Samuel Chepkong’a","speaker":null,"content":" Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I have very important information. I support the imposition of that tax. You may not be aware, but the East African Portland Cement Company was a net exporter of clinker. Many transporters of clinker, including myself, went out of business as a result of clinker being imported from outside the country. I was a serious transporter of East African Portland Cement clinker. When they imported clinker, small transporters like me were wiped out."}
