Cameroon presents a compelling destination for some Lebanese visitors, thanks to its rich cultural heritage and diverse natural attractions. As a key part of its economic development, the tourism sector plays a significant role in the country's exports, making it an appealing option for a segment of Lebanon's population of 6 million.
Cameroon has a safety ranking of 135th out of 160 countries according to the Global Peace Index, which is comparable to Lebanon's ranking of 132nd. In terms of murder rates, Cameroon has a rate of 4.5 per 100,000 people, while Lebanon's rate is significantly lower at 1.9. Regarding organized crime, Lebanon generally has higher indices, indicating more severe issues in areas such as state crime and human trafficking. For example, Lebanon scores 9.5 for state crime compared to Cameroon's 8.0. Overall, while both countries face safety challenges, the crime statistics suggest that tourists from Lebanon should exercise caution when visiting Cameroon, particularly regarding violent crime and organized crime activities.
