Re: [cameroon_politics] CAMEROON HAS SERIOUS PROBLEMS

Ta Mfar Mishe/Mishe Ta Mfar,
 
Kudos t you.
 
You do see and you can always put your finger on the problem.
If all of the things you propose are implemented, that your Kamerun
can become a country-otherwise, it remains a group of scroungers surving on falsehood.

When we unite with our mouths with actual actions, we can carry an elephant, and have that change which is long overdue.

I still stand by my firm belief that the problems of Cameroon can only be resolved if the following should happen (and I sincerely don't see it happening within the foreseeable future).
 
The first impediment to any meaningful political transformation is to SOLVE once and for ever the ANGLOPHONE quagmire. Political analysts, armed-chair critics, Internet pundits, CPDM apparatchiks, Anglophone "Elites" and what have you; can conjecture whatever they like in their intellectual crystal balls but the ANGLOPHONE thing aient going away anytime soon.
 
Politicians can dance around this issue, let them call Cameroon: "Republique Unie, Republique Federale or Republique "Whatever"...so long as the real issues and demands of "Anglophones" (Southern Cameroonians, that is) are not addressed with straight faced honesty...the CPDM and other Opportunistic Profiteurs will continue to ride rough shod on the backs of impoverished citizens and continuously smile their way to their various illicit Bank accounts.
 
The other main problem I have identified but which is a "Non-Issue" to many I have opined with...Is the existence of almost 254 ethnic cultural groups in our country. Ewondos, Bulus, Etons (Betis) don't and will never trust Bamilekes (for whatever reasons) Bassas are suspicious of the rest of Cameroonians, Douala people think they are superior to the rest of us; SW are suspicious of NW, no one wants "Nordistes" any where near Political Pawa again anytime in the nearest future; Eastern Province people are looked upon like sub-human species some even calling them "Pigmies".
 
Even inside the subcultural groups, there is so much Divide and Hate that (a few examples:)People of Dchang Foreke or Penka Michel are prepared to go physically violent with their brothers of Lemou Bafou or Lenang Menoua. Il y a une grande difference entre les Bamis du NDE de Bangangte, Balengou ou Bachingou ou Bazou. Les Bafangs of Bana think they are superior to the autochtones Bafangs of Bafang centre; Manyu people only have an agreement when there is a disagreement amongst brothers from Ossing, Eyum-Ejock, Bakebe and other Manfe Overside. No one  sees eye to eye with his brother of sister. The amount of Hate and animosity amongst people of the same area is manifest in the number of factions existing in the various Cultural  Groupings. Go Figure.
 
If anyone can galvanize these individuals to coalesce around a Central Federating ideology; then the authorities in Yaounde MIGHT start fearing that Cameroonians could work out possible strategies to oust them. Since in my opinion, that is a far fetched possibility; those dreaming that a Burkina Faso - like syndrome could occur in Cameroon should think again.
 
Cameroon Diaspora cannot deliver the goods because of this same factors outline here above. The Cameroon Civil Society is the most "Incompetent" in African parlance because it is composed of "Leaders" whose questionable Double Speak mentality is at the route cause of CPDM intransigence and complete "I don't Care" attitude towards its citizens.
 
The Cameroon Military is a microcosm of the same factors hitherto explained. Anglophones are completely marginalized and even nonexistent in the Military. Can protagonists of "There is no Anglophone Problem in Cameroon" tell us why all Military documents and Commands are in French?
 
Last year, the Government sent out 15 Officers (Colonel Rank) for a three week intensive Training on Policy & Strategic Thinking here in Washington DC. Not a single "Anglophone" was selected for that Training (which by the way was done in English). Even at the "Anglophone"  Police Academy in Mutengene, Lectures are delivered in the French language. What kind of nonsense is that? Can Francophones not equally take lectures in English (in Cameroon) as they do when they go "En Stage de Perfectionnement' to the United States and United Kingdom? Something does not add up.
 
Therein lies the whole quagmire of Cameroon Politics. No more no less. I know the usual folks will tag it too simplistic and a display of the lack of understanding of the dynamics called Cameroon. For crying out loud, tell us what you think are the reasons why CPDM has been waxing stronger and stronger as the years turn into decades of inept governance. Na all dat.
