Even simple cataract operation that can be done at Korle-Bu, the Ghanaian elites would even go to shitty and dirty place like Indian to get it done.
It looks like anywhere but Ghana!

Why do you think these useless chiefs can't criticize the demonic government of John & Ibrahim Mahama? They have all been thoroughly corrupted by this regime, and survive courtesy of government handouts (bribes). How can you bite the hand that feeds you? This whole trip was funded at the expense of the Ghanaian tax payer. Until we rid ourselves of this discredited institution of chieftaincy, Ghanaians will continue to suffer.

The Bank of Ghana (BOG) has no Eastern Regional headoffice. The BOG must ask for land from the King of Akyem (Okyehene) to construct this building. I don´t believe that the BOG has accurate data on the economic activity in the at least 12 Akyem districts which make up more than half the population on the region. The GDP and GNI of these Akyem districts are very high. They stem from:
Gold mining
Diamond mining
Cocoa
Oil Palm (the largest in West Africa)
Timber
Software development
etc
The money supply and capital in the at least 12 Akyem districts are wholly inadequate. BOG must remove impediments to the setting up of rural banks in these districts and encourage ADB and GCB to open branches in these districts.
The government must further ensure that wholly owned Ghanaian banks, including rural banks, get at least 80% of the banking revenue.

The good King was misquoted. I was present at the meeting and below is an excerpt of the response I wrote to the newspaper that carried the story
The Editor,
Times Of India
Ahmedabad
KIND ATTN: Mr. Bharat Desai
Dear Sir,
This is with reference to the news article published in your newspaper with headlines "Dry Gujarat a royal challenge".
I represent Park Agrotech Ghana Ltd. His Majesty Okyehene Osagyefo Amoatia Ofori Panin II is on a working tour to India on our invitation.
The interview reported in the article was conducted on 1st of November in the afternoon at Diva Eye Institute in the presence of the doctors of the institute and the undersigned.
We are shocked to read the contents of the article. The reporter who interviewed His Majesty Okyehene Osagyefo Amoatia Ofori Panin II has MISQUOTED the facts of the interview.
The interview was organized by the Eye Hospital to showcase Ahmedabad as an emerging destination for affordable health care. Most of the time the discussion was centered around it. Gujarat being a dry state was discussed in the meeting more from point of view of inconvenience to foreign investors and the resultant loss of revenue happening to the exchequer due to the prohibition. His Majesty was appreciative of prohibition in the state when it was brought to his notice about the resultant socio-cultural effects.
The Quotes by the reporter on "...booze", "...role reversal" , "as much mineral water...." "In Ghana..." and "I am His Majesty..." in the said article was never spoken by His Majesty.
We request you to kindly take cognizance of this ill reporting and ask the reporter to tender an official apology to His Majesty immediately.
We are also forwarding you a letter issued by an officer from His Majesty's office.
Thanking You.
Best Regards,
Lalit Mishra
CEO
Park Agrotech Ghana Ltd.

Foolish man. Can't you see that this story has no basis. Why insult the Okyenhene.
There is no way my wise king will say something like that.
I live in India and I saw him on local TV news. He did not say those things.

So do every person with some higher post in Ghana - they all travel abroad when the are sick. Some will even travel abroad to have their tooth removed!
The same will preach patroitism, less dependency on foreign goods etc.

If only he and our other leaders would make Building top-notch Hospitals, with well paid Staff, a priority in Ghana, he would not have to travel half-way around the World to operate on his eye and cry about the lack of alcohol.
What a shallow demand to cry about!! You are almost losing your eyesight and what you care about is Booze?
He might as well not have wasted resources for the operation, then, and just sat back in his decadent luxury at home to indulge in the frivolous drinking of alcohol and go blind!
What a leader! How much of a role model does such a leader serve our young?
Long Live Ghana!!!
