The High Cost of Living In Cameroun A CALL FOR Concern

The colonial administration of LRC is on stormy waters now. Civil society organizations are bent on defending the road map governing their structures. Consumer protection rights groups just like other associations want a better market situation for the consumers they are called to protect. Gone are those days when Camerounaises would sit back and grumble while dictator Biya and his surrogates swindled taxpayers' money at will. This is were we will begin the full briefings of Undaunted tonight..I am ONYEE OKPALA And Star Smart is here as always. How are you doing Star. The hardship and the tough living conditions plaguing LRC as a result of bad governance have pushed a conglomerate of a trade union to put the Yaounde regime into a tight corner for some adjustments if not all services will be grounded every Wednesday starting February 15, 2023.

Will LRC be able to make the necessary adjustments for the betterment of the common man, given the colonial Biya administrators just like the superior Paul Biya have sold their consciences to the devil? A conglomerate of trade unions and civil society organizations have in a joint letter called on the colonial administration of LRC to make some adjustments toward making life better for the common man who is barely surviving. Meeting on February 3, 2023, the member organizations of this collective, notably from the sectors of education, transport, the defense of consumers rights, the defense of human rights, the fight and the promotion of the interest of youths as well as women, of all suffering categories in Cameroun, after a careful examination of the economic, social and security contexts, a critical but objective reading of the 2023 financial law as well as the measures announced on January 31, 2023, by the Secretary General of the colonial Prime Minister's service to accompany the set law, established several findings.

These findings were duly represented on the documents these trade unions and civil society organizations tabled to the colonial government of La Republique du Cameroun. To remedy the findings, the document equally had a must-do for the colonial LRC government for there to be no strike action. Failure to comply therefore all workers of the private sector and civil Servants will stop going to work on Mondays for a period of one month, that is from February 15 to March 15, 2023. The points that colonial LRC administration must do before February 15, that is within 9 days include:

* the increase of the SMIG from 36, 270 FRS to 150, 000 FRS and its indexation to the annual inflation rate.

* the revaluation of retirement pensions by the colonial Presidential degree of 2016 and their indexation to the annual inflation budget.

* the adoption and implementation of a massive recruitment plan for at least 100, 000 young graduates in the Civil service, public and para-public enterprises. The other must be captured by the jointly signed document.

All eyes are now turned towards Yaounde, to see if the stubborn Biya's government will move an inch for her citizens to have a better life.
