Sudan - story

The dog, the goat, and the donkey

Once upon a time, a dog, a goat and a donkey got on a bus. The donkey handed over the exact fare. The dog handed over too much money, but the conductor didn’t have any change to give him. And the goat refused to pay at all.

That’s why when you drive through Sudan today, the donkey just stands there without interest, the goat runs away so he doesn’t have to pay, but the dog rushes up to you barking and demanding his money back.
