    The Somaliland government has set timelines for the completion of the reconstruction process of the expansive Waheen market that was razed down in April.

    Once the plans are complete, the national committee will disburse 45% of funds for construction.

    “We are informing land owners of Waheen market who have not had the submitted their plans to do so immediately”, said the minister.
