I am opening this thread because the other thread wasn't relevant to the topic. But @SirLancelLord believes SL is Richer then PL. He is very 'economy' minded type of person(even tho he lacks understanding), I am also but not 100%, I am also(Miyi Soldier minded). No point having large economy if you can't protect it. But this is besides the point.
I want to assess PL and SL but with realistic factors not emotions. The first question I want answered is what is this Isaaq guy doing in Garowe-Bosaso-Galkacyo working in the lowest sectors like cooks, waiter, chef? Why did he leave his 'blessed large economy'? untill this is answered, I cannot fathom how any discussion can be had on economy. Your people should be STAYING in their SL while other Somalis FLOCK to you would make sense to me you are better off.
But this is clearly not the case. For example, I know America is better off to PL, why? Cuz PL flocks to America, I don't see America flocking to PL. I can accept an American saying 'hey dude I got better economy then you'. I can observe this with my eyes. I would argue with the American you better off in comparison to our 'urban' population not our 'rural population' who do not 'flee' to join you in the west, their economically stable.
Anyways the other question I want answered, economy has two sides of the same coin. GDP vs Living standards. China has the largest GDP, this doesn't mean they have the best LIVING STANDARDS, in-fact most of their people live in 'third world conditions'. The other thing I want answered is the 'AID' Factor. Welfare is given to 'poor' people in the west, not RICH PEOPLE. It's called 'means testing' aid redistribution in their society. This means they 'assess' your 'awood' and give you 'aid' based on how 'weak or strong u r' in terms of financial strength. Hence poor people get 'aid' while rich people told 'go away' you don't need it.
Somaliland gets more foreign aid is PROOF they must be 'poorer' or else u would have to believe something illogical to the mind, that a richer state gets more aid? does this add up to you? if your rich state you should be getting less aid. PL shows this clearly as they are the 'least' aid dependant in Somalia. Hamar/Hargeisa HIGHLY AID DEPENDANT. What else can this mean? hadee anigu waxan taasi uu arka dadkina waa dad dhintay oo uu bahan laca deeq ah.
The other factor that finally convinces me PL is richer. I see more 'community driven projects' by 'locals' in PL, where-as you will never see this in SL/Hargeisa. Weligay ma arag umadasi intay is cawiyan wax dhisto. It's all 'aid' based their development. Puntland is not the same narrative. How many times have you seen Puntlanders build their own schools, roads, hospitals, ports(dekeda garacad). It's countless times. Shacabka ayaa dhistay PL, ask them even Somalida kale ayaa ku sheegayo inaysan 'dawlada' waxba uu dhisin meaning LESS AID dependant more People RESILIENT.
Stop comparing Isaaq and Majerten on Somalispot, I am sick of it. It's like comparing an American and a damn Mexican. Mexicans work low sectors, which Isaaq prove they work in PL in the lowest sectors AND he must be seeing a benefit or else he wouldn't continue working there meaning BETTER LIVING STANDARD.
