"content": "Hon. Speaker, first of all, let me take this opportunity to thank you for the minute of silence in honour of the late hon. Chelegat. I am one of those people who did not know her very well, in exception of the few things I was reading in the newspaper. Hon. Speaker, from what I read in the newspaper, I want to say that, it just proved to us that even women in their own capacity can chart or fight for the rights of their people; when they are representing their people in this august House. I want to say that in death, there is something that I have learnt. We have only one responsibility; work for our people and fight for their rights so that they can enjoy democracy that hon. Chelegat fought for. As a woman, reading that she was at one time detained because of fighting for the rights of her people, I think it was a very courageous thing for her. I want to say, on behalf of myself and my constituent, our condolences to the family and to the friends and to the constituency where they come from."
