    "content": "of a Member of Parliament? There is simply no way for you to get that vehicle to your village. We stand with the people of the islands. It is the most beautiful place as my senior, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, has alluded to. Those of us who come from that side of the country sometimes feel that there are Government services that are not applicable or available for us. We have not felt the weight of the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife in Western Kenya. There are beautiful places there that are never marketed by this Kenya Tourism Board (KTB) that I hear about. Mt. Elgon has caves and elephants, but we do not see the same level of marketing that we see in other places that have tourism activities. Madam Temporary Speaker, if this Petition is allowed to succeed, I personally have seen the difference that it will make. If you are left at the hands of private ferry operators, then you know they are exposed to the ravages of the economy. These people are free to set the prices of these goods, yet they are an essential good that is a lifeline to the people of these islands. I assure my friend, the Senator for Homa Bay County, that he has a friend in the Senator for Nairobi City County and its entire delegation. I want Sen. Tabitha Mutinda not to leave this House without having seen the sunset on Lake Victoria from Governor’s Camp on Mfangano Island."
