    "content": "number of Kenyans who are pastoralists in terms of understanding those who are exporting? Do we have any partnership with the countries that buy this product? If we do, it is time we had sort of a capacity building to ensure that the small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can copy whatever the countries that are exporting this product do and do it in our country. The other thing is that when you talk of Bata today, I think most of the Bata shoes that we wear come from China. When you tell SMEs that 34 million pairs of shoes are manufactured in our country and then 28 million is a waste and yet we have flooded the same country with all these shoes, where will they sell their products? What incentive have we given them to ensure that the cost goes down so that Kenyans can also afford to support their own? Lastly, we cannot talk about waste management while we know that the same countries that are buying this product have technological ways of dealing with their waste. Can we import the same technology to ensure that we deal with our waste management? These are key issues that they need to tell us. Why do we have an authority that has been underfunded by our Government, if we know that this sector is taking care of small entrepreneurs?"
