This article from The New York Times about the lack of public governance in Somalia depicts the economic benefits and challenges of doing business and thriving as society.
If competition is fierce and prices low, public services inexist and security privately owned in Mogadishu, the capital.
Somalis have learned to make money without government's help but say they need coordination to ensure the provision of basic services like education, health and infrastructure.
Somalis are willing to pay taxes to reduce the social costs costs of doing business in a headless and unpredictable context.
The real challenges, however, seems to be: How big should be the government? Too large may lead to well-known cases of corruption. Too tiny might not be enough to address all public problems faced by Somalis.
The hurdles of the most eastern African country also raises other side questions: How effective are United Nations actions? What is needed to form a government? Why Somalis cannot shape one?
