Khaniri for bringing this Statement forth for us to understand this imbalance in trade that is there between Kenya and Beijing, to whom we are bleeding a lot of our hard earned money towards yet we are not getting the same from of them.

Therefore, I want to thank Sen. Khaniri for that Statement. I could have said a lot more, but I thank you. view
