    "content": "The sugar sector is very important to Kenya as a nation. As we are a predominantly an agricultural country, sugar has boosted economies of countries like Brazil, India, China and Mauritius whose per capita income has gone up. The Sugar Bill will go a long way in addressing the plight of cane farmers who are faced with a chaotic sugar industry with no rules and regulations. As a country, proper management of the sugar industry will be a game changer in poverty eradication by creating employment opportunities, increasing our exports to both the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) and beyond and reduce sugar imports."
