  Do not surrender the film industry to foreigners.
  
  We need a progressive policy. All adverts in Ghana must be created by wholly owned Ghanaian businesses and the songs and celebrities in the adverts must be wholly Ghanaian. The celebrities and musicians must receive royalties. All the wholly owned Ghanaian entities must use wholly owned Ghanaian banks like ADB.
  
  We must move into the era of music/movies as a service (MAAS). At least 7 out of every 10 songs, movies and TV series played on our television stations, radio stations and entertainment centres must be wholly Ghanaian and must be produced in Ghana. These stations and entertainment centres must pay on a monthly or annual basis royalties to the Ghanaian artists. The amounts paid must be reasonable taking into consideration the profits of the entertainment establishments. However they must not pay any money whatsoever to the foreign artists because of the negative effect it would have on our GDP. The Ghanaian artists must use wholly owned Ghanaian banks like ADB. Many people can recall great shows like: Kukurantumi-road to Accra, Ultimate paradise, By the fireside, I told you so, things we do for love, Akan drama with osofo dadzie, obra and co, home sweet home, TV theatre, Dr Paa Bobo´s songs etc
  
  There is lack of will and this must change.

  I think FIPAG lack ideas to help move the movie industry forward. Some of FIPAG laws are among other things that are pushing some producers out of the field. And I believe "(I stand to be corrected)" that is what Mr. Sarfo Socrates was referring to as an industry has been created to kill an industry. FIPAG needs a new face with a fresh ideas. Some month ago, Mr. Asare Hackman was hush on the Kumasi movie producers asking them to pay tax to the FIPAG, a diabolic movie to suppress the Kumasi movie producers. And today, here stands the same person counting Ghana movie industry sustainability on Kumasi production which will soon goes down if FIPAG laws on Kumawood did not change. God Bless Ghana.
