Abstract

This study aims to investigate and compare the competition laws of Cameroon and China, with a focus on the limitations and constraints of competition law implementation in Cameroon and China. By comparing the Competition Laws of China and Cameroon, the research intends to determine whether there are any limits in the implementation of Competition Law in Cameroon and China. To examine and get results for the research’s many goals and objectives, this study uses qualitative data analysis. Competition legislation has had a considerable impact on China's economy in recent years, and it will eventually have an impact on trade policies that are directly tied to the international market. During our research, we discovered that competition law regulations have an impact on national and international trade in each country. And we realized that Cameroon's competitiveness policies are in some ways behind the times in the twenty-first century.
 
 As a result, there is a growing need to look into the divergence between China's competition law and Cameroon's competition law in order to assist Cameroonian competition law authorities in updating and making structural changes to Cameroon's competition legislation. These revisions will improve Cameroon's national and international trade policies, but they will have a substantial influence on the country's current economy. There may be some takeaways for China's competitive law policymakers as well. There is no academic work of this kind after a vast range of research, and this will be a wonderful opportunity to introduce creative work to this academic sector. The Anti-Monopoly Law of China has greatly evolved in the past years and there has been amendments and structural adjustments in the past years, which is very great, because Competition Law plays a great role in the economic progress of each country. As a result, the purpose of this study is to identify any obstacles to the implementation of Cameroon's Competition Law (Law No.98/013 of 14 July 1998) and China's Anti-Monopoly Law (2008).

Highlights

  • China's economy is one of the world's fastest-growing economies, allowing them to engage in business connections with countries all over the world and Cameroon is one of these countries

  • There's the issue of China's technological and entrepreneurial advantages over Cameroon, which puts native enterprises' survival in both commercial and production activities in jeopardy. This reflects an unequal link between the economies of Cameroon and China, which can be remedied by enacting a strong competition law

  • In Cameroon, it is known as antitrust law, while in China, it is known as anti-monopoly law

Summary

Introduction

China's economy is one of the world's fastest-growing economies, allowing them to engage in business connections with countries all over the world and Cameroon is one of these countries. The partnership between China and Cameroon benefits both countries, it poses certain obstacles for Cameroon, which has a weak economy. The massive influx of low-cost manufactured items from China poses a major challenge to Cameroon's weak export manufacturers as well as SME's that only produce for the local market (Schiere & Walkenhorst, 2010). There's the issue of China's technological and entrepreneurial advantages over Cameroon, which puts native enterprises' survival in both commercial and production activities in jeopardy. This reflects an unequal link between the economies of Cameroon and China, which can be remedied by enacting a strong competition law
