    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, once again, for giving me this opportunity to reply. As I do so, I thank the Hon. Members who have contributed. Some Hon. Members said that this will be my legacy. I say that this is your legacy. Giving permission to the FedEx Corporation to set up a base in Nairobi will be your legacy. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you are in the Chair as Parliament approves this. This will make history. Secondly, I assure Kenyans who are in America watching us and following that they now have an opportunity to send their cargo and parcels directly to their families in the country. Parliament has agreed with them. That means business. As I reply, I wish to clarify a few issues on flower farming. Our flowers sell in Europe because we have direct cargo flights to Europe. Now we have the FedEx Corporation coming to Nairobi. That means that the flower farming business, coffee farming and other Kenyan products will boom as we transport them to the USA straight away. We are transacting serious business this afternoon. I also thank the Members of my Committee. We did a lot of public participation to ensure that the laws and procedures in accordance with the Treaty Making and Ratification Act are followed, so that the House can be properly informed. With those few remarks, I beg to reply."
