Land Rights in Kenya: Land Rates and Taxes.

  in 2015 having been suspended in 1985. CGT is charged at the rate of 5% of the gain. There are various exemptions on CGT provided under the ITA. The tax on rental income is a tax arising from the gains and profits for occupation of property. The ITA provides for various ways of taxing rental income; Where the rent is payable to a non-resident, the tenant is required to withhold 30% of the rent and remit it to the Kenya Revenue Authority. The tax withheld is a final tax. Where the rent is payable to a resident, if the property is commercial, the tenant being an appointed agent, is required to withhold 10 % of the rent. The tax withheld is not a final tax and the landlord is required to file their income tax in the usual way. Where the rent is payable to a resident and the property is residential, the landlord may opt to either pay a monthly rental income tax, computed at 10 % of the gross rent a (final tax) or pay the instalment tax and final income tax in the usual way.

USING A MOBILE PHONE BEFORE GOING TO BED





Using a mobile phone before going to bed could stop you from getting a decent night's sleep, A research suggests.


A study That was carried out by Sweden's Karolinska Institute and Wayne State University in the US suggests radiation from the handset can cause insomnia, headaches and confusion. This study is the most comprehensive  and was funded by the cell phone industry. Published by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Progress in Electromagnetics Research Symposium and funded by the Mobile Manufacturers Forum, representing the main handset companies, it has caused serious concern among top sleep experts over the "more than sufficient evidence" showing that the radiation "affects deep sleep".

The scientists concluded: "The study indicates that during laboratory exposure to 884 MHz wireless signals components of sleep believed to be important for recovery from daily wear and tear are adversely affected."( Read the whole study)


Could there be some truth?Well,I recall one time I received a 13 minute call before going to bed and I couldn't just explain what happened after.All I know was ,I was having headache.How I got the headache I still don't know.Could there be a link between the 13 minute call and the headache?
Well,if I can refer to the study,then I think I now know the answer. Here is a  Thermographic image of your head after a 15 minute call 
.Could the same have happened to me after the 13 minute call?
