I am dismayed that some Members are almost in tears for being banned from going to America. Do we not realize that the good Lord gave us such a beautiful country that you need not cry, when you are banned from going to another country? We also need to know that a country is like your house, if your friends ban you from going to their houses stay still and do not weep. Develop your country to a point, where other people will envy coming to the country. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think it is a moment we are showing our weakness. Let us concentrate on developing our country. We have declared other people persona nongrata ."}
