I am hoping that Charles Kong Djou does a good job. New blood tends to bring changes. Time will tell I guess.
I like him a lot. I think that it is nice that government seems to be swinging back to younger leaders with families. It puts them more in touch with the trials that so many families are currently experiencing.
