    "content": "Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. That is why Sen. (Dr.) Langat should listen to me very carefully about what the young people call a hustle as opposed to a hustler he is referring. These young people have been exploited by we, the politicians, in an attempt to make them look as if they are either doing something wrong or as if we have an alternative. I am simply saying that the companies mentioned in this Bill by Sen. Sakaja, for example, Cellulant has developed a digital payment platform. Sendy has developed a logistics platform. Twiga Foods deals in quality feed for thousands of farmers. Also M- kopa and pay-as-you-go energy services exist. This is what I am talking about, Sen. (Dr.) Langat, and not what you are doing. What you are doing is wrong. This is what I am referring to. I am referring to the people have come up with certain applications that can make our lives a little easy. If the country agreed, we would have a platform for managing our sewer. Had the Government agreed, we would have a platform for managing our traffic and other things. In fact, when I traveled to South Germany where there are a lot of floods, I found only two people managing the water of a whole city. Their work was to monitor in a system. That is why I say if we give an opportunity to young people and not the100,000 jobs that I know Sen. (Dr.) Langat and company will talk about next year, that they will create, tenga and do all sorts of things. That is not what I am referring to. I am referring to offering proper platforms where young people can sit down and use their minds and create applications that can help them. This Bill helps recognize these people."
