    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is tied to the issue of value addition. That is the only way in which we can ensure that our tea remains special. Otherwise, under the current arrangement, even at the Mombasa Tea Auction, tea is blended with tea from the region and other parts of the world. When they go to Dubai, they do the same. But we have certain market niches like that of Southern Sudan, Sudan and some parts of Pakistan, where our tea gets to the market as Kenyan tea. Whenever we sell a 50-kilogramme bag, our tea is blended with other teas. Therefore, the only thing that we can do is to ensure that we do add value here and configure the market, so as to be able to transact business with the buyer directly."
