    "content": "Finally, I have just been wondering how much tax education we conduct in this country. We are talking about things that Kenyans do not understand. When the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury makes a statement in this House, how much public education do we do in terms of implication, especially when he reads a policy statement like the Budget? Budget process means a lot to all Kenyans. It is very important to have a way to make sure that Kenyans understand exactly what these things mean. We talk about zero-rating, exemption and supporting income tax. We need to have a way of reaching out to Kenyans to make sure that they understand. If you give somebody from where I come from a job, he or she will not want to pay Pay As You Earn (PAYE) because they have never been told that you discuss gross salaries. We need to have this education, so that our people can understand."
