They said it was as old as the village (100+ years). I don't know what species it is though.

Yh I did. I stayed there for 1 week, it is much better than Hargeiesa. Hargeisa is too hot feels like Darfur, also the streets
were dusty and the girls were skinny, also too many Oromo beggars in the city center . In comparison people in Burco were
well fed and big boned (it could be due to genetics) Lol.

I am very surprised Hargeisa was hotter than Burco.
Were Burco people equally fed? which qabiil was looking better out there?

It could be lack of rain, when I arrived in Hargeisa it was dry but when I became back it rained apparently and the weather
cooled down. I stayed in the western part, the first morning I woke up from the hotel walking outside to the suuq a middle
aged woman yells " ma habar yoonis ba tahay" I laughed and said yh, then she asked what I was after it. :lol: Reer Burco are
straight forward.

Masle is properly the most progressive village in Somaliland. It has a female mayor.

I know Burco people could be awkwardly straight forward at times.
Are you still into building a wall between east burco and west burco :lol:

You should know by now I never change my views for anybody. Anyway this is about the far east not Burco. In Ceel Afweyn there
is a area called "Geedka Xamarta" where Sacad Yoonis elders/youths come to chat in the late afternoon, when I was in Ceel Afweyn
all the elders came to me and we discussed plans to improve our lands. So you see I am not a nobody, I am a V.I.P (Very Important
Person) . :mrgreen: .

I am sure your instincts will kick in soon and start talking about Maryo-alool, Habar vs Habar, Oromo clans, etc and you will be banned again for turning this section into a clan bashing section. But enjoy your brief stay :up:

2.Head of a new fundraising organization for back-home
