agree
one thing I learned to do is do everything myself and rely on myself even all forms of money. you can't trust people and are unpredictableI am studying a field that will be useful in developing the country.
Once I graduate, I will remain in the west to gain work experience. I want to eventually start my own company and get NGO/government money to do development projects back home that are 100% free of corruption. Under budget and ahead of schedule is my target.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
I also want to get a PhD at some point so that I can retire in Garowe as a university professor.
I have been working on my Somali too, instead of reading in English. I try reading in Somali mainly the news because that is the only thing I can cooperate into my habit
the only tech I believe Somali needs is surveillance not to intrude but to create security and safety eventually leading to centralized power
Aaegal
I have no proof, only whispers
No... Finance, health, retail to name a few are necessary.
people need to feel safe and need jobs, and all those will gradually come
if you stay negative yes then Somalia is doomed if your optimistic maybe Somali has chance
We need an army of lawyers of we want to build a functioning country.
I've helped pay for two of my relatives to study law in Kenya and hope to help fund more when I can.
Only worthwhile investment out of the education offerings in Africa.
All other courses are scams.
Somalia produces enough young graduates and they don't need fresh diaspora graduates flooding the market and taking over their dreams of landing a good job. What they need are few professional Somali experts who can guide them and most importantly, the best way diaspora Somalis can help Somalia recover is through lots of investments to create opportunities for these young people. Each region of Somalia has tens of thousands of people who hail from there in the diaspora. If each community can create or raise a venture capital for profit or non-profit and establish a committee with strong business background that plans and targets where to invest, what will follow is a healthy wealth creation, economic growth and employment for the Somali youth without relying on foreign handouts. It will open up many opportunities for the local business people and entrepreneurship will take hold via these investments trickling down. If each individual in the diaspora invests $1000, within few years, profits could be returned to the investors or it could be reinvested in other projects. The more money raised, the more local ventures it can fund. The question is, will clan patriots trust one another with their money to develop their region? We pay qaaraan when it comes to war, but not when it comes to investing and helping ourselves to grow our economy.
"If each community can create or raise a venture capital for profit or non-profit and establish a committee with strong business background that plans and targets where to invest, what will follow is a healthy wealth creation, economic growth and employment for the Somali youth without relying on foreign handouts." yes your right it good idea, but I feel Somalis back home are not skilled enough that they are able to coordinate themselves. what I think is they need low skilled work, you got to build them up, meaning you need few businessmen in office to bring jobs and convince foreign companies to invest in Somali. but first, the government must create security because business doesn't thrive in war

lol you got it all wrong buddy. you will need to learn sharia law not western law. that wont work in somalia. sorry
Somalia is a country heavily dependent on international agreements, which rely on a secular legal framework and not shariah. Shariah is for the dusty footed illiterate local mullah to adjugicate regarding the disputes of local peasants---not the type of legal career i envision for myself.
