"content": " Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(c), I rise to request a Statement from the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Tourism and Wildlife on the decline of performance of tourism sector in the country. Tourism is a critical sector that contributes significantly to Kenya's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), employment, and foreign exchange earnings. Kenya is renowned globally for its diverse wildlife, cultural heritage and breathtaking landscapes, positioning it as a prime destination for international tourists. Our tourism sector has been experiencing a serious performance decline in recent years, with a marked reduction in international tourist arrivals. Our neighbouring countries— including Tanzania, Uganda, and Rwanda—have surpassed Kenya in attracting tourists due to more competitive prices, including significantly low park fees and enhanced infrastructure development. High park fees in Kenya have been identified as a key deterrent to potential tourists, particularly compared to similar regional destinations. The trade undermines Kenya's ability to compete as a leading tourist destination, thereby affecting revenue, livelihoods and conservation of our equal diversity. It is against this background that I seek a Statement from the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Tourism and Wildlife on the following: 1. Competitive tourist policy pricing models and marketing approaches of neighbouring countries and other global leads in tourism. 2. The impact of the decline in tourism on the economy’s Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) operating in the sector, local communities and conservation efforts. 3. Sustainability measures to reverse the decline and position Kenya competitively as a prime tourist destination. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."

Kirigo Secondary School is one of the 47 secondary schools in Mbeere North Constituency. It is a day secondary school that operates in a very harsh environment, a semi-arid area. When you look at its performance, I am proud of its academic improvement as a Member of Parliament. However, they still have a huge task to do moving forward. We expect them to register a considerable improvement in their academic performance this year. We look forward to producing Members of Parliament in future from the students who are here. As your parents, we and the Government of the Republic of Kenya are investing in you. Please do not let the investment go to waste. We thank and pray for you. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
