Yeah, its global, but our culture makes things worse. A small example being a very well educated African being unable to look into the eyes of his interviewer...so he doesn't get the job. This being due to how he/she was brought up.Kwame Mensa-Bonsunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564356874518161776.post-26216451777714042962010-12-30T23:13:40.082+00:002010-12-30T23:13:40.082+00:00@ Nana Yaw Sarpong - Yes I agree that you have to ...@ Nana Yaw Sarpong - Yes I agree that you have to 'unlearn' much of what you are miseducated on in school in order to regain much of your intelligence.<br /><br />@ Baafoo - What you said is the crux of the matter. People have to take responsibility for their own education.<br /><br />@ Kwame Mensa-Bonsu - I am not sure of the point, but I maintain that the formal system is problematic. Your own point admits that you gain more from your home than your school. And the phenomenon is global - not just Ghanaian or African.The Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618359074984443470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564356874518161776.post-3673598767883294442010-12-29T23:37:59.812+00:002010-12-29T23:37:59.812+00:00It's our unquestioning, adult-worshipping cult...It's our unquestioning, adult-worshipping culture which, mainly,is the source of our downfall NY, not the educational system. Those who were brought up by modern liberal parents are able to operate anywhere. With the educational system, it depends on where in Ghana you were born, lived and the financial strength of your parents.Kwame Mensa-Bonsunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564356874518161776.post-71347083153442360302010-12-29T22:24:49.588+00:002010-12-29T22:24:49.588+00:00Radical, but true.

People have to take responsibility for their own education, especially in Ghana where there seems to be an intentional effort to stifle questioning.

Take me for example, I had had to rer-educate myself after receiving those basic tools. No one teachers how except what.
