    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me talk about Migingo Island. I know that many colleagues have felt frustrated and that something more should be done. However, in my humble estimation and submission, a diplomatic approach, like the President said, to resolving issues that arise with our neighbours is definitely better than any other alternative. I have no doubt that the question of Migingo is going to be resolved amicably. Days when countries went to war are long gone. There are many avenues of addressing difficult issues with our neighbors. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am very happy that, yesterday, the Ugandan Government brought down their flag on Migingo Island. By Monday, Ministers from Kenya who have been working with me like, Mr. Orengo, Dr. Otuoma, Prof. Saitoti and our Ugandan counterparts, will be launching the re-survey of our boundaries. Not that the survey is going to determine anything new; all maps indicate that our territory is clear where it starts and where it ends. However, it is a requirement by the African Union (AU) and the United Nations (UN) that all countries of Africa must define their boundaries, execute protocols and deposit them with the AU by the year 2010. The UN requires all countries to do the same and deposit them with the UN by 2012 so that in future, there are no arguments about boundaries even where they are clear. This is in progress and I have no doubt that it will be done properly. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
