    "content": "I support this Bill. It proposes some remedies to these problems, the first remedy being the antidumping levy. If countries out the reproduce low quality items and they want to export them to us, and we know for sure that these items are not of the value that they are being sold at in our country, then, it is important for us to implement the antidumping levy. We put a levy on those goods so that by the time they are being sold in the local market, their prices are higher than the prices of similar locally produced goods. That way, Kenyans will not be excited to buy these imported goods because certainly their prices will not be as competitive as they are supposed to be when they are dumped here. The other one is the anti-subsidy levy. If we investigate and find that these countries are highly subsidising production of items or commodities within their countries, and they do that for purposes of export and exploitation of our citizens, then we also need to consider the possibility of having an anti-subsidy levy so that we can also levy some serious duty on them and make the products less competitive than they seem to be."
