Bwana PS, Taking que from your latest post, allow me to express myself in 4 quick/short bullets regarding my personal concern on Media Regulation. 1. I run a company <www.mediacorp.co.ke> whose business is modelled in doing research on capital markets including the NSE and selling our findings to subscribed clients. The proposed regulation that researchers and analysts including their families not to trade in shares is of great concern. 2. Regulating local companies will give international competition undue advantage. e.g. Will the same rule apply to researchers and analysts employed by Reuters, Bloomberg, CNBC who run similar services and are busy setting up shops in Kenya?? 3. If our main mode of dispatch is via internet, will regulation still be enforced because our website is locally registered?? If we change to a <.com>, and register the company outside the country, will we enjoy immunity enjoyed by foreign competition?? 4. Is media sent via internet also within the regulation ambit?? Will this apply only to <.co.ke> or will Kenyans prefer to use <.com> to 'avoid' regulation. Sir, before the proposed regulation, our concern was getting accurate research to many Kenyans who have invested in stocks especially those in the diaspora who do not have access to newspapers and local news. Many were requesting more infomation on how the law protects their investments if say.. a brokerage closes down...but it seems our efforts will be nipped right in the bud by the proposed regulation. Sir, Please guide me if my fears are unfounded...Source of my concern is from the story posted on Business Daily here <http://bdafrica.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1070&Itemid=3880> -- With Kind Regards, Bildad Kagai MD - MediaCorp Limited Suite B2, Tetu Apartments StateHouse Avenue P.
