Cousin,
Why do you approach every topic/article you write as an academic exercise?
Need we hear an earful about the origins of cooperatives etc? Of what use are all the historical premise of your cooperative subject?
Your articles are overly long, tedious and boring, when peppered with listology.
Once again you've proven to be shallow in pursuit of facts to bolster your article. Your over reliance on Wikipedia is really pathetic.
You want to tell me you're so bereft of ideas and knowledge on your chosen subject that only copied references from On-Line sources will make you whole? All that excessive schooling brought you no education.
Don't be offended by this criticism because most of your articles lack originality, especially those long and windy passages of listology telling us the obvious.
Now let's get to dissecting your article and the numerous silly suggestion you pose.
I'll speak about what I know about cooperatives in the US. Most the cooperatives here are Credit Union Banks to cater to various career professionals, civic groups and community associations.
Regarding farm product cooperative, it's rather de-emphasized here as trade associations control most of those products that enter the food processing chain.
You make out Coops to be the be all cocksure solution to economic problem. They're not. Banks lend money at interest and they can easily fail if borrowers are unable to payback their loans with interest. Coops banks are not isolated economic engines that generate prosperity but depend on the larger domain of economic activity.
Most Ghanaians in the diaspora have individually established business have no need for a Coop Ghanaian Bank.
You wrote:
"As Ghanaian Diasporeans, we can develop our cooperatives and approach IFAD, IOM and World Bank for financial assistance, of course with well-developed business plans. Right now, there is a Ghana Diaspora Desk which has been set up within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, with an office at the seat of government at Flagstaff House"
That's one way to kill a successful business. The begging mentality of approaching foreign organization hasn't left you. Change that mentality of yours, cousin.
This time I'm going to cut you a slack and leave others to continue criticizing your needlessly long article.
You were kidding when you wrote the following, right?
"We Diasporeans need to partner with government in developing our country and making it far better than we found it."
As I said before I'll let others gore you on this one. Just be still, it wouldn't hurt.
Saaaalute, from forehead to waist and foot stomp. wham bam.
Greetings.

An academic worth his salt will notice a lot of content here which is very original, and I have followed the academic rigour of referencing and in-text referencing. Only an illerate person or half-baked scholar like LIZ and a hard-nosed cynic and sceptic like Paa Kwesi Mintah will make heavy weather of a well-written article with authoritative sources cited. I have here laboured to research and add a lot of content from my own knowledge field of teaching for 43 years. Paa Kwesi and the LAZYBONE LIZ are the only strangers in Jerusalem who mistaken the trees for the forest.

My former English Professor, Dr DePauw would have given you an” F” for wasting his time. Did you not realize that people read this? Better luck next time. What a Shame!!!

Please see reference made at the bottom of article. That is not plagiarism or intellectual theft. You seem to be in utter quandary what plagiarism is. Total shame on you for misleading the public.

Clearly not a run of the mill Ghanaweb essay.
To that extent, very informative and refreshing!
Thanks, Mr. Kwesi Atta Sakyi!
