"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this Petition is quite emotional. Sen. Mbura is very passionate about these issues. We cannot run away from labour export because we are not generating enough jobs for every Kenyan in this country. However, we need to regulate this industry because what we have seen from the Middle East are despicable issues. Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale raised issues of employers marrying their secretaries and house girls. However, that is not the issue. The issue here is that she must agree to be married. She should not be coerced or forced. We have been seeing these Arabs confiscating passports of these girls and forcing them to marry them. This is unacceptable. We have seen our girls subjected to a lot of suffering. Sometimes they are burnt to death by their employers. Our people have died in those countries and we have had to receive bodies every day at the airport. It is quite a sad story. We, as a country, need regulations. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes"
