"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am glad the Assistant Minister admits that the number of Kenyans that he has given is an estimate because the information I have is that there are close to 100,000 Kenyans in the UAE. These Kenyans are supporting our economy by their remittances. It is in the public domain that there was a diplomatic row some time last year or the end of 2009 when a Prince was mishandled in Mombasa, Kenya, and since then, Kenyans have been having problems with visas. There was even a requirement at one time that no Kenyans without a university degree could be admitted to travel to the UAE. What has the Ministry done to ensure that this matter is concluded, so that our nationals who are working there are not denied extension of their permits as is happening now? Why has the Ministry not concluded the bilateral agreement?"
