Barawe Port Deal

[Hilmaam]

I also looked into the DP world port deal with Bosaso and Berbera. I never looked into it far too much on the Berbera side of things of what the deal entails, because i assumed it would be like Bosaso where local government has full ownership at 100% and uses mostly it's own work force pulled from the locals in hiring for port operations, expansion, and logistics.

But in Bebera, DP world Dubai are bringing their own workers and not even creating job oppurtunities for people in Berbera. Since DP World owns 51% of Berbera port, they control hiring decisions. Many high-paying management and technical jobs are given to foreign staff (from UAE, India, and elsewhere), not Somalis.

Some reports suggest that even basic port jobs are outsourced rather than fully staffed by locals.

90 % of the port revenue in Bosaso goes straight to the government's budget because they have full ownership of the port.

SL actually traded part of it's ownership in a bid to secure recognition , waa wax yab leh.

Luckily Berbera's situation can actually be reversed , it was under weak terms that can be re-negotiated. DP World has lost port contracts in Djibouti and other countries due to unfair terms. If Somaliland unites politically on this issue, DP World will be forced to listen.

Mogadishu port same way managed by Turks . Who play with book keeping they can keep raising expenses to pay themselves then share profits with fgs

I'm not well versed on our government so forgive me for being uneducated. If the FGD hasn't approved it, then this deal can't go through right?

Abiye ahmed like everyone gets somalia ports but me

It's really dumb. Ethiopia is desperate for port access. We could have at least made solid money from them by dangling it over their heads if we had a stronger government.

There needs to be financial transparency in everything. There needs be an independent Somali authority that audits to prevent corruption. The management contracts should only be short term (5-10) .

I will look into Mogadishu.

I’m not mistaking anything sxb miskeen tuuni’s got xasuuqed by HG. You think they occupy some of that land by being friendly and kind. It was a xaasid time that is behind us. HG and tuuni have found a way to accept one another.
