If you travel to the Far East, for instance, Malaysia or Singapore or the other countries in those areas, you will see that housing is a mandatory facility that is given to the population by the government. They plan and look at the demographic factors on population increase trends. They know that next year, the population will have increased to a certain level and so many people will have been married and they will want to have their own houses. You will find houses that have been built waiting for occupants. This is because those governments have known the population trends in their countries and can plan ahead. The other thing that should be considered is having very many Ministries. We have the Ministry of Lands looking into the issues of parcels of land and the Nairobi Metropolitan Development that has come up. There is the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Housing. There should be one Minister whereby he will not have a problem looking for land to put up houses estates or look for plans from another Ministry. This is not necessary. It is an unnecessary waste of resources. I think we are now sober enough for the Principals to consider reducing the Ministries so that we can use those resources positively."
