interview
Yang Philemon, the new Prime Minister talked to the press shortly after his appointment.
You have just been appointed Prime Minister, Head of Government. What are your general reactions?
I am very happy. I was not expecting this. And I thank the Head of State very much for the appointment.
And your plan of action .
Well, about my plans, I will see what work has to be done and I will learn as I go along. I cannot tell you what I am going to do exactly. However, I am confident that with the whole government and all the Cameroonians, we will work together and succeed together.
Do you have an idea of what your task entails?
The task entails a lot of work. This is a developing country. So the task is not going to be easy. I do not think I am going to produce what is impossible. If it were not difficult, it will not be difficult to make developing countries move forward. In fact, all the countries in the world have the difficult task of running themselves and doing things the right way.
