Zimbabwe Legalises ICT Censorship?
by Alex Gakuru 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

... Meanwhile, the lower house of Zimbabwes parliament passed a bill yesterday allowing the government to monitor phones, mail and the Internet to protect national security. While conceding the country needed to protect itself against terrorism, opposition members said they feared the bill would pave the way for President Mugabes government to curtail freedom of speech and breach privacy.

Re: [kictanet] FW: [www.eThinkTankTz.org] Tanzania Govt Budget Speech

Hi, Actually, the Kenyan minister's speech was on the treasury website www.treasury.go.ke within an hour of his delivering it. I think the problem is that the Kenya National Assembly's web site is poorly served. We have lots to learn from Tanzania's and Uganda's parliaments. Kenya's national assembly does not even have an up to date order paper on the web site, whereas you will get loads of information on Tanzania's bunge website, up to date info, bills going backing 10 years and more.

Sh1bn allocated to fibre optic cable project Story by JUSTUS ONDARI Publication Date: 6/15/2007 The Government yesterday showed its resolve to go ahead with its fibre optic project ahead of the regional initiative by factoring in Sh1 billion for The East Africa Marine System (TEAMS) project. The project could get Kenyans hooked onto the international fibre system mid next year. TEAMS is different from the first initiative, the Eastern Africa Submarine Cable Systems (EASSy) project that has been held up because of negotiations over its ownership and funding. >>>snip story continues @ http://www.nationmedia.com/dailynation/nmgcontententry.asp?category_id=1&ne… ____________________________________________________________________________________ Fussy?

Koch Fm needs a generator It is not every day that Kenyan journalists commit their money to the community but Nganga Mbugua had a noble idea- to contribute towards Koch Fms acquisition of a generator. Mbugua, a journalist with the Nation wanted had learnt that Koch Fm was fundraising to buy a generator and wanted to contribute to the cause. So he sent sms to all his friends. He asked for whatever they had, shs 100, 500, 1,000 or 10,000. Now, Koch Fm has a generator but has no money to install it. They got estimate costs of about shs 120,000. KICTANet members have been invited to pledge their contribution towards this worthy cause. Whether monetary or in kind, all are welcome to contribute. We are drawing a list of those interested in contributing. Andrew Limo was the first to pledge. Please add your name to this list. Ideally, Kenya ICT Action Network would like to help, and make sure the ACTION part is more prominent. It is such acts that will bridge the digital divide Do I hear the names???

Radio Simba to train Koch Fm presenters

Simba Fm to train presenters at Koch Fm When Carol Wanjiru agreed to make a presentation at KICTANets monthly forum, she did not expect the response to be that overwhelming. I knew good things would come, but this is more than good. Thank you KICTANet! she said. Apart from having an operational website, Radio Simba invited Koch Fm presenters for a hands-on training at their offices in Lavington. Nicola Munene, from Radio Simba, confirmed that the station would be delighted to expose the volunteers at Koch Fm to the rigors of a commercial radio station and how they make presentation beneficial to the community. We will arrange when they can come over to our offices. I think it will be mutually beneficial, said Munene. Koch Fm is operated by youth at Korogocho slums on voluntary basis.

Kenic, Communicart, send smiles back to Korogocho slums
by Rebecca Wanjiku 15 Jun '07

KICTANet members make a difference at Koch FM When Carol Wanjiru and Hellen Wanjiku gave their presentation about Koch Fm, the challenges and successes, the crowd was delighted. It was a capacity crowd of Kictanet members who turned up probably to listen to the opportunities and challenges to development and maintenance of local content in local radio stations and websites. For a station that started as a pirate radio at the Korogocho slums in Nairobi, Koch Fm officially launches tomorrow (Saturday June 16th) The station broadcasts at 99.9 at a radius of 2km, incidentally, the same frequency is licensed to Ghetto Fm at Majengo slums. If they exceed the radius, then they interfere with each others frequencies. In this respect, Koch Fm would like to stream online so that even those living beyond Korogocho can listen to them. But they have no website. That was made history yesterday by KENIC and Communicart. KENIC will organise for them to get a domain while Communicart will develop their website and ensure its interactive. Because Koch Fm wants to encourage qualified youth to abandon crime and seek employment or entrepreneurship, the website will allow organizations and individuals to post employment and training opportunities which will be broadcast at the station.
