Chinese delegation visited Somalia’s northeastern state of Puntland in March, 2015 in quest for close partnership as giant Chinese firms could be exploring new opportunities in Africa, and to be precise in East Africa more particularly. The Chinese officials discussed -- expanding China’s infrastructure footprint, barely a year before then Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud presided over the grand opening of China-revamped Bossaso international airport -- with the President of semi-autonomous Puntland region, Abdiweli Mohamed Ali.

The President of Puntland who is bent on leaving a mark on the region’s infrastructure asked for China to construct Garowe-Eyl Road,Galkayo airport and Garacad sea port, the latter being a strategic Indian Ocean village which back in 2012 became notoriously popular with piracy scourge. According to friendswith whom I have conversed over the course of thedraft, the Chinese delegates and Puntland raised the looming prospect of forging partnership in offshore explorations.

Though, China is believed to be keen on a stake in the vast hydrocarbon harbored in the waters off the coast of Somalia, the Somali officials have been too reluctant about disclosing China’s rekindled interest in hydrocarbon ventures for years hamstrung by disputes between the federal government in Mogadishu and federal member states.

Garacad Seaport Project

Chinese engineers conducted a pre-feasibility for anew seaport project in the coastal village of Garacadbetween January and March this year. Somali business leaders are said to have bankrolled Garacad seaport blueprint, merely something murky, and as of now independent of Chinese investment clout.

Puntland dubbed the port project ‘Central Somalia Economic Growth Corridor’ to turn economic tide, with natural resources at its disposal. Conceived by the government, the project is aimed at tarmacking 269km road, construction of quay and crane facilities equipped with standard and bonded warehouses, cooling and freezing facilities as well as container yard at Garacad and improvement of Galkayo airport with 3km paved road.

If constructed, Garacad port will provide neighboring Ethiopia, which laments about congested services at Djibouti port, with an additional gateway.

On his return from a visit to Ethiopia on March 22, Puntland President Dr. Ali announced that there are plans to construct Garowe-Eyl road and Galkayo airport. The President’s remarks may have sounded tacit acknowledgement of China’s fresh charm offensive to keep plugging at Somalia’s thirst for infrastructure.

Eyl Port Corridor Project

The feasibility study and the detailed engineering design of the would-be paved road between Dangorayo and Eyl were carried out in 2016 with financing provided by the Somali Relief Network of North America (SRNNA) under the auspices of Puntland Highway Authority (PHA), a viable entity in charge of urban and rural roads in Puntland.

The government officially laid foundation stone for the road on August 19, 2016 in the presence of respected elders and local community representatives. Clearance operations started off afterwards, and 80km alignment expected to be upgraded to national standard road with 7m dual carriageway was connected to the existing 40km gravel road of Eyl coastal town.



Puntland Government touted Eyl road project a ‘flagship one’ which will benefit tourism, thanks to the pristine beach and historic sites in Eyl, fisheries sector, livestock exports, and overall Somalia’s booming construction industry.


For instance, Locals in Eyl coastal town derive the most major part of their livelihood from fishing, and Eyl was a home to 705 fishing fleet that comprises canoes, sail boats and motor boats, seasonal and full time fishermen estimated to be 1330 (UNDP Report, 2005) and nearly 20 refrigerator trucks.

Fishermen in Eyl and a string of Indian Ocean villages used to export lobster tails and shark fins to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Kenya, meaning a new paved road will greatly enhance rapid access to renovated airports in Garowe and Bossaso, thus reducing cost for road users and artisan fishers engaged in lobster fishing during peak seasons (October to March).

Moreover, many believe, once a road linking Eyl into the trunk road network is completed, Puntland will be able to revive dry fish meat exports to potential and long-lost international markets such as France, Italy, Saudi Arabia and East African markets in Tanzania.

What is China looking for?

China officially re-opened its embassy in Mogadishu in August, 2014. It has been lending a helping hand to Somalia ever since. The pledge amounting USD 10 million in aid earlier last month once more demonstrated China’s evolving role in an era of reconstruction which was more recently overshadowed by the devastating drought nationwide.

On March 30, Puntland cabinet passed deal with China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC). It is yet unclear how the federal government in Mogadishu would react to the agreement signed between Puntland and CCECC, though discomfort at federal level has been swirling around since then.

CCECC’s business scope mainly covers civil engineering design and consultancy. It is also popular in neighboring Ethiopia where it won contracts for the construction of Miesso to Djibouti port section of transnational electric-powered railway connecting Ethiopia to Djibouti and Dire Dawa Dry Port Project. Thus far, CCECC is not the company that would carry out minerals survey and oil exploration as the government seeks to map Somalia’s quantity and distribution of mineral resources, indeed much to the brewing public chagrin over China’s interest in the country’s mining and hydrocarbon industries.

Moreover, it remains to be seen whether China’s new role will turn into a source of friction or leapfrog the long-awaited infrastructures including Garowe-Eyl Road, Galkayo Airport and possibly Garacad Port.

Dr. Gaas – whose short stint as the head of ‘National Salvation Cabinet’ between 2011 and 2012 earned him a praise -- wants to oversee the completion of a string of ambitious schemes to transform Puntland’s infrastructure not least -- Bossaso Port Renovation and Galkayo-Garowe Road Rehabilitation Project; however he is expected to address the vexed yet likely pricier China question.

The road is clear, we are moving ahead.
 
China is lending money it doesn't have.

It's an opportunity for Somalia to use Chinese greed against them. There's a major correction coming and anyone who can get loans from China in Africa should default on them.

Somalis need to invest in Private equity funds that are transparent and can return yeilds to investors. China always sends its dumbest people to Africa and they make billions. We need to invest together ASAP, before Chinese private equity funds start owning Somalia like they do in Jamaica.

how would one start that
 
I wish more Somalis moved from the barren interior and started more villages and settlements along the coast the government can help implement this by constructing a highway along the coast from Kismayo to bosaso, and encourage nomads to settle.
 
As opposed to transacting with money?

Beggars can't be choosers and these African politicians are at fault for accepting.
Yes but once you get money you can implement it into your community thus helping the local population.However the chinese only hire chinese personell thus perpetuating the inequality faced by somali nationals.

That would do wonders for our economy.

Even with a population nearing 15 million most tuulos don't have more than a few thousand locals.

More densely populated locations would allow for more Somali businesses.

Problem is moving all these nomads who rely on their current locations for their livelihoods.

The government should develop a 100k hectare farming project to produce enough feedstock to move 1/3 of those nomads to the coast near the rivers (between Mogadishu and Kismayo).

100k hectares should produce enough feed for a couple million sheep and with some centralisation we could move in enough cheap water from the rivers.

Would also allow for opportunities to develop value added meat products with the centralisation as well.

Your right but if we had money then we would've already had the infrastructure.

It's a catch 22 scenario where African countries don't have the billions of dollars required for infrastructure in the first place.

Selling a bit of your resources reserves in return for infrastructure could be a good deal if it allows us to kick start our own development.

If we outsource all the important jobs out to Chinese workers and import materials we could've produced at home then that would drastically limit the amount we could learn from the experience for future projects...

so we end up continuing outsourcing everything until our resources run out.

Nothing wrong with selling your resources however there is something wrong with giving land so they can work it to death for a few houses. State run mines are our future like Saudi Arabia, gulf and other arab countries.

The lack of transparency of this administration is worrying.
 
I saw a old thread talking about PL's major projects so 3 years later I want to do an updated version of it.

Garacad Port is near completion.

Galgodob-Gaalkacyo-Garacad road near completion.

Funds are being raised in the background for Eyl Port, formal process and shares will be open to the public a few months after Garacad is operational.

Bosaso Solar Farm shall complete soon as well.

Ceerigabo-Ceel Dahir road is on its phase of tarmac. This road in its first phase reduced travel times between Bosaso and Badhan from 8 hours to 30 minutes.

Guardafui road is in the middle of its first phase.

PMPF will expand along the Puntland coast to more villages and towns.

Garowe-Bosaso road repair

Garowe-Gaalkacyo road repair (finally)

Eyl to Garowe road

New Gaalkacyo Airport

Expansion of Garowe Airport

These are the major projects I'm aware of, add some more in case I missed some.
 
Deni needs to speed some of the project up to get even more support, since the FGS is against every single project it's time we work with companies that could careless about a gov that relies on amisom for protection.
