Hargeisa

[spiritz101]

Just got back from hargeisa,

1)no roads or streets

2)rocks everywhere, outside the house, the pollution is unbearable

3)broken make shift of what is supposed to be rds

4) no creativity in creating employment, everyone are building hotels which are empty

5)goats everywhere, don't hit em otherwise you'll end up paying 100s if not 1000s,

6)everyone is high on qaat, a country of junkies, zombies

7)gorbajoog are inflating the prices of empty land, being taken for idiots

8)when a car breaks down, they just leave it by the side, no garages, or mechanics

9)in government, works starts at 8 finishes at 12..

10) the highways are decent, but in the so called cities the mayor and he's cronies rob all the taxes so nothing ever gets fixed, no roads developed or street lights, signs, stops, traffic lights... Nothing

11)hilib geel is over rated, caano geel is nasty but nice at same time...

12)THERE IS NOTHING TO DO IN HARGESA, NOTHING TO SEE

WHEN THEY SAY THE COUNTRY IS DEVELOPING THEY MEAN ANOTHER HOTEL IS GOING UP...

NO MATTER HOW MUCH MONEY YOU HAVE A MILLION IN THE BANK, 1 DOLLAR OR 100MILLION, YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE STILL SHIT, THE AIR IS SHIT, THE ROADS ARE SHIT AND THE FOOD IS SHIT

BUT STILL HOME

every somali city is like that bro .hargeysa needs road construction badly

 

[Yibir Huur]

This 'let's build hotels for no reason' culture has to die. It's all over Somalia. IT'S NOT DEVELOPMENT. Give safer and better houses instead!

 

[spiritz101]

Lol boss, funny thing, all the ppl who earning money in construction are Asians, Chinese, Arabs, and xabashis, our ppl have no skills walahi, I drove past so many shops being built, somalis get used to remove the dirt, rocks, and debris with their hands, child labour, kids as young as 8 or 10 being used like in Congo....the situation is sad walahi...

Young kids as young as 6 falling a sleep on the street out of hunger and waking up at the same spot still hungry.

Yet goorbajoog who spent two weeks in the summer shielded, sheltered and move around in a car protected from the realities, these goorbajoog will tell you the country is making moves to be the next Wakanda... Part of the problem is the government who only there for 4 or 8 years, in that time they only there line up their pockets, divide lands among themselves and build large buildings for themselves..

Let's apply the ultimate test.

Ask every politician to forfeit he's European / American /Canadian passport for the somaliland passport.... Non will do... No love for the country..

This humiliation will continue until we sort our own shit out, especially africans.

Wouldn't hurt for european and arab meddlers to be busy with a.....certain say upcoming war.

Nah abti, they're both shit ,kismaayo and bosaaso are better

 

[Soomaaliweyn]

Xaargeisa was very disappointing. Skyscrapers and slums next to broken roads with puddles left after each rainfall. It was very overcrowded with widespread begging and a sizeable ooromo population. The air was toxic and the area was very depressing. Very disappointed

They truly take us for idiots. I still don't understand why the taxis charge double for the front seat, or pay normal rates if you share the front seat with someone else.

 

[SomaliWadaniSoldier]

Pretty much how every Sixty Eightian city looks like

 

[Bohol]

It is a shithole but a shithole that can make you money in terms of land. Purchased plots of lands there back in 2016 now it is 3x return in investment, going to sell some of in the future and buy a house in the UK. Ain't trying to live in Somalia.

I like your investment strategy and thinking, but aren't uk houses shit and expensive. No style whatsoever

It is not about style but their value grows very well + rental income.

 

[spiritz101]

All goorbojoogs are buying land, sitting on them and hoping they quadruple in price in few years, that creates empty lands and plots no one building on and makes the city looks ugly...

My friend sat on two plots for 3yrs, bought them for 25k, sold them 7wks ago for 130k, nice bit of profit.

The locals are priced out from buying anything which creates resentment towards us western guys... Can't blame them realy

@spiritz101,

Hargeisa isn’t as bad as other Somali cities but you are right that it is overrated. The corrupt government needs to invest in infrastructure and roads.


Best,
