"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Bill whose objective is to give effect to the Constitution in order to promote all forms of national and cultural expressions through literature, arts, traditions, celebrations, science, communication, information, mass media, publications, libraries and cultural heritage. Just like my colleagues have ably argued on this Bill, I will give an example of this global pandemic. Many of us who had nothing much to do indulged in reading. Among the many books that I came across was: “Why nations fail”. If you look at the expressions in some of those written materials, specifically from that book, you will find the exact reason why Kenya is where it is. The example that was given was that of the South American countries. Those countries are so close to each other and are separated by only a fence. They are so close in terms of cultural environment and even language.

A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
