"content": " Thank you. I take this opportunity to talk about the Bill by my brother from the area. I also come from the gold mine neighbourhood in Kakamega, and several things should be done urgently. I read a paper about two or three weeks ago which said that Africa is still very rich in natural resources, but it is yet to exploit them. We do not even have any structure for the mining of some of the natural resources in Kenya. Way back when I was still in school, the gold mine areas were the best in Africa. The only issue is that there is very poor infrastructure. I have heard that some committees are actually involved. Anybody can just walk to the area, give a tip to the people around and start mining. There is very poor infrastructure. The administration of this country together with the leadership of the area, including my brother who has proposed this Bill, should sit down with the foreigners and discuss how mining should be done. I understand that there are Japanese and Chinese there. If this is sorted, it is not only going to offer our people jobs, but it will also earn us foreign exchange. Gold is one of the most precious metals in the world. We can see what is here is gold. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
