    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am referring to you as I refer to him. I want to say that as a patriotic Kenyan, I am a bit disappointed because our staff out there in the mission has not been trained. Look at say, 10 years ago. We had a lot of tourism in this country which was a major foreign exchange earner, but what happened? Today, we cannot get a quarter of what we used to get because our missions are not good. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, if you ever worked for Kodak, a multinational corporation then, and you told people that you were from Kenya, they would get excited and would want to hear more about Kenya. People were so interested in this country. Today, I can tell you we have done nothing and it is because we have poor representation and poor embassies. Before somebody is appointed to go to a certain nation, they must have an orientation of almost three weeks so that they understand their vision. So, I thank the Committee for having come up with this decision. In the Third Reading, we will enrich this Bill so that people understand. We must market our country. We are all asking when the rain started beating us."
