    "content": "I want to give certain proposals to President Kihika--- I believe that is a rightful title because within the IPU she is called President. Thank God the title is not governor; otherwise, she would have been in serious problems when she goes back to Kaptembwa. The IPU must embrace technology. Technology is now a disruptor. In 1889, you could do a meeting by all sitting in one hall. Today, I saw the Secretary-General of the UN address a conference via video link. Why can we not develop this Parliament to a level where we do not have to troop 19 people to Qatar to attend a meeting? We can sit here and debate in front of a video camera that connects us to the rest of the 179 member States. However, we should also be aware of the disruptive effect of technology. Those relationships and objectives that you had in 1889 will definitely change. More importantly, how does the IPU resonate with the youth? Do they feel and know it? Must you be a Member of Parliament to know the Inter- Parliamentary Unit (IPU)? You need to get the activities of the IPU outside the Chamber of Parliament and make it relevant to the needs of the people."
