    "content": "us to meet our needs. If there is more in Kenya, that movement allows our people to have these freedoms. Education is the other one. There are many Tanzanians who would like to come and study in Kenyan schools. There are many Kenyans who would like to pursue their university education and even high school education in some of the schools. The other way that we benefit from each other, and which she definitely made very clear to all us, is in tourism. She made it very clear to me that we have been hurting each other by saying Kenyan tour vans cannot go into Tanzania and vice versa, yet there is enough that the tourists can benefit from by just visiting both countries and making it a joint programme. These are some of the things that I was able to glean from that wonderful Address. I know that many colleagues want to speak on to this. I just want to say that we, Members of Parliament, have been given a challenge by the President of Tanzania. We better legislate in such a way as to strengthen the EAC and give our people basic needs. Our people do not have to struggle too much in order to get medicine. We should legislate to free our people into thinking businesswise. We must help our people to think businesswise, joint ventures, going to farm in Tanzania, which she declared has so much land, and also mining. Madam Deputy Speaker, if I were to dwell on the Address for too long, I would probably deprive others of the opportunity to comment. I would like to use this forum to pass congratulations to the President of the United Republic of Tanzania for the Address she made. I have mentioned just a small part of it. She definitely has a bright future and is up to the task. We wish her well. Madam Deputy Speaker, I beg to move and ask the Senator for Kilifi County to second. Thank you."
