The purpose of the sharing of this information is to recruit more investors. So several data are missing (companies under 100 millions as turnover per year). The entire sector of Mining is missing also so we don't know who is extracting gold or diamond in the country.

Comment: “Data on environment are not available from the Ministry of environment. Few years ago The Cameroon’s National Institute of Statistics did a study on the pollution of surface and ground water in Yaoundé and its impact on population health.. http://www.statistics-cameroon.org/fr5/downloads/EPESS_Note_synthese_version_12_juillet_2013.pdf (this study is not available).”
