It is not a secret that many countries around the world have fast-tracked their development from multi talents or better still expertise. Prominent among such countries is the United States of America which is tapping young brains around the world every year through various lottery schemes. It is thus very obvious that our country Cameroon has to make use of its citizens in the Diaspora who have acquired refined skills in so many domains of life. Many of such individuals will likely fast track the development of our Country which is still in dying need of certain competences.
For this to happen, government has to review its current position on double nationality. It is easy to argue and rightly so, that most Cameroonians who have taken other nationalities did so for survival reasons but still feel one hundred percent Cameroonian because their blood is still tied to this country. The Government also has to make the coming back of Cameroonians home very attractive.
This can be done through easy accessibility to land, reduction of custom levies on importations, improvement of the business climate and provision of security to investors if possible. On this score, we wish to commend the work done so far by Members of the Parliamentary Network for the Diaspora Discentralized and Cross - Boarder Cooperation, Rep-cod.
Members of Rep-cod have received so many Cameroonians from abroad and have used their meetings to solidify the bridge between Cameroon and it's sons and daughters living abroad. No country can ever develop without its Disapora and so we hope that our Government will craft out many more open-arms policies that can continue to bring its children back home to invest.
