• 30 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: created to split the KNUT. There is a Registrar of Trade Unions. He was not appointed to that position to simply register one union but he was appointed to that position to register as many unions as possible. In other countries, we have several unions. There is competition and freedom of choice everywhere. Monopoly should not only be in primary and secondary schools. This is an era of liberalization. To register KUPPET was in order and it was not a Government project. That is what I want to assure the House. view
• 23 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to support the Motion.

• 23 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: There are water projects which are on course and I was requesting that I get something small to provide water in my constituency. I have heard that there is a dam planned for the western part of the country called Tongaren. The people around that place are saying that this is a highly populated area and if a dam is constructed, it will displace some of them.

So, I would like that matter sorted out. view
• 17 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I also have a Statement request which has been approved by you. I do not know whether I can get a response first on the one I have just raised and then request for the next Statement. view
