"content": "Hon. Chairlady, I totally oppose this amendment. Kenya is no longer a country where we lack people with capacity to invest in professional bodies. We must make our country business friendly. This control and unnecessary conditions that we give to investors discourages them from coming to this country. We should not put unnecessary conditions, which serve no purpose. There are so many Kenyans who are now administrators of funds; there is no reason to continue nurturing them. I do not know what informed the Committee’s decision in coming up with this particular amendment, which will send out wrong signals. This country should not go the Idd Amin way; at one time the late Amin said Asians should leave Uganda, because he was Africanising the economy. We know the result of what happened in Uganda. This country has matured and we need to move forward. We cannot get stuck in one position and claim that we are nurturing our people. There are so many qualified professional Kenyans nowadays."
