Tbh it’s the only reason Hobyo is know as it is

There can't be one positive Hawiye thread without it being derailed, cuqdad ridden folk

 

[Cumar]

Berbera is ahead of Bosaaso?

 

[La Xawla]

Do you have any recent data? Alot has changed since then

 

[Cumar]

@Suhaib @Farm Equipment

Hobyo will be competing with Bosaaso which already dominates on trade from DDSI and Eastern Sool and Sanaag. It has a long head start. Will be interesting to see what happens there.

No, If I find anything more recent I will post it.

You forget that Garacad port will be built soon, Hobyo doesn’t stand a chance.

Hobyo is infested with Al Shabab, Garacad is also better positioned not much of a contest.

That’s sad. I’ve had big hopes on Hobyo making a return. Security is going to be critical

Bro don't listen to this derailing hater, just watch and see

That is true, if you guys build Garacad first, Hobyo is dead in the water. First to market always wins.

How does Bosaso dominate when Berbera is closer? Is it because of the tax margin differences?

I meant that Bosaaso already gets almost all the traffic coming from from Eastern DDSI and SSC. Places like Wardheer which is very far from Berbera and closer to Bosaaso export at Bosaaso.

My point is Bosaaso already gets this traffic so a hypothetical Hobyo port would be fighting for scraps. There is only so much livestock that can be exported. I wasn't really talking about Berbera as the traffic handled at Berbera is order of magnitudes higher than Bosaaso.

 

[Suhaib]

Instead of praise for the development of Somali lands or simply just scrolling by, niggas get absolutely butthurt and shit all over the thread

 

[Saahid Qamaan]

Cumar that is what I said. Some of the Somalis sometimes chose Berbera like in Ethiopia or other regions because they did not like Bosaso.

Bosaso has better access due to the road coming from south.

The animal trade for example as Saudi Arabia allowed Somali livestock again Berbera had animals coming from vast regions not only Somaliland livestock.

Port isn't just about catering foreign clients such as those in DDS, but its about being independent from other neighbouring ports, if hobyo is build all of the deegans in Galmudug and Hiirshabelle will use it, thus cutting the Bosasso port, and also the one thing not mentioned is importing weapons and other neccasry things a state needs through Hobyo port.

Hobyo port trully is a game changer regardless garacaad is build, politically puntland is at loss here especialy the Cali salebaans in bosaso, i sense a future revolt in Bosaso.

 

[Hassan Garguute Buldanana]

Stop derailing pls, this isn't a fkd thread

Everyone knows that it will be a game changer once the port is build, Galmudug will truly have established itself as an functioning state that can guard its territorial rights and satisfy the disenfranchised citizens of northern Mudug.

Whole of Mudug is what our Galmudug constitution states, hopefully with the port we will see the realisation of that goal.

A state can only succeed if it has a continuous source of cash-flow, and that is the ports.

How can you say that while u gave a thumbs up to this?
