Khat has always been banned for employees of the government. Unlike Somaliland the leadership does not chew.

 
He said the same thing in September last year and im sure plenty of more times before that.


Regardless, it's widely known that khat is not that big of a problem in PL compared to other Somali regions with reer trinagle dominating in that field.

Forget about the males, females in SL are bigger khatheads than males from PL and the south ffs.

This proved to be truer as last year a video of women in Hargeisa chewing khat in group leaked, SL gov tried to stop this from spreading because of humilation.




Khat companies are widely advertised in SL as you can see here, that's a khat company.

The khat market uses Islam to market their leaves.

The ambiguity of khat in Somaliland.

In Somaliland, the link between Islam and khat is mostly reflected in marketing strategies applied by various khat importers. For example, the main importer brands his khat under the name of 571, which refers to the year the prophet Mohammed was born (cf. Anderson et al., 2007:59). Similarly, another khat brand, now out-competed during a price war with the 571 brand, was marketed under the name of B611, which refers to the year when the prophet Mohammed received his first revelation.

When khat importers such as the 571 and B611 brands compete for market shares, the price of khat is lowered substantially enabling a larger number of poorer consumers to buy cheap khat. Moreover, the fact that the price of khat falls during the day has surely enabled poorer and young consumers to develop a habit of chewing khat. In this sense, the recent growth in khat consumption reflects the existence of an unregulated market.

@shum33 If Isaaq are leaders of Somalia, why don't we see any evidence even on Somalispot they come up with one Idea that all Somalis say 'wow' thanks we didn't know that. You want to claim u lead, but look at your people, not a single solution, not single invention, why is that? you need to be realistic, your people love propaganda, baghdad bob style medias, you love activism and wayna xasuuqeen like blacks say of we were enslaved by whitey. U have all the traits of persecuted minority and your threads show that with the heavy focus on your SUPERIORS Puntland. It's like you want to prove yourself to PL, it's always about comparing yourself to them. The final thing u need to answer where are your inventors if you want ppl to copy you show us your INVENTORS
