  I saw a beautiful program on Natgeowild titled "wild China". It showed how natural and beautiful part of the country is. The country is going at length to preserve endangered species. Yet Ghanaians have allowed Chinese to mine and pollute our rivers and landscape. This must stop immediately and if the Chinese embassy is unhappy so be it. Galamsey must end now

  No more get-them-for-sale (galamsey) in GHANA - period even if the United Nations sanctions it.

  If galamsey is illegal yet OUT OF CONTROL, with the useless authorities verbal-farting, then what is needed is RESTRICTING and LIMITING areas where
  prospectors can go and explore and exploit!
