    "content": "technical institute in my constituency. I am sure my constituents will be celebrating once the Kimasian Technical Institute is built and all the others which will come along within the financial year. On ICT, communication is very important. We want to encourage the President to speed up the laptop project. Under the laboratory projects, which are going to be built in every primary school, I recommend that we implement this through the CDF structure, so that it can be done in one kick and in one financial year, we can have all the laboratories built in all the constituencies in this country. I also want to thank the Budget and Appropriations Committee and the Government for ensuring that the promotion of teachers and employment of more teachers to improve the quality of education has been factored into the Budget. On the infrastructure, it is very good that the country for the first time will have tarmac roads in rural areas. In fact, in my constituency, for the first time, there will be a tarmac road cutting across Chepsion, Kimasian, Londiani, Soget and Tendeno. Many people, instead of travelling far to see a tarmac road, will see tarmac road in their own villages. As I end, tourism is very important. The allocation of Kshs1 billion to the Narok- Sekenani Road is very welcome. These are roads which bring a lot of money to this country. I want to encourage the Government to look for new sites. As terrorism is across the whole world, we want to encourage our people to practise local tourism. It is important that we allocate more money to new sites and cultural centres. For example, in my constituency we have a cultural centre. I want to end by saying that the youths have not been left behind. Agriculture and health care have also not been left behind. Youths are very important part of our society. I thank the Committee and I fully support this Budget."
