality control and follow the CDCs advice on a lot of the things. We could pay a membership fee to join the Royal Society of Chemistry to join pharmacies and factories around the world and get networking opportunities. Economy wise it would open up a lot of jobs for those coming out of universities in Somalis that are studying chemical related sciences.

Also its not one simple mistake. In Chemistry you can afford to make mistakes so long as the yield at the end comes out relatively pure [we would test using a spectrometer or titrations for precision].

the main problem is factory/plant building on a large scale considering the country is unsafe. Why build sophisticated and extremely expensive equipments when T groups like AS are breathing down our throats in the south. Also maintenance is needed, this is where engineers come in.

right now there are no factories like this and all of the somali “pharmaceutical” companies are businesses which work to move european/turkish medicine in bulk to distribute at inflated prices.

we would also need backing and funding from the government itself to make sure medicine is free for all or at an insanely reduced rate. We could distribute this to local hospitals and in turn we could be the very foundation to future free healthcare. We could then expand out into African nations and become the next Pfizer or Astrazeneca within the continent.

this is what I hope for and is partly the reason why I want to switch to a chemical engineering degree this year.

Who knows, maybe we could even find the cure to cancer if we advanced enough
