    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to contribute to a Statement on SFR that has been raised by Sen. Cherarkey. Sen. Cherarkey would benefit from this if he cared to listen. The matter of SFR is a basic, but very important matter for this country and for any nation. Lack of food to a big population of any country is in itself a threat to national security. I have taken note of the contents of the Statement, especially in reference to the closure of the reserve few years ago. A country cannot operate without a food reserve because that is almost inviting anarchy into a country. On the last point of his Statement, I want to ask the Committee to which the Statement would be referred to, to push forward the agenda of empowering local farmers to produce enough for local consumption, have a surplus for the reserve and even more for export. Mr. Speaker, Sir, once that Statement reaches the Committee where I sit, we shall do justice to it. I can see my able Chair smilling because he knows that we will do justice to it. I thank you."
