No marti will belong in a place more than where someone hails from, Puntites as a dowlad are fair but by no means as a clan we disregard tribal land/kinsmen, push your luck and find out the hard way.
The new reality is if a Somali lived in Puntland for 10 years he's no longer marti but a Puntlander and majority of people back home don't mind that.
You are correct and neither do I as a diaspora mind it as long as they are law abiding citizens, keep in mind however that Puntland is built on tribal land. I'm honoured that you think so well of us that we'll disregard lineage based on residencyThe new reality is if a Somali lived in Puntland for 10 years he's no longer marti but a Puntlander and majority of people back home don't mind that.
Nonsense, our culture is built on warring with neighbours over grazing lands and water wellsOur culture is built on the freedom of movement as nomads
I understand your first point, the second is a tad bit harsh, I just imagined the western country I reside in telling me to pack up and go home because Somalia now has a "Government".We had enuff of isaaqs sending ethiopians into Bosaso. Yemenis coming across the red sea. South west on a south to north expansion while our own poor people are neglected. I don't see these ppl doing the same for puntites.
It's time to begin talks with SW n PL and discuss when these people can return to baydhabo safely and peacefully, there is a government there now unlike before.
Actually, a large percentage of Shabab terror attacks against PL have been carried out by them. I'd even say most terror attacks are by them. When you put Somalis of different clans in the same area they will eventually fight one another for land, resources, and political power. It is as clear as day light no matter how much you try to deny it. That is some of the reasons why it is a bad and dangerous idea. I'm not being hateful, I'm just a realist.
And how the hell can PL vet unlimited numbers of people coming from other regions? It is not like PL is a first world country with lots of money and technology to vet them all. Even America experiences difficulty in vetting people. It is better not to take any chances.
And I've noticed you had a weak come back on the af maay issue that I raised. That their primary language is untelligible to ours when you said we have same language.

All existing 10+ years IDPs shall remain, close the borders for the rest

If that's the case, do you think MJs in Xamar should return to PL?
Or should this policy only be limited to "weaker" clans.
Mj's don't live in tent camps in banadir, they don't suck local resources and redirect it to PL. My awoowe said 'meesha aad ka shaqayso waa inaad guri ka iibsata ama ka soo tag' either join the community or piss off.
We don't see MJ'S taking banadir aid money by living in tents so they can sell a 'poor image' to the UN so they get a monthly allowance. South west is a government waryaa, it needs to begin taking it's people back and stop using them as trojan horse across somalia and as way to push off their 'burden' onto others.
Starts with with this and next you see them running for presidency. When will reer baidoa elect a Puntlander into their government? When will they allow puntlanders to buy farms in "baidoa jannah".
Mortified!
Make Puntland Great Again.
Ideally, every maamul goboleed should do this for one another. This will be the cure to qabiilism if we see each other as neighbours rather than people from distant regions.
Puntland is taking the moral high ground on this and setting an example for the rest of Somalia.
Puntites should be proud of this.
As @Yusuf M said we are proud of each other when we don't live together. Look how dysfunctional the Somali diaspora are in the west because it's mixed up that's why. But look at Zambia for example and how strong that diaspora works because it's mainly one clan. I would urge Somalis never live near each other, it's in your best interest and u perform better with your own clans-men. Once we begin mixing together, it leads to conflict which is exactly what we are trying to stop. Me and Yusuf want to prevent conflict, we are not qabilist at all, but REALIST.
I would prefer to visit the south west and other parts of Somalia as a visitor and see how they're progressing, then I'll be happy for them becuz they're helping themselves in their own land not living far away in someone else land.
Run and win an election no one or clan is in your way. Puntland has moved beyond qabil and they could care less.This will backfire for you back breaking puntites. Expect a whole lot of them idp f*ck*rs demanding political representation.
