• 23 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: It was Second Reading yesterday. But because you have directed the Committee, if it can bring the amendment, the better. That is why I am saying it is quite urgent. view
• 23 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: It is so that we can reduce the destruction of forests. Otherwise, people will destroy forests because they have to get a source of energy.

We must make sure that we do not only have shells of State corporations which do not work, and we only create jobs for our friends to sit in the board yet sometimes they do not achieve ... view
• 23 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Many contributors have talked about donor protection, which I have seen in this Bill. I cannot over-emphasise the importance of donor protection. When you go for blood donation, are you explained the reasons sometimes your blood may not be used? Sometimes it is because it is not compatible with the recipient because of the blood group or the rhesus either negative or positive. But when you are told that your blood is not used because it is not good and reasons are not given, you may think you are suffering from HIV/AIDS. view
