Re: MAKING SMART DECISIONS – THE SECESSIONIST DECISION PROBLEM

Bro Kim's,

Your concerns are legitimate,  but putting yourself out of the country by creating your own artificial country called Ambazonia is not a strategy to fix such problems. 

We have to give give government time to respond to our demands. As a highly educated person,  you should understand better how governments respond to such demands. Go through the attachment and assess for yourself if the actions taken by government so far is not a move on the right direction. We are all critics if the government, but we should be constructive in our criticism. 

Thanks for your concerns.

Mr. Agbor Enow:

I don't know you personally.

It does not bother you that of all the Foreign Bureaus, you might only have 2 or 3 S.C. as Ambassadors? You mean there are no qualified S.C. who can be sent to represent the Country as Ambassadors? Just to let you know if you keep blind eyes and ears to Marginalization, you become a Slave forever.

MAKING SMART DECISIONS – THE SECESSIONIST DECISION PROBLEM

 

Everyone who have engagedin a serious negotiation understands that a good solution to a well posedproblem is nearly always more satisfying than an excellent solution

to a poorly conceivedproblem. Whereas the Anglophone lawyers and teachers defined some excellentproblems facing the Anglophone communities, and separated the people(Anglophones vs. Francophones) from t he problems, they failed to stop the manyfailed secessionist and irredentist movements from hijacking their good cause.

 

After the secessionists stolethe cause of Cameroon lawyers and teachers, any further negotiation was made untenable,because the secessionists frame each issue as a single, rather than a joint searchfor objective criteria. Moreover, by invoking and declaring the creation of anelusive ambozonia state, the secessionists failed to reason and be open toreason on which standards to choose when negotiating with their government. Inaddition, the government of the Republic of Cameroon, like any other astutenegotiating body, will never yield to pressure, but only to principles.

 

My simple research pointsto the fact that the government of junta Paul Biya has been engaging theteachers and lawyers, and actually resolving most of the issues they raised.While all these issues might not be solved in a single day, or be solved to thecomplete desires of the lawyers and teachers, the inroads made so far is anindication that the government is listening to the chagrins of the Anglophones.Below are some of the actions taken by the regim e of junta Biya to fix theAnglophone problem:

 

Actions already taken and being undertaken by theGovernment to resolve the concerns raised by the Anglophone Lawyers.-

 

1)      Preparationsare underway for the holding of the National Forum on the judiciary.

 

2)     TheOHADA Treaty and other OHADA instruments have been published in English.
