    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I just wanted to clarify something about funding. It may look small, but this is the initial seed money. The Ministry is also generating a bit of Appropriations-in-Aid (A-in-A). But within the new Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) process which was beginning today, the tourism sector is being slotted in for a lion's share of funding because of the importance it plays. Now that I am at it, I believe that the benefits that we are seeing now, and the increase in the number of tourists is partly because of the confidence that the people have within the country, the security and issues surrounding the country. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, as leaders, we have a big role that we can play in boosting that confidence and having many more people coming to this country because Kenya is really the destination of choice across the globe. So long as we keep our politics within certain levels of responsibility, we will continue attracting more tourists to this country."
