France : Destination For Several Cameroonians

Thousands of nationals travel to France for studies, business and tourism, with much to show as fruits.

France unquestionably happens to be a travel destination opted for by thousands of Cameroonians for one reason or the other. There are an estimated 60,000 Cameroonians with resident authorisation (temporal or long term) in the northwestern country of Europe. Of the total number, about 7,000 Cameroonian students are on further studies. Specialising in a particular educational domain, enhancing a skill in fashion and design, music and arts, the search for more avenues in the sports and military domains, are some of the reasons which account for the movement of Cameroonians to France. This best explains the cultural partnership that exists between the two countries signed in May 2009 in Yaounde. And of course the desire to discover the beautiful landscape, charming French castles, exquisite cuisine and the much treasured museums in Paris cannot be left out. 
As concerns education, statistics reveal that the 7,000 Cameroonian nationals there are specialising in various medical fields such as pharmaceuticals, emergency medicine, diagnostic radiology and medical genetics. They are also involved in engineering studies (chemical, civil, mechanical, industrial and electrical). Some have upon completion of their studies returned to Cameroon to share their expertise while others have opened business centres for themselves. 
Some Cameroonians, as a passion, get recruited into the French military. The different corps of the French military have Cameroonians therein especially in the navy and air force. 
Known for its high fashion and design standards, several Cameroonians who have an interest in pursuing a career in that aspect travel to France to have their knowledge and skills updated. They participate fashion displays where they meet and exchange with top class designers. There are some Cameroonians who have created a niche for themselves in the world of fashion in France.
