"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, on matters of fact, I was with the Senate Majority Leader, Sen. Cheruiyot, at Moi University, at the Student Centre. We went to address a Kamukunji not too long ago. The students told us the kind of problems they are facing. Is Sen. Cheruiyot in order? In the morning session, while he was away lambasting Members who were not here, Sen. Cherarkey and Sen. Onyonka put the Cabinet Secretary for Labour and Social Protection to task because he had brought us a schedule showing the jobs we have exported. It is a fact that, that report was tabled here; that the President has been gallivanting going all over the world and the bulk of the jobs he has secured are housemaids. It is described there. It is a fact that was tabled here. It is also a fact that India produces and manufactures technical and Information Technology (IT) and computer science experts. That is why Silicon Valley is dominated by Indians. Yes, we had a good education at Moi University, and that is why I am here. However, if we are exporting labour and that it is one of our products, if diaspora remittances are bigger than the returns from coffee and tea, that means the production of labour is our biggest industry. However, if we are producing house girls, we should be ashamed of it. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
