Even as we proceed, we should also consider controlling what other international television stations do, like DSTV and CNN. In Dubai, you cannot watch certain materials even if you have your laptop.

As a House, we should unanimously unite to approve and support it because it will ensure that this country leads by example. I am sure that even other countries will come to benchmark on this very law, so that they can also improve the wellbeing of ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to this amendment. I have listened to very many Members who are supporting this amendment, but I am not persuaded that these amendments will provide any value that is of public interest. There are those who are saying that people who will participate in elections and lose must be found so that they can come to this House.

In Kenya as a country, you cannot tell me that it can be short of people who are intelligent enough and will make good contributions. That can only be made possible after general elections, Hon.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also rise to support the Petition to review VAT on fuel. The Petition will answer the many questions people from the western part of this country, the ones who neighbour Uganda, have been asking themselves. Why is fuel in Uganda cheaper than in Kenya and yet Uganda gets its fuel through the Port of Mombasa? Maybe, it will also stop some of us, including my constituents, from going to fuel in Uganda because fuel there is cheaper and cleaner than what we have in this country.
