    "content": "I support this Bill because it is good, but we need, as a country, at the outset, to look back and say we need to develop every part of Kenya. This will ensure that when these opportunities come up we are not held back and say we are not prepared in terms of skills and expertise to undertake those assignments. That is why wisdom demands and I dare say that we are all encouraged to prepare for an opportunity that never comes than to get one and we are not prepared. This is one such opportunity that God has given us. As a country, we should have prepared a lot better than we have done, but nevertheless, it is a learning curve and we are going to do a lot better. We need to prepare our people a lot more in other fields even those we do not have in the country. This will ensure that when an opportunity arises, we will not send people back to school to study because we know the process of acquiring education. It takes a long time for one to get the skills and experience required to run some of these technical fields."
