    Hi Emmanuel, Thank you for this work, I am an Ivorian, Ivorians and Liberians are brothers. Liberians are welcome in Ivory Coast. God bless Liberia.

    The government needs to build all of Liberia's boarder with modern infrastructure, pave all the bordering roads and areas. Negotiate collaborate with bordering nations to build modern bridges between Liberia and it is bordering countries because the borders trade between the nations help commerce of Liberia grow.

      Most of the people in power are useless! Imagine the Speaker of the house of representatives paying shit load of money just for his entourage to cross in comfort using the paved roads in Ivory Coast to get to his impoverished constituents! That is exactly what is going on! Shame! Corruption kills, no joke!

      You're right, Africa major problem are lacks of infrastructure .
      No good roads network in many parts of Africa continent.
      And that's why the economy can't growth as supposed to be

    Thank you Mister Kortu! I remember in the year 2003 most roads in Maryland County were very dusty. At the time, when a tractor trailer passes by you, you wouldn't be able to see ahead of you because of the dust. But I thank God now that Maryland County is improving. There was no floater on the Cavalla River in the year 2003.
    I was an elementary school student at the time. I hope to come visit Maryland County in the near future.

    Liberia could learn from the large ferry operation between Senegal & The Gambia.. It is a major business venture between the countries.
    This ferry in the video seems to be a major crossing point between Liberia & The Ivory Coast & this ferry looks very antiquated.
    A modern ferry crossing could be a major source of revenue for the border towns of both countries.
    Keep up the good job. 👍🏿🇺🇸

These colonies leaders or colonizers puppets still don't get it....Imagine how much money is in that area with a nice bridge.
