    "content": "Along the line were my concerns for what seems to be inadequate coordination, there is no sufficient coordination with the Ministry of Energy. They are still talking about looking for ways and means in which electrification could be done and implicitly that their demand for energy may not be what the Ministry of Energy can supply. I know that energy development is one of the highest priorities that the Government has given and we hope that even though they may be developing the SGR without use of grid energy, they will consider this seriously. That is the route many countries are headed; the intended rapid transport of goods across the country is considered. I would also hope that in these days in which transport costs are very high not just for motorists but even for passengers, we might all remember that in the early days, travelling by railway was a lot cheaper than travelling by road. It, indeed, brought together many communities from across the country. That is how we began our first integration process that brought us all the way to Independence even though it is beginning to become a challenge now. Now, our passenger transportation would be an important way for this kind of railway development, given the amount of money that we are spending."
