"content": "Hon. Speaker, in short, by expanding agricultural output, subsidising fertiliser, investing in infrastructure to reduce cost of doing business, reducing the out of pocket expenses for education and health care and by significantly expanding the social safety nets for the poor and deserving Kenyans, we have responded to those Kenyans who pleaded that we address the high cost of living and protect the vulnerable. Hon. Speaker, our fifth thematic area is on employment of our youth and women. Kenya is endowed with agricultural and natural resources, a prerequisite for industrialisation. Facilitating growth of the manufacturing sector will move our agriculture and natural resources up the value chain and diversify our exports. In particular, our programme on agriculture lays the foundation for industrial take-off as we facilitate the private sector to actively participate in agro-processing and manufacturing inputs such as equipment, machinery and parts."
