How do you know that you are Pure Somalilander

Post by Khalid Ali »

How do you know thats a good question , it is if you take a bit of effort to explain to others that they dont confuse you with our neighbors two weeks ago i was buying snacks at a Cambodian shop and the woman asked me where i originally was from and i told her i was from Somaliland and she said where is that and i explained in details i told the lady that if she sees a Somali or east African person always ask if he or she is from Somaliland. I know many Landers who would not go and explain to others when they are confused for other nationalities. This is how you distinguish pure Somalilanders with Somalilanders who are only Somaliland nationalist on 18 may.

Khalid good on you and that's the right spirit. At work everyone calls me Hargeisawi even my boss knows where Hargeisa is :up: :sland:

I normally tell them that I'm an Ethiopian of ethnic Somalilander. I never once told anyone that I was from Somalia.

Some of my white friends at times get confused and question me: "how can you be Lander but Ethiopian too?"

My answer: "Think of it like the Germans in Austria. I am like that. Hitler was both German and an Austrian and I am like that"

Then they go on about: "Oh so you understand Desalem's language right and Abdi's and Ayantu's"?

Answers: "You can call me Google translator with legs but I prefer Hargeisawi"

I even bring them Lander food every two weeks. I show them SL websites, on FB I share maps, history, everything with them. They are educated about the region and they thank me every day. The Habesha friends call me "the politician Hargeisawi" because I happen to know more about Ethiopia than them :up: Anigay lessons iga so dontan. "Who was Ras Wolde Selassie?" "Ma runba Oromadu waxay ka timi Madagascar?"

Good, i always explain so that every one knows the difference between the failed hutu country and Somaliland. They know about hargeisa and everything. I even see hutu who are so embarrassed to say they are from muuq disho and claim to be from djibouti.kkkkkk

even my dating for cadaan women profile shows off somaliland. somaliland flag waves over my roof in the city centre. i am sure somaliland flag is very popular in my city, because i put the name on it. loool. only refugee somalilanders claim from somalia. but most naturalized somalilanders dont hide their identity.

A pure Somalilander for me is one who is free from all form of cuqdad.
A pure Somalilander doesn't need to rub it on people's fcae.
A pure Somalilander is one that doesn't feel the need to look down on the South with an attitide of Superiority complex.
A pure Somalilander doesn't take solace in the suffering of the South.
A pure Somalilander is ONE THAT IS HUMBLE AND UNDERSTAND THE GOOD FORTUNE BESTOWED UPON HIM BY ALLAH!
A pure Somalilander is one tha knows aduunku waa laba bari and remembers evy now and then to say ALHAMDULILAH.

A pure Somalilander doesn't really have to prove anything to walalweyn wala COMBODIAN LADIES selling vegetables Image
