The Puntland government has made large strides towards development over the last 20 years and none can deny their efforts. We in Jubaland need to learn from our sister darood federal member state. The other parties need to also follow the model created by the Puntland government and strive towards achieving continuous development and not stagnate. Our armed forces in Jubaland need extensive reform and armament which needs to be addressed immediately. The UAE, Canada, US, Qatar, Italy and China need to show and let their interest in Jubaland known. Jubaland will be leasing land to first world armies in the near future due to our strategic position and will host Western frigates in Kismayo and the other soon to be developed ports in Jubaland.
