The Camerounian goverment has the duety to develop this part of land, they have not to justify theier lazyness by saying that Pygmees like forest, that is a lie, they would like to have schools and hospitals, and live in a modern, safe and place

@Kamerounaise But don't let them develop it by kicking the Baka from their forest and denying them the benefits of development as has happened all over the world to indigenous people.
They are happier with forest and no hospitals than with no forest and no access to schools and hospitals that are built. Unfortunately usually they end up with no forest and no schools or hospitals. Just acres of oil palm which belong to multinationals.

Happy to see you back at Gbiné again,as I knew you would be! Lovely music,to be sure! Funny thing,where I work,we have these blue plastic conga shaped containers with black plastic lids,and I thought,"what a great drum!",so I played one. Then,I see this video,and one of the fellows is playing the EXACT same container! With much more skill,I might add,haha! Anyway,thanks for sharing this one,its wonderful!

We saw a guy selling the containers on a street corner in Yaounde and knew they'd make a good drum, so took one down when we last went
