don't be another somali racist

Its good to see people getting out of their comfort zone and investing.

 

[المهندس]

Diaspora somalis should use him as inspiration and invest in their homeland.

It'd be nice if Somalis would also do this, wish the man the best and hope he employs some locals and treat them decently

 

[Caaro]

What we need is a textile factory that mass produces cheap, durable and fashionable clothes.

That way we won’t have to see everyone wearing raggedy clothes that are too small for them. I swear if I see one more skinny jean that’s 5 inches above the ankle and a wrinkly polo shirt in somalia

I swear they only ever buy jeans and polo shirts. It’s the most durable clothing, they’ll wear those same blue jeans for years until it turns white and shrinks up to their knees

Not sure where the notion of Somali diaspora don't invest comes from. We literally do. My friend who just got back told me he saw so many somali americans living in mogadishu some visting doing their own thing in the city. Just because an Ajinabi does it don't mean we don't. We literally rebuilt every building that was bombed.

Southall wasn't enough for them, so its time for Mogadishu
Business mindset we all need to have

Mogadishu makes sense cause they use U.S. Dollars and not the Somali currency.

I am well aware of what diaspora somalis have done, though dont get it over your head and think we are the sole saviors of the place, that'll lead to an inferiority complex

Indeed, they are able to make both Pounds and Dollars. They usually start at UK then expand to whatever country they want to

We the diaspora send $2billion a year. Yes we can say we saved Somalia from further famines and other bullshits.

I dont want to be a downer, the money is definitely beneficial for the people but the 2 billion remittances is most likely a factor on why many of our people back home are lazy and spend money on khat and other things we as a community can do without, good comes with bad.

Business should be welcomed

Pakis are mostly in jaajus business.They lead in this sector.

 

[Basic]

Adeer was blunt af “what are you doing here?”

 

[HiraanBorn]

Adeer was blunt af “what are you doing here?”

He's asking the real questions warya, those Pakis are into the extortion business here in the Uk. Reer Uk know these people well enough.

 

[Geelraac]

Useless, i hope he switches businesses cause no one needs bespoke clothes in hot wather of Somalia

 

[SOMALIKNIGHT]

Mashallah I hope Somalia gets a lot of Pakistanis and all other Muslims to move there. There are no borders and nationalism in Islam. This is his country as well
