Puntland region's entire export sector was predicted to bring in around half the revenue of its Khat industry.
Estimated revenue lost to Puntland region from aviation + all sales + all stamp duties = Khat revenue loss!
Mirqaan is a big part of your local budget, I would not hate on it.
No wonder your currency has been nuked and you are experiencing hyperinflation at rates never seen before in the region. You do not have a viable economy; your entire export revenue was predicted to be around US$4.5 million, this is shocking.
Puntland region is a good case of mismanagement and how it kills an already struggling local economy.
So large is the khat industry that 90% of males and 20% of women chew khat.
It’s a crackhead region.
