    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Clearly, the issue about this crop is really controversial. According to my basic research, there could be some evidence that this plant could have some medicinal value. There are many instances that have been cited to suggest that it can help some people. However, even then, it is controversial; it has not been proved beyond reasonable doubt that the medicinal extractions could be beyond reproach. Therefore, we are a young democracy and a young country. Our youth are prone to this drug abuse because of many predisposing factors. In my opinion, let us also be educated about this issue. I would urge the House to argue the merits and demerits of this plant in the Committee so that those of us, like myself who oppose, can also learn what it is that is there because we are here to be informed and to be persuaded, even if it is for the record purpose of the House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I urge that we commit this Petition to the relevant Committee."
