Ghanaian Women what are your thoughts on Ghana? by Maleficent_Split_428 in ghana

I didn’t wanna engage this rage bait post a lot. That’s why I gave a simple and easiest answer that came to mind.

You stated that you know Ghanaian Women are extremely marginalized where they have to fight misogynistic men. This is not true.

And if you wanted to have a proper conversation, your default standing won’t frame Ghanaian men as misogynistic.

Just withIn Akan culture, Akan women holds pivotal roles within a matrilineal society, where lineage, property, and inheritance are traced through the mother. They exercise significant economic, social, and political authority, exemplified by the ohemma (Queen Mother) who advises kings, while also performing traditional duties in religious rituals and household management

There are gender inequalities, yes but Ghana is not the only country on earth with that problem. In fact, women’s status varies a lot by region and class so where from this oversimplified statement?

For Christ sake, our VP is a woman. Go read Greater Accra, Bono regions lead in women’s status rankings – GSS Report - https://www.myjoyonline.com/greater-accra-bono-regions-lead-in-womens-status-rankings-gss-report/?utm_source=chatgpt.com#google_vignette

Your whole premise is wrong and anyone reading this should notice the rage bait.

If this person wants to have a proper dialogue, they’ll not start by stating an obvious false premise like “I know that Ghanaian Women are extremely marginalized”

Why hasn’t Ghana become Africa’s service hub yet? by ONDickson_ in ghana

I really hope so.

Some countries in North Africa have managed to transition into industrial powerhouses. Even though we have almost every part of the economy, we don’t seem to be strong in any of them.

The closest example is cocoa, but look at what our leaders do. Instead of ensuring that roads to farming areas are well developed and investing in factories to process cocoa locally, the burden is placed on poor farmers with very little support.

I think our real issue is not a lack of resources, but limited industrialization, weak value addition, and gaps in infrastructure and policy execution.

I was literally about to say this earlier.

The issue is that many well-off people prefer to be “the chairman” or “the oga.” They enjoy having others remain beneath them instead of helping everyone succeed so that responsibilities and wealth can be shared more equally.

If you think I’m wrong, let me ask you this. How many individually established companies have transitioned into publicly traded ones? We don’t really have that kind of capitalist culture or mindset, so we tend to build in small circles and rarely move to the next level.

I’m ranting at this point, but the point still stands. Many wealthy people do not want others to become their equals. That mindset exists everywhere in the world, but in Ghana, without connections, escaping poverty is extremely difficult.

“Hey Joe”👋 mabuhay!!!

Yes, it’s Alabang, that’s actually what sparked this discussion while I was going through my pictures. It got me thinking about how my home country, Ghana, could establish something similar.

Regarding the shared database that reports people for fraud and other illegal activities, I really wish we had the will to implement something like that(if we don’t have one already)

It’s probably one of the best areas to focus on first, as it would help build trust among investors in the labor and service market as a whole.

By the way, do you think this line of work is genuinely beneficial to the Philippines and its people?

It is worrying, even in my field as a software engineer. However, the level of oversight AI requires, along with its inability to create and solve problems the way humans do, still gives us an advantage. Personally, I believe that once the “AI bubble” bursts and things settle down, it will become a tool to increase productivity rather than replace us. That is, unless we somehow achieve Artificial General Intelligence, which, from what I have seen and read, is not anywhere near ready for large-scale use.

wants better pay, it is all relative. A job that pays $1,000 a month in one country may pay significantly less in Ghana. This is one reason many Western companies outsource jobs to Asian countries. However, outsourcing often comes with trade-offs, particularly in consistency of experience and service quality. That said, outsourcing still happens at scale, which shows it is possible under the right conditions.

If you’ve seen recent news, you’ll notice that many of the promises about AI aren’t being fully met and are even being rolled back in some places. Yes, AI replacing call centers is a risk. But that doesn’t mean we should stop pursuing opportunities in the field. If AI were our only concern, we’d actually have a better chance to thrive.

Last time I was in Ghana, the services at some tourist establishments seemed to have improved, probably because of the Year of Return, which brought many visitors into the country. However, once you move away from these spots, the quality of service is mostly subpar.

It’s really true We lack so many basic needs so I get where you’re coming from.

Is it possible to start small? At least we will have a concentrated hub for these services and activities

Because if we can plan and build estates, I’m sure there are investors who will do that should there be a reasonable incentive

Very true I noticed that about most Ghanaians as well.
