Holy crap the amount of revenue Puntland makes compared to the federal member states is wild


PL makes more than all of them combined
Puntland $352 Million
Galmudug $32 Mililion
S-West $42 Million
Jubba- $42 Million
A few years ago, I saw a report where the World Bank or some other entity had the audacity to ask Puntland to share revenue with these other states.
What's more, those other federal states receive their share of international funding, which makes up part of that budget, and for all we know, the bulk of that budget. The truth is, these other FMS are mostly propped up by foreign troops and foreign funding. In their current state, they are not viable. But if they had a normal federal government, with an effective SNA, and they diversified the output of these states, the budgets would far exceed that.
Of course, there are no such plans, the only plans in motion, are how to destroy the only effective and independent government in Somalia; Puntland.
