    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I was just saying that Mauritius makes money and has created much more employment than Kenya, yet it does not have as good beaches as we do in Kenya. We have neglected our beaches. We have allowed them to be insecure and dirty. Those who want to visit them cannot enjoy as much as they used to do. We must safeguard and protect our ocean zone. The coastal zone should be protected. Funds should be allocated to maintain and improve the coastal zone. This must be extended to other areas. I hope the Committee and the Ministry will come up with a similar proposal for areas such as Lake Victoria. It used to be the second largest fresh water lake in the world. Today, it is the most polluted lake in the world. So, we must take care of it and return it to where it used to be. We must look after our other lakes in the Rift Valley like Lake Turkana, Lake Nakuru and Lake Baringo, which is very scenic. We can earn money out of those facilities that God has given us. We will also get employment for our youths, who are a ticking time bomb in this country unless we address their issues. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
