    "content": "The insurance industry is extremely important to understand. Personally, I have been in the industry for more than 20 years; in insurance companies and even in brokerage field. Insurance is very important, if it is done in the right manner, it plays a major role in our GDP. We have seen a lot of things that have been done by the insurance companies in this country which are right in a very big way. What we need to do is to ensure that discipline can also be managed. More importantly, not to kill organisations that are already doing something that can also be strengthened in those organisations. For one, we have had the Kenya College of Insurance which is accredited to set examinations in the insurance industry. It is actually renowned in Africa. The examination they set are acknowledged in almost 33 countries. They carry out their tests that are actually set by the College of insurance here in Kenya. So, we should not kill that organisation. What we need to do is to ensure we expand it to work with other organisations as recommended by Washiali, even Technical and Vocational Education Training (TVETs) to ensure that they can have teachers in those colleges and ensure that the College of Insurance continues to set examinations and standards of examinations because that is a function they have been given and is renewed worldwide."
