"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I remember the scandal of the last County Government of Vihiga. I do not know if you recall when Gov. Moses Akaranga appointed some con person and sent him to Germany. He paid an office for him in Berlin as a tourism representative, and the person was just drinking from morning to evening instead of marketing the county. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this was an abuse of opportunities and resources. When we tried to inquire, this fellow was not appointed in accordance with any regulation or laws. We visited Germany once and when he heard that there was a delegation from the Senate in town, he vanished to go and drink elsewhere. These are some of the problems that we have in this country. Sen. Faki, Sen. Boy and other coastal Senators are here. They wanted to build a bloc of economy. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you go to Australia, Western Australia as a province, has an office in London that markets Western Australia. If you go to Queensland, they have their offices in America, which market their country. I would want to see the coastal block opening up offices in our tourist sources, for example, in China, India, America and other places. You do not have to wait for the Government because this is a shared function. Tell your governors to think outside the box."
