  1. The so-called Somaliland can not be a viable state unless it becomes a begging basket. I hope your warlords in Hargeisa can be brave enough to acknowledge that EU and United Nations allocate their donations and earmark as to North west region, Togdheer, Sanaaag regions.. never mind what your warlords evade to the ears of your innocent people. Find out the facts and dare you inform the public.
