Madam Temporary Speaker, I know that you are aware of that area because of the many connections that you have there. In the agreement, the owner ... view

• 21 Mar 2019 in Senate: Thank you Madam Temporary Speaker. I want to congratulate Sen. Sakaja. I am happy yesterday he was with the victims.

It is, therefore, understandable when such excitement goes beyond the normal excitement. However, some of these issues should rest as they are until the Joint Committee of Parliament tables its report here. view
