The old chef, or chief, of Dschang passed away 2 months ago, which meant his successor was finally allowed to leave the compound! Here are pictures of the ceremony.
On the right, you can see the giant blow up tub of margarine. It was strange to see a lot of modern marketing like this at such a traditional event.
There were several different traditional dances. The first of which was not really a dance as much as people walking extremely slowly looking about eerily with their masks.
There were also people prancing about with swords.
The new chief is the big guy in white with the hat under the umbrella:
