    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) China Radio Station has been broadcasting at the KBC from September 2002. It started broadcasting at the KBC after having entered into a bilateral agreement in May, 2001. (b) So far, the KBC television has ceded to the Chinese media 1,240 hours to date and the KBC radio 2,726 hours at a charge of US$500 per hour, for a total of US$1,983,000. The charges are based on prevailing market rates. (c) At the launch of China Radio International, the Kenya Government requested to be given a licence to broadcast in Beijing China on a reciprocal basis and is waiting to be allowed a frequency where issues of export trade and investment will be broadcasted, among other subjects. Once we get the frequency, we shall inform the Ministry of Trade and Industry to take advantage of the facility. The KBC also benefits from this arrangement through the following. (i) It receives a sum of Kshs450,000 every month for co-locating their transmitters with the KBC at Limuru. (ii) They have donated equipment worth Kshs15 million. (iii) They have trained two KBC technicians."
