A famine will hit the Somali region as the sea surface temperature shows that rain-fall will be below average.

Horta what i don't understand is the fact that we have the second largest coastline in Africa yet Somalis are dying of starvation. why not abandon the shitty nomadic life altogether and move near the sea.
fish is not scarce, and you don't need an education to fish. unless qabiil plays into this and people don't want other qabiils in their territory, then i dont see a problem. there's a bloody drought every few years, yet no one is using their common sense. nomadic lifestyle in this day and age is just a disaster waiting to happen. they just need to think outside the box. we might not have fertile land but we have an entire sea full of untouched fish. most countries would kill for our coastline and their people would never starve, yet here we are every two years.The people have no formal education, they exists in a world devoid of compassion and curiosity and therefore have to rely on what their communities tell them. Hence why qabil is a problem with scare ressources

well that 3% got the right idea because they'll never go hungry. Somalis definitely lack initiative which is why this saga keeps repeating.We depend too much on live-stock and only 3 % depend on fish
We should move from it though but that requires techonology and moving from once secure communties

instead of scrambling to raise funds for the victims every year, we need to literally teach them how to fish.

Initially, the road that connects Gaalkacyo to Bosaso was meant to be build few miles of the coast, but the clans that lived there refused because they were afraid that clans that border them on the west would grab their lands, so they chose Galkayo-Bosaso is for strategic reasons. Had the road been few miles of the coast, many people would have been into fishery and abandon nomadic lifestyle.

what are you on about?It seems crazy to us but when you have been trough war where only your sub-sub-sub clan can be trusted and you never had a good interaction with government in 30 years, it is understandable
Somalia needs healing and competent governance first and foremost

what are you on about?
theres absolutely no excuse whatsoever, had they agreed to the road some people wouldnt be starving today. that shit is on them.
lets stop blaming everything on the fucking war. they did it out of spite and hate and these sick fuckers will pay one day.
The useful coast in Somalia is actually much less than you think. The coast north of Garacad in Mudug becomes mountainous and difficult to develop. This remains so until you reach Berbera. The coastal communities in those regions are largely cut off from the rest of the country, there are no roads.

lack of empathy kulahaYour lack of empathy is stunning.
These people are uneducated and many only know war and surpression, they have not been taught right from wrong but instead been told to justify it.
In that context it makes sense, because you'd never had to rely on your clan for survival but they had to, and allowing the road may have meant another clan could subject them
let them starve then.Somalis look down on fish. I remember seeing people plugging their noses when they'd see cooked fish.
lack of empathy kulaha
naya/warya you are the one without empathy. there's no excuse that can justify letting your brothers and sisters starve just cos you feared another qabiil will take over your land.
how would letting poor reer badiyo having access to the sea cause them to be subjugated?
i cant. i'm not blinded by qabyaalad, i would rather have my town overtaken by another qabiil than have the death of thousands of families on my conscience.Look at it from there prospective and work from there
You're telling me they'd rather eat disgusting US AID food rations than fresh fish?Somalis look down on fish. I remember seeing people plugging their noses when they'd see cooked fish.
