    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to support the Vote of the Ministry of Tourism. I wish to recognise the efforts being made by the Ministry, despite the difficult times we are in, in terms of our image and global constraints. Like any other Member of Parliament, I would like to say that, yes; Kenya is a very beautiful country, from the Coast to the Lake, and from the beaches to the wild animals. As Kenyans, we are fortunate. Every Kenyan should actually be proud to belong to such a beautiful country and promote it. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I particularly want to appeal to the House. We all make several travels across the world. Perhaps, it is time we now worked together with Kenyans in the diaspora. If we only targeted one million Kenyans in the diaspora, there are more Kenyans out there than one million. Let us use them by turning them into our billboards. I know that there is an advertisement that has been showing in London. If we only use Kenyans in the diaspora as our walking and talking billboards, and each of the one million of them just sends two friends to Kenya every year, we will actually have two million tourists coming to Kenya at no extra cost to us in terms of advertisement. We will have two million tourists coming to Kenya, courtesy of Kenyans"
