ALGIERS, Algeria, May 23, 2025/APO Group/ --
The Islamic Corporation for the Insurance of Investment and Export Credit (ICIEC) (https://ICIEC.IsDB.org/), a Shariah-based multilateral insurer and member of the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) Group, announced —on the sidelines of the IsDB Group Annual Meeting 2025 in Algiers—the signing of a Specific Transaction Policy (STP) for Royal Boskalis (Boskalis), valued at USD 40 million.

The agreement, signed by Dr. Khalid Khalafalla, CEO of ICIEC, underpins a project critical to expanding Oman’s logistics capacity. By deepening navigation channels and enhancing jetty infrastructure these strategic developments will significantly increase SOHAR Port’s throughput capacity, attract high-value industrial investments, and solidify the Sultanate’s role as a leading regional maritime hub — all in alignment with Oman Logistics Strategy 2040. Moreover, this will pave the way for a major energy milestone: the launch of the Middle East’s first LNG bunkering project, MARSA LNG, a joint venture between TotalEnergies and OQEP, positioning Oman at the forefront of clean maritime fuel.
Dr. Khalid Khalafalla, CEO of ICIEC, remarked: “By supporting Boskalis’ participation in the SOHAR Port and Freezone South Expansion Project, we are helping to secure the delivery of a project that will fortify Oman’s gateway to world trade, generate skilled employment and promote sustainable, diversified growth. ICIEC’s mission is to back the infrastructure that opens new trade corridors, deepens connectivity and broadens economic opportunity across our member states.”

More needs to be done for the Youths insha'allah.
It does not cost anything to give them structure and discipline only the creation of the opportunity to serve their country and gain livelong skills.
I think Somaliland has been getting weaker day after day since Silanyo came to power about two years ago:
1… BERBERA is totally being run by one sub-clan (Isse Muse) and never obey what the president orders (refer Cement Factory case when the president issued orders for Dahabshiil Group but Isse Muse' malitia vetoed the presidential decree and tore up the letter signed by the president into small pieces.
2.. Local Council elections were rigged and until now there are civil strife in parts of the country.
3. HARGAISA STADIUM was captured ARAB (SUB-CLAN of ISAAQ) malitia and worlords who want money from the Government THUS POSTPONEMENT OF PROVINCES TOURNAMENT (DUE TO MID JANUARY 2013) POSTPONED TO JUNE OR UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
These things and flying of some politicians to Mogadishu indicate that Somaliland project may be wrapped up soon.
Is this the latest information from the darood HQ in garowe.
SiyaasiOne, shut up with the clan talk. Somaliland is a work in process, but using tribe talk only shows your anti somaliland views. You must be from Puntland.
Healthy bodies, Healthy minds. Onwards and upwards on the youth front. More opportunities, more employment.
