That would cement our autonomy. We already print our own Somali shillings ( the Somali shilling used in the south is not the same as the one in Puntland), why not make our own currency. We have a central bank.
Iβve heard they use dollar now for snall transactions with mobile phones. It wasnβt possible to pay for small stuff with dollars because we didnβt have cents only 1 dollar was the smallest unit.
Anyway I was there in 2028 and the dollar got very strong, people in some places rioted.

That's good to hear.Puntland prints its own Somali shilling which used to be used in parts of Galmudug. Three years ago we stopped using Puntland shilling because Mjs were just printing it and then taking our dollars.
Now in Galmudug we only use Hormuuud EVC plus and everything is done through mobile bacnking with dollar currency. A lot of people are suffering but it is better than using the Puntland shilling.
That's good to hear.
