[quote="MJ-Pride"]Cabdalla is right. Its only 600 in Savage South and an staggering 1600 in Puntland. That almost three times more than what it is in Savage South. Don't cry when slapped with hard evidence and come up with proves to refute this

The northern Somali oil-rich autonomous region of Maakhir declared its independence on 1 July 2007. Like neighbouring Puntland -- the stronghold of President Youssef -- it is an economically thriving region with standards of living much higher than the average for Somalia as a whole -- per capita income is $1,600 in Puntland, compared with $600 in the rest of Somalia. Remittances from overseas Somalis are also helping to rebuild the northern autonomous regions of Puntland and Maakhir. Brisk trade with Gulf Arab countries has contributed to rapid economic growth in the northern parts of the country.

Twisted Logic,
This source, in case you don't know was published in Al-ahram and its the Arab version of The Guardian. Its one of the oldest Egyptian newspapers. If you are not taking that as a source, why not come up with a prove stating otherwise from another source? If you are passing everything as false, the onus is on your to come up with something or you'll need to zip it and take the source



Ps, Egyptian has no reason to be biased to Puntland or any other part of Somalia. To them we are all Somalis.
