Suldaanka Posted October 21, 2012 Video About 100 years ago Ismaciil Mire took herd of animals to sell in Burco's livestock market, he composed this poem from is his experience: Afar waxaan u dhaxay tuuladii awrta loo raraye Albaabkii Burcaan tegey anoo aaladii sida e Amminkiiba lay yimid sidii eegta lay yahaye Ooggii horey nagu kaceen adhi dillaalkiiye Dad iimaanka laga qaaday baa noo aloogsadaye Amakaagay goortay wankii adhaxda tuujeene Intaa weeye iyo ma'ahadii la is ilaaqaayey Asaraartankii baa qalbiga aad wax ii dhimaye Afka reer magaaluhu yaqaan waan ka oodnahaye Ii-maroojihii bay khatalay kii aan aaminaye Afar bawlad laga gooyey bay igu aluubeene Anigoo arkaayaa gacmaha laygu iibsadaye Kuwo boqonta ood laga sudhay ila ahaayeene Usha jeedal iyo suufaf bay igu illaaweene Ashcaartaba rag baa iga badshee idinku weydiiya Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abu-Salman Posted October 21, 2012 Mashallah, but let's aggregate those developments in the general section. I remember the town as a kind of legendary outpost where civilisation wanes but settled by "cousins" Burco has come a long way and business needs to be decentralised from Hargeysa.

Suldaanka Posted October 23, 2012 With average of $80 per head, the reer miyi got an excellent bargain for their animals. This will go a long way in stimulating the local economy. A lot of kids who might have not otherwise part-take in the Eid celebrations will do this year. Which is a very good thing. Hopefully it will only get better from here. Abu, Burco is still the same Burco with its unique character. But it has taken a number of steps in the right directions with particular regard to industrialization - the city now boasts a number of multi million dollar factories that supply not only the country but also export to the whole of the Horn subcontinent.
