    "content": "The Parliament of Kenya has, through the Parliamentary Service Commission, incorporated sports as one of the activities aimed at enhancing wellness among Members and staff, while also entrenching institutional teamwork, unity and collaboration. Sports play vital roles in fostering unity, discipline and healthy competition, not only within our region but also among Members of Parliament and staff in the East African Community (EAC). To this end, our Parliament embraced sporting activities as one of the avenues for promoting parliamentary diplomacy and deepening co-operation among the EAC partner States. Further, in line with promotion of parliamentary diplomacy and regional integration through sports, I am honoured to report to this House that the Bunge Golf Team participated in a friendly Golf Tournament in Entebbe, Uganda from 21st to 27th May 2023 under the auspices of Parliament of Uganda Golf Team. The team gallantly staged a strong challenge and emerged runners-up in the prestigious tournament and produced the best female and male golfers. Indeed, our sportsmen and sportswomen demonstrated a true spirit of resilience and determination that serves as an inspiration to others to emulate in pursuing excellence. As the Bunge Golf Team captain, I am proud of our golfers for their commitment to the game and dedication that brought glory to our institution. The outstanding achievement by the team would not have been possible without your unwavering support, as a passionate sports enthusiast, to its endeavours. With your indulgence, I invite Members to join me in commending the Bunge Golf Team for its exemplary performance. I thank you, Hon. Speaker."
