Bilateral relation between Cameroon and Norway develops

Cooperation ties between Cameroon and Norway have been revisited in Yaoundé with the presentation of a new Honorary Consul General. Welcoming the new Consul General, the Governor of the Centre Region, Paul Naseri Bea, urged him to continue promoting the good bilateral relations already existing between Cameroon and Norway.

It should be recalled that cooperation between Cameroon and Norway had accelerated with the signing on June 30, 2015 of a memorandum of understanding followed on August 28, 2015 by a commercial contract between the relevant Cameroonian administrations and Norwegian private partners in the framework of technical, economic and financial assistance from the Norwegian Agency Eksportkreditt.

On January 13, 2017, Cameroon and the Norwegian bank GIEK signed a credit-buyer agreement in the amount of 37.8 billion CFA, intended to finance the construction, extension and reinforcement of the drinking water supply networks in three cities, as reported by Journal du Cameroun.
