    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also support this Motion by my good friend, Hon. Beatrice Elachi ‘Mama Dago’. It is a timely Motion. The world over, economies are grown by SMEs. The Asian tigers and many other economies have grown from SMEs. The government makes a deliberate effort to invest in SMEs, through political goodwill. Hon. Temporary Speaker, the economy of this country is supported by the so-called informal businesses such as jua kali, chama, table banking and many others. Artisans at Gikomba, and at many other markets, are the people who are driving our economy. The Government of former President Mwai Kibaki made a deliberate effort to support SMEs. During his time, the economy grew at a very fast rate. The next Government did not make much effort. The current Government has promised funds to micro businesses to support mamamboga, boda boda riders and many other people in that category. I am very sure that access to cheap credit facilities will propel our economy to start growing very fast. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
