  • Afghanistan´s culture is not undeveloped! Afghanistan is known for it´s rich culture! If his own personal culture is undeveloped, then I understand why he is saying that crap!

  • What a well spoken and respectful people.

  • @xabamsar they are hazaras, my friend. this poor people are working hard. even more than tayiks or pashtuns, do you know why? because they suffer the racism of mostly of afghans.
