    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to contribute to this particular statement by saying that it is a very serious matter. It is a matter that concerns the entire country because it is a pandemic. This is an epidemiological terminology that means – to laymen - a disease that has occurred around the world. It is not confined to a particular place. In other words, it is no longer endemic. What is endemic is what is found within the border of that particular area or region but it has become pandemic – it has gone around the world. What worries me is not about stopping the Chinese aircraft but other aircraft as well. It has become pandemic; it has crossed borders and so it is prevalent in the epidemiological terminology. It is prevalent now and we should consider that it is in many other parts of the world. So, it is a condition that we all need to worry about. I thank the President for putting a taskforce in place. Within that taskforce, I would like to see expertise from the infectious and communicable diseases. One other suggestion that I would have put forward is a border protection unit that is specific to pandemics. What I mean is that there should be a particular unit that stays in our borders and the entries to identify and control this disease. I am quite glad that I have contributed to that particularly but this needs to be emphasised."
