Click here to find a Date! Single Men & Ladies for Love &  Marriage  Call/Sms 0722244271 or 0733222008. We also have Gay, Lesb & Mpango wa kando
HOW TO TRANSFER MONEY FROM M-PESA TO CO-OPERATIVE BANK :

To deposit money into your bank account,Ensure you have enough cash in your M-PESA account to cover the deposit and transaction charges. It is important to note that while us Mpesa will deduct its charges from your Mpesa Account, Co-operative Bank deducts their charges in your bank account.
Meaning after the transfer, your new Bank account balance will be less the transaction fees. The transaction charges are:

RangeM-Pesa Charges (Charged in your M-pesa Account)Coop Bank Charges (Charged in your Bank Account)Total
Ksh.100 – Ksh. 2,499Ksh. 30Ksh. 30Ksh. 60
Ksh. 2,500 – Ksh. 4,999Ksh. 50Ksh. 50Ksh. 100
Ksh. 5,000 – Ksh. 9,999Ksh. 75Ksh. 75Ksh. 150
Ksh. 10,000 – Ksh. 19,999Ksh. 100Ksh. 100Ksh. 200
Ksh. 20,000 – Ksh. 35,000Ksh. 150Ksh. 150Ksh. 300
  1. Go to the Mpesa menu on your phone and select Pay Bill option.
  2. Enter business no. 400200
  3. Enter your Cooperative Bank Account no.
  4. Enter the amount to transfer (maximum amount per transaction 1s Ksh. 35,000, and Ksh.70,000 maximum within 24 hours)
  5. Enter your M-PESA PIN number
  6. Confirm your details and press OK/Send
Next, you will receive and SMS from M-PESA showing the amount has been transfered from your account, it reads: ” BBBBBB confirm sent to Co-operative Bank Money Transfer for account on 05/12/10 at 11:30 am.New M-PESA balance is
Shortly after (approximately 5 minutes), you will receive an SMS from Cooperative Bank confirming that the money will indeed be transfered to your account: “M-Pesa Paybill Amount = will be transferred to bank A/c , , shortly. Co-operative Bank K Ltd.”
In one hours time, the money will be available in your account for any other transaction e.g online transaction using your ATM Card
HOW TO TRANSFER MONEY FROM CO-OPERATIVE BANK TO M-PESA:
Now, to Access money in your bank account for different services, You need to have registered for M banking at any Cooperative Bank Branch.
Then on your phone press *667#. A menu will appear on your phone from which you select what M banking service you need as follows :
5. Mpesa
4. Airtime (Pre-paid only)
3. Utilities
2. Alerts
1. Banking
0. Call center Number
Press the number against the service you need. In our case you press 5 and follow the intuitive wizard. However, you need to be fast in keying in information in each step, if you delay for more than say 60 seconds in a single step, the system does not complete your request and you have to start afresh.
As at the date of this post, Cooperative bank charges a flat fee  Ksh. 60 to transfer money to your MPesa account regardless of the amount. You are however limited to transfering a total of Ksh. 75,000 within 24 hours. Once the money is in your Mpesa account, normal Mpesa charges will apply for any further transactions e.g withdrawing the money from an Mpesa agent.
Now you have no excuse to be stranded in the bush with money in your account!

       Undergraduate Students:
      The Board’s objective is to give financial support to needy Kenyan students in institutions of higher learning both locally and abroad. However, due to financial constraints, it is currently not in a position to provide loans to students studying outside the country and those on self sponsored programmes (commonly known as the ‘parallel programmes’). Therefore, at the moment, it gives loans to the following category of students
      Needy Kenyan students who are admitted to public universities through the Joint Admissions Board and to those attending private chartered universities.

      - Q: How much loan can one get?
      - A: In accordance with the current cost sharing policy, a student is required to pay Kshs.50,000/- per year to train at a public university. Out of this amount, HELB can award a maximum loan and bursary of Kshs.55,000/- and Kshs.8,000 respectively.

      - Q: When can one apply for a HELB loan?

      The Board maintains a deadline and those applications received after the deadline without justifiable reasons are not processed.
      - Q: When are loan awards released?
      - A:
      HELB releases loan results before the new academic year starts. Thereafter, students who fail to secure a loan or are awarded inadequate amounts are encouraged to appeal. Each appeal is reviewed on its own merit.
      If one fails to get a loan, the following could be possible reasons:
      The student may not have provided adequate information about himself /herself as requested.
      The student may have provided false information on the loan application form.


      Please be warned that students who obtain loans through misrepresentation of facts will be prosecuted in accordance with the law.
      How to apply for a loan from HELB?
      1- Loan application forms are also obtainable from the District Education Officers for students applying for loans for the first time while continuing students may obtain the forms from the  offices of Registrars or Deans of Students in the various universities

      The Higher Education Loans Board has the responsibility of developing the nation's human capital and ensuring that the nation has a large pool of highly trained and skilled human resource to man the different sectors of the economy, hence this category of loans is based on academic merit rather than financial needs.

      To achieve this goal the Board awards loans to about 200 postgraduate students every year i.e. for Masters and Doctoral Studies. Doctoral students are awarded on average Kshs. 150,000 per year while Masters students receive Kshs.80,000/= [for humanities] and Kshs. 100,000 [for science based subjects].The loans are available to students in both public and private chartered universities. The loans are advertised in June every year and the beneficiaries are announced before the beginning of the academic year in September.

      The Higher Education Loans Board has finalized the disbursement of loans,bursaries and scholarships to university students for the 2011/2012 financial year, and is pleased to publish an analysis of the same for public information.

      During the fiscal year 2011/2012, the Board disbursed a total of Kshs.4,810,876,250 to 106,136 Kenyan students pursuing undergraduate and post graduate university education in Kenya and the East African Community countries.



      The provision of financial support to Kenyans pursuing higher education is an umbrella responsibility embracing our flagship projects during the 2011/2012 financial year.

      Welcome to HELB

      A welcome article on their website states that the Higher Education Loans Board was established by an Act of Parliament. The statute known as The Higher Education Loans Board Act, 1995 was legally established as Act number 3 of 1995. It came into existence on the 21st day of July 1995 through Kenya Gazette Supplement (Cap 213A).

      Since the inception of the Higher Education Loans Board,emphasis has been placed on effective communication and information technology as the pillar underpinning our success.

      The HELB board believes in the value of communication.It has transformed the Board from an organization whose operations were largely manual to one that applies modern technology to enhance service delivery. 

      The history of the Higher Education Loans Board dates back to 1952 when the then colonial government awarded loans under the then Higher Education Loans Fund [HELF] to Kenyans pursuing university education in universities outside East Africa notably Britain, the USA, the former USSR, India and South Africa.  Students who were pursuing university education in universities outside East Africa and were not on scholarships were advanced loans by the then government against securities such as Land Title Deeds, Insurance policies and Written Guarantees.However by 1974, provision of education in general had expanded dramatically as a result of the heavily subsidized primary and secondary education and the general yearning for education by most Kenyan families. Consequently, the number of students seeking university education had grown to an extent that it was becoming increasingly difficult to adequately finance university education by providing full scholarships and grants by the Government.

      The Government therefore introduced the University Students Loans Scheme (USLS), which was managed by the Ministry of Education. Under the scheme, Kenyan students pursuing higher education at Makerere, Nairobi and Dar es Salaam universities received loans to cover their tuition and personal needs, which they would repay on completion of their education. However, the University Students Loans Scheme (USLS) was plagued with a number of problems right on the onset. It lacked the legal basis to recover matured loans from loanees. In addition, the general public and university students wrongly perceived that the loan was a grant from the government, which was not to be repaid.

      In order to address this problem, in July 1995 the Government through an act of Parliament established the Higher Education Loans Board to administer the Student Loans Scheme. In addition, the Board is also empowered to recover all outstanding loans given to former university students by the Government of Kenya since 1952 through HELF and to establish a Revolving Fund from which funds can be drawn to lend out to needy Kenyan students pursuing higher education. The establishment of a revolving fund was also expected to ease pressure on the exchequer in financing education, which currently stands at 40% of the annual national budget.

      Shift From Analogue to Digital TV


      Click here to find a Date! Single Men & Ladies for Love &  Marriage  Call/Sms 0722244271 or 0733222008. We also have Gay, Lesb & Mpango wa kando
      According to the Digital Video Broadcasting Project,this year, Kenya will migrate its four million analogue TV viewers to the digital platform. The switch over is the culmination of a journey that started in 2006, during the World Radio Conference in which all countries of the world agreed to adopt digital TV broadcasting by 2015.

      Subsequently, the Ministry of Information and Communications set up the Digital Television Committee (DTC) to spearhead the implementation and to advise the Government on the migration process.
      The DTC is made up of representatives from the Ministry of Information and Communications, Kenya Broadcasting Corporation, private broadcasters, National Communications Secretariat and the ICT sector regulator - the Communications Commission of Kenya.
      One of its first tasks was to advise the Government on the appropriate digital technology, which led to the adoption of the DVB T standard that the public broadcaster, KBC, subsequently used to deploy the digital platform in Nairobi and its environs. In 2010, the Government resolved to upgrade to the DVB T2 standard, which has better spectral efficiency.
      KBC subsequently upgraded its digital platform to the DVB T2 standard, which is now available in Nairobi and its environs. Most regions of the country are expected to be covered before the end of this year. More...

      The Permanent Secretary called on the private sector to import DVB T2 compliant set top boxes for sale in the country to facilitate access to digital TV services by the public.

      TV migration suffers from funding shortfall
      According to business daily a lack of funds will hamper Kenya's migration from analogue to digital TV in 2012.

      The report says that the government had allocated KES 650 million (€5.5 mill) to the project while the full switch, due to start in seven months, requires KES 3 billion (€25 mill).

      The Communications Council of Kenya (CCK) said the country has prioritised next year's general election, which is diverting attention from digital migration. Limited fiscal allocation for migration infrastructure rollout has delayed the process, Rosemary Mwangi, an officer at CCK's digital wing secretariat, told Business Daily. She said the scheme was allocated KES 250 million (€2.1 mill) in the supplementary budget of 2010/2011 and another KES 400 million (€3.4 mill) in the 2011/2012 budget.

      The total budget is supposed to be utilised for building towers, upgrading equipment and consumer education. The project will see all television users migrate to a DVB-T2 signal network.

      Kenya to scrap tax on digital set-top boxes after EAC deal
      Kenya has won approval from its East African Community (EAC) partners to remove taxes on set-top digital TV converter boxes, according to reports attributed to Business Daily. The tax exemption aims to make set-top boxes affordable and cuts the cost by 25%. They currently sell for between KES 3,000 (€25) and KES 10,000 (€83). The decision was reached by a committee of the regional ministers of transport, communication and meteorology in Arusha two weeks ago. The agreement paves the way for the region's finance ministers to scrap the 25% common external tariff. Kenya has been lobbying to remove custom taxes on the equipment since late 2009 when President Kibaki directed the Treasury to make them affordable, but the region's Custom Union Management Act required a consensus from all the five EAC states to do so. The deadline for the switchover to digital broadcasting in Kenya is in 2012.

      Broadcasters to jointly apply for 3rd DTT licence
      All of Kenya's free-to-air television broadcasters will form a joint company to obtain a licence to broadcast digital signals across the country according to reports attributed to Business Daily online.


      The move is expected to end the stand-off between the Information Ministry and broadcasters such as Nation Media Group (NTV) and Royal Media Services (Citizen TV), who had protested when the second digital broadcasting licence was given to China's Pan African Network Group.

      The acting Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK) director-general, Francis Wangusi, said the Ministry of Information had instructed it to issue the third licence to a single company owned by all of the existing broadcasters. Wangusi said the firms will need to form the joint company and show proof of common shareholding. The Media Owners Association (MOA) says it has formed the joint company as required by the CCK, but that the regulator has not made substantive steps to award it the licence.

      There are more than twenty television firms currently broadcasting in various parts of Kenya.

      DTT in Kenya officially launched

      President Mwai Kibaki officially launched DVB-T based Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) broadcasting in Kenya at a ceremony in the grounds of the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC) on Wednesday the 9th December.
      The President observed, "We must use the expanded broadcasting space to build on our national unity and expand on the development agenda. Let us always remember that the expanded media freedom must never be used to undermine our sense of nationhood as underscored in our national anthem, may we dwell in unity, peace and liberty.''

      He went on to say that "There are many Kenyan investors who are waiting to be allocated frequencies. We have applications for 60 TV licenses and more than 150 for FM radio. Currently this demand cannot be met. With the migration to digital broadcasting, it will now be possible to award new licenses, increasing choice and giving more room to a broader democratic space."

      He noted that the Government had set a deadline for full migration to DTT by the year 2012 despite the one set by the International Telecommunications Union of 2015.
      The launch, which marked phase one of transition to Digital Television Broadcasting, covers Nairobi and its environs, among them Kajiado, Machakos, Naivasha and Muranga.

      The Digital Transition Begins

      Kenya began its official journey from analogue to digital TV on the 31st September 2009, when the state broadcaster KBC started the migration from analogue to digital transmission.
      The system adopted for Kenya is DVB-T with MPEG-4, H.264.AVC coding and the first transmissions start in Nairobi, Naivasha, Machakos, Kajiado and Muranga using a single multiplex. 

      Before the 2010 World Cup, coverage will have been extended to Webuye, Nyeri, Mombasa, Kisumu, Nakuru, Eldoret, Meru, Kisii and Malindi.
      The service is operated by Signet, a subsidiary of the Kenyan Broadcasting Corporation (KBC), specifically set up to broadcast and distribute the DTT signals. It will operate on an open basis providing broadcasters with a route to switch from analogue to digital transmission and minimise anti-competitive behaviour. 

      Until 2012, when the transition to digital has been completed, Signet will carry private broadcasters signals free of charge, but will charge for its services after this date.
      The complete switch to digital broadcasting is expected to cost Sh6 billion (USD 80 million) and an initial Sh152 million (USD 2 million) has already been allocated.

      At present there are around 4 million TV households in Kenya and it has been proposed by the Digital Television Committee that the government subsidise or provide incentives for consumers to purchase compliant equipment on a similar basis to the coupon system recently used in the United States.
      At a recent press conference the Information and Communication Permanent Secretary, Dr Bitange Ndemo said that Nairobi University and Jomo Kenyatta University would take a technological lead in the DTT process.

Koigi wa Wamwere, who led the Kenyan delegation, said that with the new technology it would no longer be necessary for players in the broadcasting sector to invest in expensive infrastructure for transmission. “Investors will only be required to concentrate on content creation and leave the multiplex operators to handle the distribution of the programmes” he went on to say.

       
      In his paper ‘Establishing a Viable Broadcasting Policy for Africa: What are the Stakes and Options?’ Hon. Koigi wa Wamwere, noted that Africa has no option than to digitise radio and TV broadcasting in line with the worlds change to digital technology or perish as a continent. He said that Africans were already starved of information about their own societies, countries, other African countries and the world.
      ’Our thirst for information is big and it must be quenched quickly’ He went on to say that for the people to have more information more radio and TV stations were required and because the spectrum was already crowded the only way to obtain the additional space required was through digitisation.
