00:00 We have talked about many things, but I want to focus on what we have decided in the meeting today.

00:06 As we have seen, Kiambu has many attraction sites that the locals understand.

00:16 We want to make Kiambu our one day tour or one two day tour county.

00:24 When a person arrives in Nairobi, he has a layover of 10 hours.

00:30 He can come to Kiambu, see 3 or 4 places, leave his money here, and go to the other places.

00:38 For example, we have seen Paradise Lost, Gatamayo Fishing Camp, Nailo Falls, Mugumo Park,

00:48 Kireita Forest, where the locals go to fish.

00:54 So, it is a very big place, but it is important to understand.

00:58 People have not understood that Kiambu is blessed with these tourist sites.

01:02 The locals can come and see.

01:04 We have talked about, we have talked about, there are many birds, bird sanctuaries.

01:10 People know, bird watchers everywhere will look for new areas to look at birds and be able to classify them.

01:16 So, Kiambu is a place where we can put all of this together.

01:20 So, we will collaborate to ensure that there is proper marketing for people to come and see things in Kiambu.

01:26 But when they come, you know that Kiambu is a money county.

01:32 People were blessed with money because they work very hard.

01:36 And they were also blessed with good food and many things.

01:40 Kiambu people are well blessed and they are very intelligent.

01:44 But when they come here, they see that it is a money county.

01:50 It is a place where people have money.

01:52 So, we must improve our facilities, our comfort facilities.

01:56 So, when a person comes here, when he comes to Kiambu, he wants to help himself,

02:00 he wants to have a place like London, like Berlin, like Sydney, like Sao Paulo, like Brazil.

02:10 So, we have to improve those facilities.

02:14 We have to work together to have the necessary resources and facilities to provide people with that comfort level.
