Whos moving to somalia in the future?

Puntland,my home in northeastern Somalia, is a land of opportunities for small businesses. The region has a diverse economy that includes agriculture, fishing, livestock, and trading. With a population of over 4 million people, there is a huge market for businesses looking to set up shop in Puntland. In this essay, I will share some of the small business opportunities in Somalia in particular Puntland region.

Fishing and Seafood Processing - Puntland has a long coastline that stretches over 1,300 km, making it an ideal location for fishing and seafood processing. With a growing demand for seafood in the global market, there is a huge potential for small businesses to invest in this sector. There are many opportunities for businesses that specialize in processing, packaging, and exporting fish and seafood products such as lobster, shrimp, and tuna.

Livestock Farming - Puntland is known for its large herds of camels, goats, and sheep. The demand for meat and other animal products is high in the region, and small businesses can take advantage of this opportunity by investing in livestock farming. They can raise livestock for meat, milk, and other products such as leather.

Agriculture - Puntland has fertile land that is suitable for crop cultivation. Small businesses can invest in farming and produce crops such as bananas, tomatoes, potatoes, and vegetables. They can also produce more specialized crops such as frankincense, myrrh, and gum arabic.

Retail and Wholesale - Puntland is a hub of trade and commerce. Small businesses can take advantage of this by investing in retail and wholesale businesses. They can establish shops where they sell essential goods such as food, clothing, and household items. They can also set up wholesale shops where they sell goods to retailers.

Production- small scale labelling and repackaging local products to international standards.

Tourism - Puntland has many natural attractions that are yet to be explored. Small businesses can invest in the tourism sector by setting up guesthouses, hotels, and restaurants. They can also provide tour guide services to visitors to help them explore the region's natural attractions such as Bari Mountains and the Ras Hafun peninsula.

In conclusion, yes I will return either this year or begin next year Inshallah. Puntland region is full of opportunities for small businesses. From fishing and seafood processing to agriculture, livestock farming, retail, and tourism, there are many sectors that the diaspora can invest in. With a growing population and a favorable business environment,considering the stability and the buying power of the local population Puntland should be on the radar for any entrepreneur looking to invest in a new business.
 
People don't often leave Europe to go back to their ancestral land. The exceptions are the European jews who left Germany and much of Europe to go back to Palestine and build Israel, and this was because they suffered a holocaust that nearly wiped out their people.

So basically most of you who say you will return are talking bullshit (to be polite).


Why would I stay in Europe when I can own a house like this with my Toyota Sequoia parked outside.

 
Nah I'm a westerner, I was back home recently and I like it don't get me wrong. But I have more cultural affinity to the country I was raised in. Somaalida o dhan waan jecelahay, wa ehelkaygi o aan ka maarmi kari , laakin waxaan ahay qurbo dhaqameed as you say 🤣

Our parents say the same thing when they arrived, they thought that the war was going to end quickly and that he could return and in the end, 30 years later they are still there.

I wonder how the descendants of western somalis will turn out. All people lose their ties eventually, it has already happened people are less close to home somalia due to being born and raised in the west.

Mogadishu, the capital city of Somalia, has had a tumultuous history marked by years of unrest, violence, and economic instability. However, in recent years, the city has made significant strides towards economic recovery and has the potential to become a regional powerhouse.

Since the start of the civil war in the late 80s, Somalia has struggled to rebuild its various institutions, including a stable and functional economy, due to years of conflict and a lack of government control over the country. However, in the past few years, Mogadishu has witnessed a gradual shift towards economic stability, marked by the return of many Somali expats, foreign investments, and a flourishing entrepreneurial spirit.

One of the factors driving Mogadishu's economic recovery is its strategic location, situated at the center of East Africa, where it has long served as a key hub for regional trade. Additionally, the city's seaport, which recently underwent a major renovation project, is transforming into a major docking point for international shipping.

The rebuilding of key infrastructure, the establishment of a functional banking system, and the growth of private sector enterprises are also some of the driving forces behind Mogadishu's economic resurgence. The local authorities have implemented policies aimed at attracting foreign direct investment and supporting local entrepreneurs to create new jobs, facilitate trading networks, and strengthen the overall economic landscape.

As Mogadishu continues to make progress on the economic front, there is no doubt that the city has the potential to become a regional powerhouse. The city's strategic location, large population, and burgeoning economic potential have attracted the attention of investors and other stakeholders, all of whom recognize Mogadishu's potential to become the economic and financial center of East Africa.

Despite the strides made so far, Mogadishu still faces many challenges, including political instability, sporadic violence, and the continuing threat of terrorism. Nevertheless, as the city continues to recover and its economy expands, there is every indication that Mogadishu will cement its position as a rising regional powerhouse.

As a Somali diaspora we have uncapped opportunities to take advantage of the many possibilities that this city has to offer.

The west is not our home and as historically entrepreneurial folk we are meant to rise from the ashes of failed society.

Somalia right now is like Bitcoin in its infancy for those that recognise it.

Nope, I went there in 2016. It's doesn't fit my life style. It's to far behind
 
Once I retire I would have enough saved in dividend stocks so I can live off that. So maybe in 35 years from now. I will teach at a university as a engineering professor (working on my phd).
 
Will you be relocating to Somalia in the near future? If so, why? If not, why not?

Personally I plan to return when Alshabab is gone, which should be within the next three years when I finish my bachelor's and master's degrees, inshallah. I've always felt that I don't belong here; I have this dream to be a teacher or create a library, or own a bookshop, and live my life as a wife and mother back home in my farmhouse.
Why would I punish myself Acudobillah maybe to visit at most
