But now that we have county governments, let us set aside money and convert those people who would otherwise be seen as a burden to society, give them science and technology skills because they are going to be the Bill Gates of this country; they are going to be the people who will move Kenya from a backward, rural economy into a fast growing industrialized economy where people enjoy a high quality of life. With those few remarks, Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me to support this Motion and thank Sen. (Prof.) John Lonyangapuo for bringing it before the Senate. I am not surprised because the professor knows what he is doing; having worked in the Ministry of Industrialization, he knows what skills this country lacks and what it needs. So, Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo, congratulations; we really appreciate the efforts you are making to put this country on the right track. I thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."}
