"content": "Thank you very much. I have just three points to make. First, as much as we want to privatise, we must make sure that all the Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) and Directors of these companies who looted and made them go down on their knees are brought to book and repay the money to these companies or go to jail. They should not be given any other public office. If we leave them, it will be a habit. Everybody will go that way. Even if we privatise these companies they will still loot. Secondly, as much as we want to privatise these companies we must also consider the human resource aspect. Privatisation will take new technologies to those areas. They may buy machines and that will result to some people losing jobs. So, when you are goingto privatise, we must consider the people living in those localities. We must ensure that their capacity has been developed so that when private companies take over, they will get jobs there. Another issue is about owning this land. We must give first priority to the people who come from those localities. This is because they are the ones who live nearby.
