    "content": "because it eases up their export procedures and processes. Farmers can also have a direct market of their products in future as long as the output is of an international standard. Job creation is a very key aspect. However, in my research, I have also noted that we only have two companies in the coastal region that are doing the oil and nuts business. That is the East African Tall Coconut and the East African Dwarf Coconut. Their produce is not enough. After doing my research, is close to 80 to 100 coconuts in a year. So, these two companies cannot produce enough. The more we encourage our farmers and have a body to assist them on all these factors that I have mentioned, definitely the yields will increase, which will consequently increase job creation. Our women and young people are able to get job opportunities. We are in 2024 and access to countries like China is not a challenge. There have been bilateral talks that enhance business for our people. This is in regard to the modern machineries that are in place that can be used for maximum production as far as the product is concerned. Apart from creating the jobs, it will also increase the output, which is very key for any business to sustain. As an entrepreneur, how you put out the end product in the market is very key. Some of the products that my sister has mentioned such as coconut have different ranges. I have come across coconut flour some years back during an expo in this country. There are also different types of oil such as cooking, hair and body oils. Since I was a young girl till to date, coconut oil is believed to be the best for natural hair growth. This product has been there, but it has not been given enough concentration to realize maximum output. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, each day we wear smart, hold our heads up high, but so many modern diseases are amongst us. You wake up the next day and are informed that somebody is no longer with us. The next question that follows is what happened. They did not look unwell. Over time, the internal diseases have manifested in our bodies. Just to mention a few key benefits that coconut has. It helps in strengthening of the immune system which is very important. A good immune system definitely adds you a couple of years. It controls diabetes, prevents pre-mature aging and regulates the blood pressure. Blood pressure is a disease that is becoming a norm in this country. If you have this condition, you also have to be on medication throughout. It is normal and fine. However, these are issues that can be prevented. These are some of the products that can prevent some of these diseases."
