    "content": "county governments as an area where we want to assist. We should put some money in it and this would help us go far. There was a time that almost every telephone operator was a blind person. I do not know whether we still have telephone operators because it is long since I used public telephones. However, those days, telephone operators were blind but could manipulate those old machines and could connect you to whoever you wanted to talk to. These were some of the most pleasant telephone operators and the most efficient. Even when there was a lot of work, they were very kind. That was affirmative action and I do not know why we did not continue with it in other areas. Jobs which can be done by persons with disabilities should be left for these people. People who are able bodied can do other jobs. That way, we would go very far. If you try to jump into a matatu today, you will face many problems if you are disabled. Matatus are for the fittest who are in a hurry. No tout will give you a chance to jump in. We used to have the Kenya Bus which was forced by practice to have some chairs reserved. I have gone abroad and taken bus rides. Whenever you try to sit on those chairs, you are forced out because they are particularly for the disabled. I think this is a good law. I agree with you that after looking at it again, we should go back and come up with amendments. The way it is now, I am quite dissatisfied with the main Act. We should do a good job on the Bill so that we give meaning to the proposed amendments that our brother has brought. I want to thank him. Thank you."
