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.
