    "content": "We are in a liberalised economy. If the SGR is competitive enough, it should attract more customers, Chinese loans and the Handshake notwithstanding. We should not kill the economy of Kenya that has grown from Independence. We cannot throw away the child with the bath water. There are people who have been depending on the transport system. There are people with loans that they used to buy lorries because they knew the transport system between Mombasa and other parts of this country is a booming business. Many people are employed by the transport system. We cannot kill this transport system and deny Kenyans an opportunity of employment simply because we want to pay loans that we borrowed without considering where we would get money to repay them. This House must rise up and say no to forceful transportation and any type of forceful business because we are in a liberalised country. We cannot be coerced by anybody to use any means of transport that some of the players have interest in. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
