"content": "architects, Quality Assurance Systems (QAS), evaluators of programmes and projects that can sit together and execute mega contracts. Mr. Teemporary Speaker, Sir, these monies from China are all commercial loans. If they were concessional loans, we would say that these are loans that are virtually interest free. If the condition is that their contractors must come and do the work, let us concede to this. This is like going to Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) and borrowing money, and employing the Chinese to do the work against the Kenyans. What logic is there? What country are we building? Try and go to China as a Kenyan contractor and see if you will get a job to repair a toilet or anything else for that matter. We must protect our country, people and interests. I urge President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Government to give affirmative action to Kenyans, so that they can generate and create wealth. When people generate and create wealth, the temptations for corruption goes down, and this country will grow and prosper. Thank you for adding my time. I beg to support."
