    "content": "Thank you very much! China, which has 1.3 billion people, is a superpower in economics! So, a big population is actually a reason for people to prosper! Today, the life expectancy of Kenyans has risen up to 54 years. That rise has been attributed to the fight against HIV/AIDS in the last 25 years. It had gone down to 46 years. But because of what we have done on the fight against HIV/AIDS, it is now 54 years. If we were to put a similar effort against malaria, we will raise the life expectancy from 54 years to 65 years. Many of those Kenyans who are going to be dying at 54 years would actually be still productive at the age of 65 and contributing to the building of this nation. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to remind hon. Members that, if this Motion passes, we will have a direct role as Members of Parliament. Our role would be to ask the Ministry of State for Planning, National Development and Vision 2030 to create a Constituency Malaria Control Council, which could be managed under the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF)."
