"content": "I want to tell this Committee that they did something which we were not able to do in the 10th Parliament. Congratulations for a fact-finding mission, so that we can get a solution for our Kenyans who are suffering in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other places. I congratulate the Cabinet Secretary for Labour and Social Protection, Hon. (Amb.) Yatani, for pushing for and even entering into a memorandum of understanding with various countries. The Committee went on a fact-finding mission because there was a problem we wanted to address. If you look keenly at the Report, they have addressed most of the problems Kenyans were crying over. We know for a fact that unemployment is not only in Kenya, it is global. The ILO, in its Report of 2018 on global unemployment, indicated that 192 million people worldwide are without work. That is a big number. When we get opportunity in the form of a formal agreement where we will have a structured way of engagement, then we must appreciate the Committee and congratulate it for going all the way. The Report is a milestone because I had such an experience."
