Sxb you dont understand it. this project has geopolitics and geoeconomic advantages, both badly needed by sland.Now this is one genuine project, I do not want to see replicated in Puntland. You can keep that and become arabsom. Puntland must remain free military from anyone who isn't a local. No debate no Project no Sheeko on that.
Actually UAE funds PL maritime cost guard and already took over bosaso port. kuwait built the airport also. arabs will always excercise great influence in the horn.

There isn't going to be a proxy war happening in my soil, sxb. You can be the playground of the arabs. Not to mention, look at all the military bases they dont bring any economic advantage, look at djibouti, it's hardly benefited economically from it. The only economy that prospers in military bases is prostitution as that's what they want soldiers. Soldiers won't build houses or create businesses. All their accomodation is provided on the base, all their food sourced from their countries. The only thing they want is local women.
Sorry but this sort of project would never ever be possible in Puntland as the people wouldn't allow foreign soldiers on their soil. I hope the best for you on that.
Funny thing is, it was sharmarke who signed off this project for somaliland. He wouldn't give such a project to Puntland cause he knows it's impossible to sell.

kkkk now no one mentioned your state so stop polluting the thread
my bad, I hate polluting threads. But this is one project I am more then happy for Somaliland. We will send a lessons learned fact finding team to Somaliland in the future to see the side effects this created. Thanks for taking the brave step!!!!
At the end of the day benefit outweigh the downside, you'd be a damn fool to miss this opportunity and make enemies out of the Gulf. Say what you want about Djibouti, it remains the most prosperous and stable Somali entity in Geeska Afrika, and has benefited handsomely from DP world venture as well as number of military bases stationed within the country. Its common sense no need to think about it.
Tbh, I never was a fan of the base; but we have to make do with it now.
Besides, this base may mitigate/equalise Ethiopia's influence on Somaliland's affairs.
The military base comes with $ billion dollar package and a set of beneficial agreements.

It has geopolitics advantage and like u said it will deter both somaia and ethiopias influence.
Also it further creates stability which is good for FDI and investors confidence. as DP world agreement had a clause that if both sides come to disagreement they will settle in london arbitrary court, this is what gives foreign business confidence to invest without risk.
Insha allah We gonna eat good
How is a court in london going to enforce laws outside it's own borders? do they have court officials in somalia? how can any1 deter somalia influence? it was the somali govt who did the deal, somaliland was only there for 'ceremonial' purposes, everyone knows it was done by sharmarke. Besides that's SFG property, it wasn't exactly built by somaliland. It was given to all somalis under somali name. Anyways like I said I am happy there is going to be a base in somaliland, cause I surely don't want it for my region.
Some info about the London Court of International Arbitration:
The LCIA is one of the world’s leading international institutions for commercial dispute resolution. The LCIA provides efficient, flexible and impartial administration of arbitration and other ADR proceedings, regardless of location, and under any system of law. The international nature of the LCIA’s services is reflected in the fact that, typically, over 80% of parties in pending LCIA cases are not of English nationality.
The LCIA has access to the most eminent and experienced arbitrators, mediators and experts from many jurisdictions, and with the widest range of expertise. The LCIA's dispute resolution services are available to all contracting parties, without any membership requirements.
http://www.lcia.org/LCIA/introduction.aspx
oday, commercial dispute resolution? where does this say it's enforceable law? do you know what dispute resolution means? it is just bringing two parties together and mediating between them but nothing is enforceable since they simply have no jurisdiction.
The LCIA is not linked to, or associated with, the government of any jurisdiction. It is a private, not-for-profit company, limited by guarantee and is entirely neutral and independent of any other organisation.
Arbitration and ADR are consensual processes. If one party wishes to refer a dispute to the LCIA, but the other does not, the LCIA has no jurisdiction to determine the dispute.
