"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the hon. Member had listened when I was responding to Mr. Keynan, I said that we have advised and we have a section for the diaspora that registers the details of Kenyans who go out. In fact, all bonafide and legitimate recruitment agents bring records of those they have recruited and sent out to my Ministry but this particular case that we are dealing with is part of that criminal enterprise and criminals will not expose themselves. They do not report to anybody, they do not account to anybody but what they want is a quick buck and take off. So, out there, we have advised our missions in the United States of America (USA) and everywhere and they are doing very well particularly in the USA; Kenyans in their hundreds of thousands are registering with the mission so that we have some database now that they are also eligible to vote in future. They can be reached when they need support or when they need to register as voters. This is going on and is doing very well. The problems of workers are only limited to Kenyans working largely in the Middle East, that is, Qatar, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia. In UAE we have resolved by signing an agreement. In Qatar, the Minister for Labour has signed an agreement. We will now concentrate on working on Saudi Arabia and Kuwait."
