[quote="Luq_Ganane"]A/Wahab,
Again El Wak is another border town. Basically the way it works in Gedo is the closer to the border, the more business activity and the more prosperous, but at the same time it is more dangerous and volatile. Places like Luq, Bardhere, Garbaharey etc. have always been, and still are peaceful cities, RELATIVE to Somalia ofcourse. Furturmore, the Marehan, Rahanwein, Awliayahan, of Gedo, Middle Jubba and Bay/Bakol have always got along, and are very peaceful people traditionaly. Unfortunately the civil war had disasterous affects on Somalis. Former passive, peaceful people have learned how to fight for their survival, and cities have become homogeneous, as people cannot live with each other. People talk about peace, but the social ills, destruction and distrust might take generations to heal.[/quote]
Excellently put. You should do a thesis on it.
