And Somalia saved the day [Video]

MALINDI, Kenya (AP) — People here have one thing to thank Somali pirates for: Better fishing.

In past years, illegal commercial trawlers parked off Somalia’s coast and scooped up the ocean’s contents. Now, fishermen on the northern coast of neighboring Kenya say, the trawlers are not coming because of pirates.

“There is a lot of fish now, there is plenty of fish. There is more fish than people can actually use because the international fishermen have been scared away by the pirates,” said Athman Seif, the director of the Malindi Marine Association.

  2. This really shows you how much the world cares about the region and is ready to take advantage of it.

    I’m not the biggest fan of the pirates, but if they can stop the illegal trawlers and help put food on starving people’s table, I’ll be the last to stand in their way.

  5. For the sake of PR they should probably rename themselves to the Association for the Safekeeping of the Somali Coastline and Waters!

  7. this is good news. but lets not forget the rest of the world knows that somalia has many natural resources from oil to diamonds, rubys fish, if somalia was left alone they know that they will have a big problem because they will have a rich muslim country located in the most important part of the world.
    history tells them what will happen if somalis are left alone like what happend when somalia and somaliland got there independece in 1969 and they united under the dream of the blue flag with the star representin the 5 somali teritorys and it was under this dream siad barre invaded ethiopea andcaptuerd ogaden an area the size of uk easily. this proved that ethiopea was to weak for somalia and the world got a glimps of somalias might and this is in 1970’s and they got sceard. imagine if the war in somalia never started by now somalia would have easily been the richest most powerfull country in africa easily have been a bigger tourist atrraction than dubai, belive it or not but afrika is the most beautifll continent in the world and somalia is naturally one of the most beautifull if not the most beautifull country in the world. and a big player in the world stage but as u know the people behind not only somalia’s collapse but many countries like iraq they cannot risk the chance of a powerfull muslim country and somalia would be , was , and could still be if somalis are left alone. the only muslim country left that aint a joke when it comes to there military is iran and as u cn see they want to take out iran eswell. same reason they took out iraq and somalia.they want to countroll the muslims like robots. its all part of a evil plan they have and i belive things are only gonna get worse for the muslim people which means the end of he world is near.

    i truelly belive that the only reason y somalia is like the way it is now is because certin poeople governments dnt want to see a strong powerfull somalia and they will do whatever they cn to mske sure they dnt .
