I thought everyone one here was somali.
I thought so too but there are non Somalis lurking too.

The next 5 yearsare crucial, the next president has to work 100 × harder than any president before him including pre war presidents. He'll have to build the capacity of all Somalis in a meaningful way. If the next leader does this they'll destroy Shabaab without firing a bullet and they'll end the migrant crisis too, saving many lives.
There's supposedly a cuban who is stuck in a time warp of the somalia-ethiopian war who hangs out around here.
I just learned AS is nine thousand strong, who let this happen? 
In sha Allah very soon, when there's a will then there's a way.
Neighbour?

Yes. It can only go upwards from here. Somalis are tired and want their country to work. I know plenty of people who are considering moving back and opening up something or contributing to the rebuilding of our country.
Not only do I believe a functioning state is within our grasp, I believe with the right institutions and policies we can have a Somali economic miracle and reach upper middle income status in a generation.
The growth of a robust private sector since 1991 is one of the few positives of the civil war. I can see companies like Dahabshiil and Hormuud and other domestic companies dominating the Horn and even Africa as long as we provide the platform for Somalis to make use of their natural entrepreneurial spirit.
Long gone are the days the only job you'll find is in the public sector like in the rest of the third world. Ethiopia for example is basically a Marxist state where all the land belongs to the government and state owned monopolies can produce inferior products and charge whatever they want with absolute impunity.
Long live commerce.
Capitalism will set us free.

Do you genuinely believe SL will get recognition? If so, when do you think it will happen?
Corruption and qabyaalad are the biggest obstacle to Somalia's path to prosperity. If Somalia can overcome these hurdles, then we'll hopefully see Somalia emerge as major African power again.

Allah knows if Somaliland will get recognition or not. but there will be no union with Somalia
