Whoa.  I stand corrected.  It looks like an interesting place.   Since  
the Danish government would tax me very hard I would bet that the  
amount loss to taxes would greatly exceed the amount any private firms  
in Somalia could rip me off for.   And the private firms could be  
taken to court where most governments generally cannot be successfully  
sued.
