    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to take this chance to thank the Members, starting with the Seconder, Hon. Dr. Ochanda who is a Member of the Committee. I also want to thank Members who belong to the Committee and other Members who are not in this Committee for their great contributions. We have also learnt big time and I am sure we are more sharpened as the membership of this Committee on how to move forward. What we need to note is a point you brought forward. Even as you talk about challenges of integration, the 21st Century challenges are not the challenges we are encountering as EAC. The EAC is talking about labour, competitiveness, and there is a very important point you brought about, which is the challenge of technology. It is about analytics. It is about the data that is mined by the IT companies, how are they used for the advantage of the home countries. The challenges of the 21st Century integration are bigger than a Kenyan moving to Tanzania. It is about artificial intelligence as you mentioned; it is about robotics. When you talk about jobs, you talk about jobs to be done by people. The 21st Century jobs are those that are designed to be done by robots, that is, robotics. They are geared and infused and run by artificial intelligence. The irony of it is that technology knows no boarders. I am moving forward and we are going to be well guided so that even as a country, we can continue to make policies that make sense when it comes to technology."
