Another thing that I remember from that experience that we had as children is tree planting. There was so much about tree planting. I remember at one point our late President stopped around Sultan Hamud to plant some trees. From that moment to date,

we still call them the Moi trees. The trees produce yellow flowers and are found near Sultan Hamud. To us, it was about tree planting and our President would tell us to plant trees.

doomed if we do not, and we are doomed if we do. Therefore, I looked at it this way; which is the lesser evil, or which is the less doom for us?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the great concern for me, then, was that we could allow them to borrow more, and then we get the money ...
