they have a deal with the government so makes sense tbhCan’t lie I find it hilarious that China complained to the UN about the rights of Somali fishermen being exploited by foreign fishing vessels.

The arms embargo shouldn't be lifted, Farmaajo's workers like Zakariye Xaaji have brought in drones to assassinate Puntite leaders and others who stand in the way of this expired regime. Thankfully this plan of theirs was foiled, but they will not stop until they secure his 2nd term.
You really think your holy Puntite leaders aren't complicit in this matter, give me a f**king break man.You are conflating illegal fishing with the deal Farmaajo's government has signed with China.

UAEs “central” government is a council of the leaders of every Emirate(state). This is a prime example of a federation and they were able to hedge their superior system and now colonize the horn of Africa.UAE isn't a loose federal system sure every emirate has its own local policy but in security economy and foreign policies is handled by the central govt with the offices of presidency and vice presidency and commander of armed forces always at the hands of Emirs of Abu Dhabi
A chicken and egg scenario conundrum perhaps. Does Somalia need a powerful central government first to no longer be under an arms embargo afterwards or is it the other way round. Personally we can have a strong enough federal government without needing the lifting of this arms embargo if we copied the UAE model of loose federalism with state rulers collectively running the whole country at the federal level

Never said it was a perfect match but its close to our needs. The federal government for them isnt a foreign opposing entity to the states but rather the collective of the states.Somalia cannot have a UAE type federation.
Only USA or Australia style will work.
Suggesting the UAE as a role model is laughable at best.

We have states because we dont trust each other(for good reason), we should have as much of a trustless system as possible.

I hope we can finally stop talking about UAE type federalism and confederalism and realise Somalia won’t develop until qabiilism ends.
Either that or import 10 million foreigners and force Somalis to work together.
@Periplus if you was to have a "normal" type of federalism like Australia or America whereby the country is ruled by just one single person eg Scott Morrison or Joe Biden respectively then you'll find clans/subclans fight one another to install one of their own members to become that one ruler. This is why I support a collective body ruling Somalia jointly
