As we all know, there are some projects that Puntland hasn't completed. These are the ones I hold the government accountable to.
1. The sports stadium. Even Cadaado has a new sporting ground
Nearly every major city in Somalia has a sporting ground. Heck Mogadishu alone has multiple green sporting grounds. This is something the SFG has done well. Kismaayo, Cadaado, Burco, Las Anod, Borama, Hargeisa are all green turfed. There isn't a single green turf in all of Puntland, is this acceptable? of course not, this is disgusting that we are so behind on such a meagre project.
2. The national high-way between Bosaso and Galkacyo, the whole lot needs to be re-paved and rehabilitated. The infamous failed project between galkacyo to garow road rehabilitation was a great shame on the state, we must hold PL govt accountable to get this done as a matter of urgency.
3. Bosaso port development. Nothing has started to expand the port facility. There is mixed stories about who is responsible but according to the former minister of ports, he squarely puts the blame on PL govt for not prepping the area around the port and removing the current occupants.
Watch that video, he suggests Bosaso being to far from Ethiopia, shouldn't chase after the ethiopian trade and let djibouti and berbera squabble over it. He suggests we should bring in turks who use Dubai port for $10 billion dollars a year for processing turkish goods or he says we should join the belt and road iniatitive which china is doing around Pakistan, those chinese operators will need near-by ports for servicing and refueling.
So Bosaso has two options, bring the turks from dubai and have Bosaso serve as the turkish hub or we should join the belt and road initiative of China.
