"content": "With regard to the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), the kind of money that this country paid to individuals to compensate them for the land taken would have done another parallel SGR line all the way from Naivasha to Mombasa. Those, to me, are the critical issues. As we discuss, it may be difficult to say land should be taken from an individual. However, as we move forward, we need to some extent discuss the value for land because we have inflated its cost in this country to an extent it is almost becoming impossible to implement programmes which are for public good. If we move in that direction, then reports like this one will make a lot of sense, add value to our deliberations and help Kenyans in general."
