Even though he defeated a candidate from my party, I congratulate him. I know how frustrating it is to serve for just a short period and then leave Parliament. Looking at the list, it is impressive. I do not know these ladies and gentlemen, but being a Member of Parliament who represents a cosmopolitan constituency, the names give some indication. I hear the Leader of the Majority Party is complaining that Muslims have been left out. That is something that needs to be looked into later.

As I sit down in support of this Motion, I want to speak to the NG-CDF Board and the Committee that we need to sell NG-CDF. If you look at the Auditor-General’s Report, the only fund that had the lowest wastage percentage was NG-CDF at 2.6 per cent. We are looking at a country where it is said that we are wasting 30 per cent of our Budget to corruption, yet there is this fund that some people are scandalising and a positive report has come out of it of 2.6 per cent wastage. You can only compare that to some developed countries because corruption is everywhere in the world. Now no one is even speaking about this positive development in the NG-CDF. There are some people who even want it scrapped yet…"
