We are lucky to have been born in a country that is extremely rich in biodiversity. A country that is part of one of the largest forest areas in the world. Lush vegetation and wildlife that protect us and are an integral part of our heritage. Imagine now that we use these forest resources to transform our country and improve the living conditions of all Cameroonians. Imagine that we had a legal and formal logging sector. A sector formed by thousands of small-scale luggars that would create stable and well-paid jobs, pay taxes to finance schools and hospitals, and ensure the preservation of our forests for the benefit of our grandchildren. Small-scale and sustainable logging is essential today to ensure a balance between the ecological, social, and economic functions of our forest. Next time you by furniture, ask your carpenter to use timber of legal origin. Let's work together for the preservation of our forests and let's invest in quality products.
