    "content": "Government. This is something that is expected from our missions abroad. Is that what they are doing? If we are able to know who we are through the missions that we have across the world, how are we projecting this? What is it that we are seeking from the rest of the world as Kenya? What sort of partnerships are we looking for with our diplomatic colleagues in other countries? We have the main research centres here like Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI), Kenya Forestry Research Institute (KEFRI), Kenya Agricultural Research Institute (KARI), the Kenya Seed, and so on. What sort of relationship have we developed with those other countries, in terms of research, university exchange programmes, and other programmes? Is this not what we should be looking at? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the major resource that we have is human resource or our ability to engage ourselves in commercial entrepreneurship – are these not the sort of countries we should be looking at? Should we not have moved away from the colonial foreign policy we had, simply because the UK and Europe were the colonisers? Where are our new markets? Are they not in the Far East and the East? This is what we have been saying. How is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs applying our policy, assuming that we now have a policy?"
