We your compatriots schooling and
working in Wuhan~ Hubei Province in China, bring our warm wishes for the year
2020. We pray for good health, happiness
and peace in our fatherland.
Your excellency,
We are writing to you directly,
because the situation forces us to do so outside the established protocol.
Indeed we are Cameroonian
nationals residing in the People’s Republic of China where for the most part we
are students and workers.
We are here to steal the flame of
knowledge in order to come and help our country overcome the challenges of
development.
Your Excellency, we are about
three hundred (300) Cameroonian residents in Hubei Province which happens to be
the epicenter of the Coronavirus 2019-nCov epidemic that is currently affecting
our host country and others.
With shopping centers, markets, and transportation
at a standstill, we are therefore very anxious about the future of events.
Wuhan has been in quarantine since 23 January 2020 Mr President. Despite our
many approaches (phone calls and correspondences) to the Cameroonian Embassy in
Beijing, we remain without news or official answers to reassure us or give
humanitarian instructions.
Your Excellency,
The Chinese government is working
to contain this virus but however, it continues to gain ground and psychosis
too.
Our frustration is even greater
when our colleagues from neighbouring countries receive both moral and physical
support from their hierarchy. We refuse to believe that we have been abandoned,
which is why we want to seize this opportunity to cry out for help from you.
We wish to suggest that we be
provided with a Hotline or Emergency number for all Cameroonians in China via
the Embassy.
Above all, Your Excellency, we pray to be
provided with the most urgent necessities at this time of crisis: masks,
disinfectants and food. Most shops have been emptied and many of us have
already exhausted our reserves and are completely stranded.
We know as our father, you cannot
see your children being confronted with such an unfortunate situation without being moved. Help us, Your
Excellency, we pray you.
We would have loved to be
evacuated from here, but understand that circumstances may not permit, and so
kindly pray to be assisted with the basic necessities that can sustain us here
till things get back to normal.
We are confident, Mr. President,
that this message will reach you in good faith.
