I want to congratulate all Members who have spoken to this Motion. Today as we talk, we are the representatives of the people back home who are really suffering because this disease is sweeping them away.

We are discussing a very important amendment Bill which is about protecting guarantors. Under normal circumstances, guarantors and borrowers do not do this in bad faith. They do not take it as a bad decision. When you guarantee somebody, it is for the purpose of economic growth at the family level and at other levels. But at some point, there are challenges that force the principal borrower to default on the loan repayment. The reason I support the Bill is because many innocent guarantors who are very good people have been suffering because of this. There should be sensitisation on ...
