Not sure if someone already posted this or not, but found it to be very informative.



P.S. How did Burco come to have a sizable Arab community decades ago and whatever became of them?

Arabs in burco? that's new to me bro. I knew arabs lived in all major coastal towns but I wasn't aware they lived in the hinterland

I'll watch the whole video when I get some time.

Most of Burco's Arab community now live in the UAE. Some of the names the former mayor mention are my uncles reer abti.

@Cumar - Imagine my surprise when the video mentioned it.

The Hereri & Hargeysa segments are very refreshing, you should check out the other ones as well when you get around to it.

Anarchist, yeah I watched this one and I enjoyed it very much



odaygan miskiinka ah, he is in his own little world, he hasn't got a clue outside his little tuulo - when asked what a nearby tuulo was called he said: "reer hebel hebel"

They properly fled in the wars like their counterparts in Berbera and some did not come back. There is also a small recent Pakistani/Indian Muslim community in Burco;
They mainly work in the pharmacies.

Yemenis lived all major towns, There was a sizable Yemenis in this town-------they fled when the war broke out, to my surprise they have returned within a year from Yemen, and regretted ever leaving. Yemen must be shitty place...
