Building a Business Directory for Somaliland – Join the Movement!

Hi everyone! 👋

I’m working on an exciting project to create a business directory specifically for businesses and individuals in Somaliland. The goal is to connect local businesses with the community, showcase hidden gems, and make it easier for everyone to find reliable services and products.

The first time I went back home, it was difficult to find what I was looking for, and I’m sure many of you have experienced the same.

To get started, I’ve launched a social media pages Bizlink Somaliland (Instagram/Facebook/Tiktok) where I’m highlighting amazing local businesses, sharing valuable tips, and engaging with the community. 🎉

Here’s how you can help:
👉 Follow the pages to stay updated and discover incredible businesses in Somaliland.
👉 Share the pages with your friends, family, and network to spread the word.
👉 Tag a local business that deserves a shoutout so we can feature them!

Your support means the world to me, and I’d love your input on this journey:

  • What features should this directory have to serve you better?
  • What are the biggest challenges you face in finding reliable businesses or services?

This is more than just a project; it’s a way to empower our local community and entrepreneurs. Let’s build this together! 🚀

Where are the normal somalilanders?

This subreddit seems anti-somaliland and the other subreddit is like a cult of affirmation led by pro-musebihi members.

China is going to destroy Somaliland from the inside out.

Salam my brothers & sisters. A lot of people are not realizing that China is actively destroying Somaliland sovereignty from the inside out. Why? My theory as I once said before, Somaliland diplomatic relationship with Taiwan. China will not stop. It is in Somaliland best interest to protect itself from foreign states that interfere with internal affairs. This is not good, and before you know it. Somaliland will have lost everything it has worked for. And my worry is Somaliland will desperately seek American help. And that will be the nail in the coffin. Because America is nobody’s friend, I know this because I’m an American. Somaliland needs to protect its self for external shocks. Let me know your thoughts below. Peace and blessing to my motherland & fatherland. 🌍💚

Interactive Arts and Culture Centre in Hargeisa

Would you be interested or do you think folks would be interested in an interactive Arts and Culture Centre in Hargeisa?

Imagine workshops, dance classes, hide tanning, textile work, music and guitar lessons, singing lessons, weaving, pottery, cooking lessons, language courses etc. all things Somali.

The idea is to hire locals, putting as much money back into the community, while also sharing in culture.

The target would likely be diaspora.

It's just an idea right now and I'm wondering if there would be interested.

What do you think?

I know there's the Hargeisa Art Centre but it's mostly talks, this would be almost exclusively interactive.

What Has Taiwan Done for Somaliland. Since they established diplomatic relations?

What has Taiwan done for Somaliland? I’m genuinely curious to know. This destabilization in the eastern region is giving me proxy backed vibes. I believe it better to be aligned with China, as long as they respected Somaliland. They will always be a threat, and Cirro should move swiftly before it’s too late.

Ben Shapiro approves Somaliland recognition!!!

Do u guys think that it is worth it, to deal with Israel 🇮🇱/America for recognition and a potential corporation??? Just to let u know that they are not doing it because they love Isaaq, they are doing strictly for them selfs and destroy the Muslim word? I genuinely wonder if it’s worth it for some of u pro Somalilanders???

Moving to Somaliland

Asc all,

I’m planning to move to Somaliland and am exploring career opportunities, particularly in the NGO sector or entrepreneurial ventures.

I hold a degree in politics and have relevant professional experience in the field. My background equips me with skills, and I’m eager to contribute to meaningful projects.

Additionally, I’m open to discussing business opportunities that align with Somaliland’s growing economy and unique market needs.

If you have any advice, leads, or recommendations, I’d greatly appreciate your input. Feel free to comment here or reach out directly.

Thank you in advance!

Somalia is a dictator ship?

I was just watching this video and he has somaliland listed as a not dictatorship but has somalia listed as one. Now whilst the former is clear, I was wondering why might have he made somalia be in the list of dictatorships.

Legal Battle Over Land – Seeking Advice for a Somali Family

Hi everyone, I know of a Somali family that’s been dealing with a legal battle over a land for over a decade. And I wanted to ask for advice on the matter.

The family bought land from one of the heirs, who provided a letter of agency with the signatures of all the other heirs, supposedly transferring ownership. However, years later, the heirs' family came back and filed a lawsuit, claiming they didn’t know about the sale—even though they had signed the letter of agency. They’ve been trying to reclaim the land ever since. The family hired a lawyer, and initially, a court ruled that the land should be returned to the original owners. Another court also ordered the family to pay a small sum to the original owners, hoping to close the matter. But the family disagreed with the ruling, and after years of back-and-forth, the last court ruling (about 10 years ago) acknowledged that the family was the rightful owner of the land and instructed that a letter of ownership be issued to them. However, to this day, nothing has happened. The land remains untouched, the family still doesn’t have legal ownership, and unfortunately, the lawyer they were working with passed away, leaving all the court documents with him. It’s worth noting that this family has been living outside of Somalia throughout this whole process, so they’re unfamiliar with the legal system there. Given that Somali laws aren’t always enforced consistently, I’m hoping to get some advice on how they can proceed with this legal situation. Also, if anyone knows a reliable lawyer in Somalia who could help them move forward, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any help!
