Congratulations to the Ministry of Arts and Culture

Congratulations to the Ministry of Arts and Culture. It is amazing to see how thoughtful people suddenly becomes when it concerns a situation beneficial to them.

I was intrigued when i heard about the Laws passed by the ministry of Arts and Culture, given that they have never really helped anyone in or related to that sector siiiince i realized there was such a sector!

Then without warning baaaaam! they are concerned with the functioning of the ministry ,trying to regulate stuff here and there, everything needing the approval of the government to operate ! Bullshit!!

How does all these benefit the Entertainment Industry. As if things have not been hard enough! How do you even pass laws that practically handicap your progress.

I expected to see a law prohibiting the playing of foreign music in bars restaurants etc.not laws that have nothing to benefit their Art.

Below is the explanation given for the laws passed. hmmm wuna epp me checkam or na me i no sabi big book!

The Supposed Reason for The Bills passed by our Gofmen!!!

According to the report by Elvis Teke of CRTV, two bills have been tabled at the National Assembly aimed at modifying and improving upon the functioning of cultural and artistic associations in the country.

The bills draft bills modify and supplement certain dispositions of Law No 90/53 of 19 December 1990 relating to the freedom of association.

It seeks to give a special mode of functioning of artistic and cultural associations, and give government the opportunity to explore the vast potential of the arts and culture sector in Cameroon.

The law will not only provide a legal platform for associations to function but will equally give that freedom to the sector to boom.

The law gives power to regulate all cultural and artistic groups as well as provide a scope of functioning which must be strictly respected.

According to parts of the draft : “Any national or foreign association which wishes to reach the statute of cultural and artistic association, must obtain beforehand, an approval of the ministry in charge of Arts and Culture”.

If adopted, stakeholders say the law will blow a new wind of professionalism as well as mark a new turnaround in the cultural milieu.

Wait oh! There`s More!! wow!Congratulations to the Ministry of Arts and Culture!

The bill seeks to organize specific management methods for artistic and cultural associations.

According to the bill, “Political Parties, Trade Unions, Sports associates, nongovernmental organization as well as artistic and cultural associations shall be managed by separate instruments.”

Minister Paul Atanga Nji explained that bill seeks to unlock the huge potential of the arts and culture sectors in order to foster development of cultural enterprises and industries that will create wealth and jobs.

ISayThatWot

Bill to amend and supplement some provisions of the law of freedom of associations paved the way for the drafting of another bill to regulate Artistic and Cultural Associations in Cameroon.

It defended at the Cultural Affairs Committee at the National Assembly by the Minister of Arts and Culture, Bidoung Mpkatt.

He explained that bill seeks to professionalize the arts and culture sector and revitalize the artistic and cultural movement in the country. It will also professionalize the sector in a bid to create jobs and wealth.

Under the bill, Artistic and cultural associations including companies, Union, Guilds and Federations will be placed under the supervision of the Ministry of Arts and Culture.

The associations will be formed and managed freely in accordance to the law. The Ministry also gives approval to national and foreign association wishing to function as Artistic and Cultural associations.
