    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this very important Report that will enhance business opportunities within the African Continent. Hon. Pkosing, who is the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing, has been the most active Chairperson in this House. He never misses the proceedings of this House. Most of the Questions that are directed to his Committee are broadly answered. Other than being the international petitioner, who petitioned ICC, Hon. Pkosing has a lot in his legacy. This will only add to the many caps he has because under him and his Committee’s watch, we have seen improvement in terms of infrastructure, particularly an increase in tarmac roads, the SGR metre gauge railway, and the Nairobi Expressway that will ease transportation to and from the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. There has also been refurbishment of the Lamu Port and the Manda Airport in Lamu, which will be an international airport; Kisumu Port and many others, including Homa Bay Airport. When we open our airspace, we create job opportunities. Apart from the South African Airline, other airlines registered in the republics of South Africa and Botswana will land in Kenya. I am quite sure there will be need for ground engineers and crews. There will also be need for air hostesses, and they may prefer Kenyans because they use different languages in their aeroplanes including Kiswahili now that they will land in our country. They will hire our Kenyan youth. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
