    "content": "The Report is very comprehensive. It talks about the welfare of our migrant workers. What is the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection doing? They should look at the agencies that recruit these people. The agencies that recruit migrant workers should be made public. The country does not know who these agencies are yet they recruit our young people and take them to the Middle East. We have no idea. Just like Hon. Wanyonyi has said, I have also encountered people who have told me: “ Mheshimiwa, I need people from your constituency or county,” yet I had no idea who they were. The Ministry must make public these agencies, so that Kenyans know that we have such agencies. Even the people who work within the agencies that recruit migrant workers must qualify to do that. That is the only way we can ensure that the bad things that happen to Kenyan workers abroad cease. The Ministry of Labour and Social Protection should also conduct pre-departure trainings, which must include counselling. Our people do not understand the culture of the people in those countries."
