    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, very briefly, I want to support this Bill. Let me also add my voice in applauding the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance and the Treasury for making every effort humanely possible to steer the economy of this country in the right direction in a very difficult global context. The economy of this country, especially in the last two or three years, has had to weather many storms. Of course, we are not an island and we have, certainly, been affected by the global economic meltdown, and yet we remain an economic force in this region. I just came back from Bujumbura yesterday, where the nations of East Africa had been gathered for the annual summit and you get a sense that despite our challenges; despite the challenges bedeviling this country, Kenya remains the economic hub in this region and that if anything goes wrong with the economy of this country, it has a ripple or domino effect that spreads all across the region, to which we pretty much serve as the hub of the fulcrum."
