Some of you don't even know northern region, you only see pictures of it on TV or social media.  Before you look down upon us take a trip to the three northern regions and take a close look at us very well.is just that the media concentrate on the ugly side and ignore the good side, which I know one day, just one day you will see the good side of the north.
