The origins of the Anglo Somali Society!
4th December 1962, and during a cold and frosty Tuesday evening, five men gathered at the Mayfair Hotel in London to form a new society with the aim of strengthening the relations between Britain and the Somali Republic.

Somaliland is back to the global stages, offering strategic investment opportunities and leveraging its prime location near the Red Sea and Bab-el-Mandeb Strait. With a stable political environment and ambitious infrastructure projects like the DP World-developed Berbera Port, Somaliland is positioning itself as a vital trade hub for East Africa. Its untapped potential in agriculture, fisheries, and livestock presents further avenues for growth. Now is the time for investors to join Somaliland on its path toward economic transformation and global engagement.

@deeqawil03 @JamaMusse Hi @deeqawil03, in this context, we are referring to the Somali ethnic group as defined in the Oxford Dictionary, rather than the language. The society is a non-political organisation and does not take a stance on political matters. Please visit our website for further info.
