    "content": "Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I would like to thank Hon. Neto for bringing this Bill. Let me say that prior to my joining the field of politics, I was very much present and vibrant in philanthropy. One of the questions that came into my mind many times was, why is poverty a “hole”? In my opinion, the term “poverty” is where people or organisations will keep on putting money. So, it was very beautiful to see that whenever one kept on giving to the society, things used to get lost. In some cases, some people actually become used to being given and they take it for granted. They take it as their right to be given. So, giving and receiving were being abused. It was very painful for me to recognise that at that point in time. So, I applaud Hon. Neto for bringing this amendment. It is a pity that we have had to wait for too long but they say better late than never. As it stands today, Parliament is correcting the requirements that are needed very desperately in our economy today."
