"content": "Elda, UDA): Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This is a very important Motion. Diplomacy is defined as the art, science, and means by which nations and groups conduct their affairs in a way that projects the image of a particular country. This is done in a way that promotes and protects the interests of that particular country. Having said that, under the Vienna Convention, which is the mother of all diplomatic engagements, there are certain critical issues that a diplomat is expected to undertake. In the Kenyan context, allow me to say this: As a country, we are not doing well. We must call a spade a spade. I am glad that the Leader of the Majority Party and the Leader of the Minority Party are here. Once upon a time, this country was the epicentre of all economic activities in the region and the pride of many Sub-Saharan African States. Our economy is struggling. A few years back, this country was the epicentre of humanitarian activities, but today we are struggling. This country is supposed to be the hub of infrastructure, communication and security. That is the Kenya we wanted. As much as our intention is to give jobs to individuals who qualify, paper qualifications are not enough. You must have the zeal, determination, and the will to represent Kenya as a premier republic. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."

"content": "Hon. Temporary Speaker, you were the Deputy Speaker then, and I was the Chairman of this Committee. I oversaw the growth of our diplomatic missions. You will recall that at that time, we did not have a diaspora department in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Do you remember the report we tabled? Ultimately, it led to the establishment of a diaspora desk at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and all our missions. Today, by the grace of God, the diaspora community is the single largest foreign exchange earner for our country. The diaspora department has a fully-fledged State Department. These are the gains brought about by individuals who were foresighted and ensured that our diplomatic representation not only mirrored political engagement, but also the economic realities and the well-being of the people of Kenya. I agree that these individuals are qualified. The United Nations (UN) Habitat is a technical organisation. The UN Human Settlements Programme is supposed to promote socially and environmentally sustainable towns and cities. It is also supposed to promote transformative change in cities and human settlements through knowledge, policy, and technical advice. You have been given this role. Are you ready for that job? Without demeaning the character of the person appointed to this position, allow me to remind her that this is not the Ministry of Health. You will interact with many technical people representing the face of the universe. Those failed appointments in the Ministry of Health should not be carried over to UN-Habitat. I want to tell her that we are giving her this job because she is qualified, but…"
