Recent diplomatic successes (such as the recent entry in the #EAC), the détente with #Kenya (since 2021), wide-ranging cooperation with #Turkey and the #UAE play their part. DP World (UAE) has announced the port expansion in Bosaso (#Puntland) should be completed this year (https://www.garoweonline.com/en/news/somalia/somalia-dubai-s-dp-world-will-finish-366-million-bosaso-port-expansion-this-year).

Strange, multaj homoj eĉ uzante tia metodo por diri horojn, portas la horloĝon "ya kizungu" (t.e. "kiel la blankuloj") kaj diras la horojn "ya kiswahili" aŭ "ya kiafrika", tio estas "svahile" aŭ "afrike" 😊

Mi esperas ke miaj klarigoj ne estis konfuzaj tro!
