    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I thank you for giving me this chance. I wish to support the empowerment of KIRDI. We lost direction when we stopped or reduced funding research in this country. For example, a university research professor is paid pathetically. If you compare a professor with a cabinet assistant secretary (CAS) who is technically a messenger of the cabinet secretary, you wonder who is who. Here we want to do research, and there is an individual being glorified for technically doing nothing. We want to avoid issues where we are importing products that we can have in Kenya. We are importing toothpicks yet we have trees here. We are importing furniture yet we have trees here. It is ridiculous. We should be asking ourselves how we can make better and more durable furniture than China. Actually, ours is more durable by all standards and you wonder why.
