    "content": "Some advanced companies in America use drones, that we nowadays see being used to take aerial photos, for delivery of food and other light deliveries. A drone is programmed from an office. It comes all the way to your home to deliver a parcel and then it goes back. It does not have to go through a traffic jam or poor weather. It just goes and comes back after delivering. That is an innovation of a youth. You can see how it is critical. If we really supported them, we would have those technologies available right here in Kenya. Let us not go the China way. It is possible to pick what China can do and improve on it without having to go a certain route to buy it from China. I am not ashamed to say this. We went to China the other day. We discovered that there is a market called “the copy market” which is legal and within the law. A market has been set where you only find copies. Copies means they pick what has been done and then they copy and make an imitation and you buy it at a reduced price. They also have a university called “the University of Copying”. It is very interesting. “The University of Copying” means you pick a Mercedes and you make a car that resembles a Mercedes, but is not necessarily a Mercedes and you perfect it. You fake it until it happens. Through that, they have made a lot of money. So, if China can make money out of copying, why can Kenyans not make money out of innovation? With those few remarks, let us support the innovations by the youth. Let us grow the future of this nation through this Motion. I support the Motion."
