    "content": "If we can spend more time to encourage the middle-class we will be several steps ahead. If you visit our urban centres, you will see a very thriving and confident Kenyan middle-class which is growing by the day. If we can be able to be more creative, we can have packages like health insurance schemes, so that one scores points along the way, including earning points through shopping; so that they can be converted into opportunities for domestic tourism. The idea of always thinking that when we attract a million foreign tourists we will be doing well is not good. The diversity that is in this country is a big opportunity for a thriving domestic tourism market. In my view, if this potential is harnessed, we may go far. I am not saying that we discourage foreign tourists. We need them. I am saying that perhaps there is more to gain if we concentrated more on encouraging and promoting domestic tourism, so that we can grow our economy in that respect."
