    "content": "There is talk about the Big Four Agenda. Just like Vision 2030, it raised our hopes especially the policy on expansion of manufacturing sector and achievement of food security. But, when we look at the BPS, it lacks serious strategies that will lead to creation of jobs through the expansion of the manufacturing sector. The Big Four Agenda, I dare say here that is a pipe dream. Let us not cheat ourselves. I have looked at the BPS; the so called Big Four Agenda is a pipe dream. There is no clear strategy to ring-fence resources which will go to the Big Four Agenda, in particular manufacturing and agriculture. The National Treasury must come up with a matrix for implementation and monitoring of the Big Four Agenda and this House must resolve that a matrix outlining key programmes and projects be submitted together with the Annual Estimates coming in April. Without that, we are lying to this country; there is no Big Four Agenda and we better tell the President as much. If he relies on this as his legacy, he is going to fail miserably."
