On this symbolic and historic day of ours the 12 April 2010 the Puntland government and the TFG government reach an understanding which has been signed formally in a ceremony held at Safari Park in Nairobi, Kenya which constitutes the re-establishment and reinstating of the National Army in Somalia, fighting of Anti Piracy, Fight against environmental dumping and illegal fishing of the coast of Puntland for that the TFG agreed that the troops will be trained in the beautiful and peaceful Puntland which is 1/3 of Somalia but has been not in a working relationship with the TFG government in Mogadishu which only controls a half square mile of the capital.

Also in Puntland a base where all the Anti-Pirate missions of the coast of Somalia are controlled will be established there. This is a great day for Federal Somalia.

The International Community was hard in pushing this agreement and Puntland's importance and role has thus been confirmed, Somalia is Puntland and Puntland is Somalia as can be seen by the celebration of the 50th National Army Day which has been greatly and hugely celebrated in Garowe, State capital of Puntland today.
