    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the remuneration package for our Members is not adequate. We brag that we are an economic giant. I would not use the word “sleeping economic giant”. Within the East African context we are an economic giant. How come our EALA Members are not treated the way other Members from the East African Region States are treated? What are we telling the other regional members? If anything, we are supposed to lead by example. This is because we have something to gain economically, educationally, culturally and in every aspect. This country is home to a number of international organizations. We have the United Nations and HABITAT here. This country must lead by example. The leadership of the Ministry of East African Community must lead by example. I want to ask: How many of our Parliamentarians here are familiar with the tenets of the East African Accord? I am glad that we have a very able lawyer, who is at the helm of the Ministry. You need to cultivate the goodwill of the legislative arm of the Republic of Kenya, so that they can also be their own ambassador."
