    "content": "farming. I say so knowing that arable, tea and cash crop farming from the region where I come from, has become a bit frustrating. As I speak, the cost of fertiliser has suddenly been deducted from the earnings of tea farmers leaving them with no income during this Easter period. Therefore, I want to encourage my farmers to consider fish farming as an alternative. Now that we are guaranteed of a professional head of the Kenya Fish Marketing Authority, I am sure Kenya will be one of those countries that will be producing and selling fish to the world market. I encourage our Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs to consider having serious trade attaches in our missions. They should be people who understand that fish is now a new export that is likely to be available from Kenya. This is necessary so that where we have missions, the trade officers in those regions assist Hon. Martin in selling Kenyan fish to the countries they have been deputed to represent Kenya. Above all, fish is white meat. Medics and nutritionists advise that as we grow older, we should avoid red meat. The alternative is fish which guarantees local market for fish besides the medicinal value that the coastal parliamentarians have advised us. Since I am going to a Committee meeting in Mombasa, I will try and taste that soup to see whether when I come back, itakuwa sawa . Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support this Motion."
