In this age of mobilephone filmmaking and microfilms, I'm wondering, will that budding filmmaker in Turkana have to apply for a film license in order to make her zero budget, independent 40 second experimental mobilephone microfilm? How many days or weeks will she have to wait for the paperwork? Is there a film office in Turkana or will she be required to come to Nairobi? Could Huduma centres also deal with filmmaking paperwork?

<div>Interesting.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1. I thought a KFCB already existed, or which is that one of Mutau who has been having problems with US visa and suppressing and opposing LGBT rights and atheists?</div>
<div>2. It's like an afterthought that someone decided to throw in the computer games. Is one supposed to obtain a licence to write or create these games like with films. The part of the document that deals with films and stage plays substantively does not deal with computer games.</div>
<div>3. The part about ISPs is thrown in by someone who is completely ignorant. ISPs do not deal with content; they don't even see it (and they should not!). An ISP is just a conduit or facilitator. Do these people expect an ISP to employ people to screen content of their clients?</div>
<div>4. If we are not careful Kenya will start going backwards as more people come up with all kinds of proposed legislation; what is there to stop film makers moving to neighbouring countries and taking all those jobs with them?</div>
<div>5. Speak up!</div>

Yes, it's the one. Of special interest to ISPs is section 39.<br>
