    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this debate. From the outset, I would like to support this Report and commend our Members of Parliament who represented this country very ably in this Assembly. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have heard my senior colleague lamenting about things which have gone wrong in this country. That should be a warning to those who are in Government that they may end up lamenting next time they are no longer in Government, if they do not do the right things. They should learn from his statements. Mr. ole Ntimama was a Member of the Cabinet for a long time, when our forests and industries were being destroyed, but he could not see it. So, this should be a warning to these Ministers to open up their eyes and minds, so that they do not allow destruction to be done on the scale it was done when Mr. ole Ntimama was a Minister of the Government of Kenya. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Report is very comprehensive. It addresses issues which are very important to this country. Let us take, as an example, the issue of tourism. Today, tourism is the biggest foreign exchange earner for this country, but what portion of our Budget do we devote to tourism? Has this Parliament ever asked itself how much money is devoted to develop tourism wholly - tourism that benefits the communities that provide attractive areas for tourists? How much money is devoted to Narok? How many roads have been done? How much money has been devoted to roads in Narok and Trans Mara Districts? How much money has been devoted to Amboseli and Tsavo National Parks? How much money has been devoted to Manga Ridge in Kisii?"
