ALAN KYEREMATENG'S CANDIDATURE FOR THE WTO DIRECTOR GENERAL POSITION IS A BIG JOKE, AND SHOULD NOT BE VIEWED ALONG NATIONALISTIC LINES, BUT ALONG THE POTENTIAL CANDIDATE'S MANAGERIAL AND PRAGMATIC ABILITIES TO EXERT HIS/HER "WIN-WIN" NEGOTIATION SKILLS ON REPS OF THE WESTERN POWERS IN ORDER TO BRING ABOUT A LASTING CHANGE TO THE STATUS QUO, WHERE AFRICAN COUNTRIES ARE ALWAYS CONSIDERED DUMPING GROUNDS FOR FINISHED PRODUCTS FROM THE WEST AND SUPPLIERS OF RAW MATERIALS ON THE CHEAP, AS OPPOSED TO MAINTAINING A COMMONSENSE BALANCE OF TRADE, AMONGST MANY OTHERS.
AFRICANS SERVING IN INTERNATIONAL ORGANISATIONS ARE THERE JUST FOR THE US DOLLARS, NOT FOR THE BENEFIT OF AFRICA OR THEIR PAYMASTERS.
THE TENURES OF KOFI ANNAN AT THE UN AND EGYPTIAN MOHAMMED EL-BARADEI AT THE UN NUCLEAR ENERGY AGENCY DID NOTHING WHATSOEVER FOR AFRICA.
WHAT A SHAME!!
LIKE OUR USELESS AFRICAN HEADS OF STATE AND OTHER BOSSES AT THE AU, ADB AND THE MANY OTHER USELESS REGIONAL (AFRICAN) ORGANISATIONS, AFRICAN BOSSES WORKING IN INTERNATIONAL ORGANISATIONS ARE JUST THERE TO MAKE A NAME FOR THEMSELVES AND BLOW-UP THEIR BANK STATEMENTS, PERIOD!!!
REMEMBER THAT THE RECENT AU HEADQUARTERS IN ETHIOPIA OR WHATEVER WAS BUILT FOR AFRICA BY CHINA AND CHINESE CONTRACTORS.
EVEN THE NEW SEAT OF GHANA'S GOVERNMENT WAS BUILT FOR GHANA BY NO LESS A COUNTRY THAN INDIA BY INDIAN CONTRACTORS.
MIND YOU, THIS HAPPENED WHEN ALAN KYEREMATENG WAS A CABINET MINISTER UNDER THIEF KUFUOR'S NPP RULE.
WHAT A SHAME!!!
ALAN KYEREMATENG WAS ASSOCIATED WITH EMPRETEC GHANA, SO WHAT?
HE WAS GHANA'S AMBASSADOR TO THE US, SO WHAT?
AFTERALL, IN GHANA, PEOPLE GET SUCH POSTS NOT ON MERIT AND A TRACK RECORD OF POSITIVE ACHIEVEMENTS, BUT BASED ON THEIR POLITICAL, TRIBAL AND "OLD-BOYISM" CONNECTIONS, PERIOD.
THIS ALONE SHOWS HOW USELESS AFRICAN LEADERS ARE!!!
REVERSE SUCH POSITIONS GOING TO AN ISRAELI, MEXICAN, INDIAN OR PAKISTANI, AND YOU'LL SEE THOSE COUNTRIES ROBBING SHOULDERS WITH THE NUCLEAR POWERS OF THE "FIRST WORLD".
GOOD IDEA. KEEP IT UP
