by William Njoroge 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

I accidentally bought 9,900 worth of Safaricom airtime (instead of withdrawing cash). If anyone is willing (e.g.uses safaricom modem for browsing ) I am ready to sell it (Sambaza) and send 10% extra airtime free. You will need to M-Pesa me. Please call to confirm how much is left before you send. Bye Tel: 0722889860

Kenya Film Classification Board
by Thuo Wilson 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hi, Just had to pour this: Am getting disturbed every-time i see KFCB advert on TV. Not the advert itself but in the role they play and the message they want to pass to us; I have read their mandate on the web and is not very definitive. I may be a bit backward but am wondering; - Who are they telling NOT to buy unclassified films off the street. - What is a "film" in their definition. - Is online movie/streaming/downloading for personal viewing a "Film" at home/cellphone etc - Who classifies and what moral values they have. Have seen rated 16 that even u feel ashamed to watch with other people of my early 30's. - How does this classification work exactly, do they view the "film" then rate? - When you rate a "film" 18 and above and bring it after the 9oclock prime-time news on saturday/friday who should control - Parent or those we pay to safe-guard morals in the society? - Why are they advising us as viewers, yet themselves can't regulate the media who influences a lot of people than dvd's on the street? I watched media degenerate into this for the last 10 years and i didn't speak. - What of the evening explicit music shows - Does this fall under "film" - are they clasified. - Are they mandated to control the online film/content/movies/streaming - if so, do they have the legal mandate or technical know-how in dealing with this? - Finally - i no longer buy DVDs and many of us here do not, other that music (local). When that era is done what will they be regulating? - The future like one said here is streaming....etc. Will they be able to contols anything, anything i mean? Am not trying to undermine it, just to understand. If the KFCB role is only classification, who has the mandate to regulate content and not just classifications in Kenya? Kind Regards, Wilson./
