Reer Nugaal Puntland Businesswoman complaining about Reer SWS and ask Puntland government to deal with them.


Seems like Puntland is following the same path as Laascaanood and Somaliland. Just before Reer SWS were deported from Somaliland and Laascaanood there were businessmen that were complaining about the "RRA" and saying they have taken over the small business in the region and there is no space for the natives.

However I think better of the leaders of Puntland and believe they are more forward thinking then Somaliland when it comes to this issue. Hopefully this issue can be resolved in a better way then the catestrophic event that took place in Laascaanood by the Somaliland administration in 2021 where they accused innocent Raxanweyn civilians of being AS and therefore mass deported them. I don't think Reer Puntland and their leadership would act in that disgusting way.
 
But if anyone who is more well informed can tell me why this issue is reoccurring in Somalia. This isnt the first time people have complained about Reer SWS dominating the markets and small businesses in regions like somaliland, Galmudug and Puntland.

Is it just xaasidnimo that Reer SWS are just better businessmen then others or are they actually doing something wrong.

Because all I see is that these Reer SWS saw a gap in the market that these other regions when it comes to small businesses and they came in and profitted from it. Now the natives are just unhappy they are taking over that sector. But they done it fair and square.
 
Puntland allows for Somalis from all corners to come and find employment, however the government should protect native interests and ensure both sides are able to build livelihoods and provide for their families.

But how would that be the case in this scenario. The Reer SWS business men technically haven't done anything wrong. Is their business doing well and flourishing a crime of some sort?

Seems like the woman is complaining about the SWS fellows undercutting the competition, and yes they are prone to that but it’s nothing a little bit of regulation from the ministry of commerce can’t solve.

undercutting or scalping the market or doing the opposite such as selling at extortionate rates is bound to get you into hot water with local competitors

There are thousands of Oromos in PL especially Bosaso, instead of focusing on our fellow Somalis they should deport those scum.

I will tell reer nugaaleed which is my region this rahanwayne business people is a good thing, it exerts pressures and will result in forcing innovative thinking upon puntites to advance from petty bagaash trade shop front and develop other businesses with more skills involved.

I see this as a guul what about you puntitequeen we need to migrate away from these shopfronts from 100 years ago like whites did for foreigners in their countries. I'm sure this will pressure puntites into more skilled business models.

We need to beat Somalia by doing businesses that require high skills which they don't have and let them remain in outdated century old professions. As president of Puntland I would send fact finding mission to find out what Somalis and Africans import from overseas and set up those businesses in PL, it will be our own market space 😁

Puntitequeen I'm shocked sometimes at Puntland they don't do business the right way, in real business U need competitive edge which means diversify not copy as that means competition or repeat ancient business models.

U need to fill gaps, create new spaces for our people to serve with as least amount competition or identify areas of supply chain. You do this by seeing every country and within your country baahi by seeing what they Import and U then go home and educate your investors to address those gaps in your homeland.

I can't wait till these infrastructure project era ends and real market development politics begins between our parties as they present their industrial park plans, telling us what items value they are, market space to serve, how many more puntites will be employed. But no we need to waste time in federal baan raba Iyo ma rabno politics with Hamar who is holding us back.

A good guest always knows when they've over stayed their welcome. It's just human nature to oppose large hordes of invaders moving into your region. A few business people is ok, but IDP camps everywhere in PL is madness.

Imagine a guy from Miami florida complaining about the Minnisotans being in Florida.

This woman should be arrested.
Why should someone expressing their opinion in their own land about problems caused by non native people in PL be arrested?

Threatening citizens with violence is expressing opinion to you? What kind of cawaanimo mentality is this?

Yes, Oromo should be first in land to get deported. But I want reer kunfur to also go. At least most of them. We don't share same culture and language/dialect with them. My God, af Eelay sounds almost af Ethiopian to me. I don't hate anyone. But putting clans in the same location is a time bomb waiting to happen.

It's not cawaanimo, it's a legitimate concern these local people have. They're pissed because of year and years of PL government neglecting locals. For example, PL government has been for years building houses for kunfur people in Garowe and Bosaso, meanwhile coastal communities whose houses and businesses were destroyed in the 2004 Indian ocean tsunami haven't received much help from their government.

It is savagery when you threaten with violence when it is not going great for you or the politicians fkced you up. Stop excusing violence against civilians

Puntite already naturally compete against each other though. Having imported clans come in has more of weed within a garden effect. They will only compete in petty shop fronts with Puntites that would've never have had the means to create anything more sophisticated.

Truth is locals are lazy. Having more shisheeye not native to puntland should be a wake up call and put fire under their ass to work and hustle and stop using their abtirsi as an excuse to not work

Wait for aid and remittances to be cut off and then you'll see them actually work
