    "content": "Thank you for the time you have given me to contribute towards this amendment. The amendment is necessary and it is important particularly when we recognize that these people or the farmers along the coast region wait for a long time before coconut or palm trees mature. We have realized that this Fund will also go into alleviating the economic situation of the people living along the coast. This will also give them hope as they wait for the trees to mature. That is very important. We will be considering other areas that require subsidized agriculture, fertilizers and other interventions to increase the crop. In the meantime, these farmers will enjoy the benefits and interventions. The Fund will go a long way to motivate these people to stay longer as they wait for the trees to grow and have them harvested for sale through export or local markets so as to generate income. Most of these people have issues in paying school fees and their income per capita is very low. Before the trees mature after 15 or 20 years, they suffer many economic appraisals. This Fund is of critical significance. It will give these people a source of livelihood. With that, I support the amendment."
