Malta offers a compelling mix of history, culture, and modern tourism, making it an appealing destination for some Cameroonians. Its strategic Mediterranean location and numerous historical sites attract around one million international visitors annually, suggesting that a portion of Cameroon’s 28 million population may find it an interesting travel option.
Malta is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from Cameroon. It ranks 26th among 40 European countries for safety while walking alone at night. In contrast, Cameroon ranks 135th out of 160 countries on the Global Peace Index, indicating higher levels of violence and crime. In terms of murder rates, Malta has a significantly lower rate at 0.4 per 100,000 people compared to Cameroon's 4.5. Additionally, Malta has a lower incidence of organized crime, with indices indicating better performance in areas such as mafia presence (Malta: 1.5 vs. Cameroon: 4.0) and arms trafficking (Malta: 2.5 vs. Cameroon: 6.5). Overall, tourists from Cameroon can expect a safer environment in Malta compared to their home country, although it's always advisable to remain vigilant and informed about local conditions while traveling.
