About Me

My names are Japhet SIALYOBO Kasiya born in a polygamist marriage. My Father is married to five wives but they got divorced with my mother. We move to Mazabuka with my Mother from KALOMO town. My mom then got married again and in 1995 I started school and completed at a High school within the same town at At edmunds school. I went to Evelyn Home college under sponsorship because my step Father was a bricklayer and could not manage to sponsor me. Therefore I was lucky to be put under the bursary. After I completed school there was no employment and I just started working on other people laptops. I raised some money and started going to joberg South Africa but because of the cost of transport I stopped and concentrated on repairing, though now am just buying from the local suppliers. My dream is to setup a big computer shop so that people are well acquainted with ICT. Mazabuka is one of the fastest growing towns. People speak English with Tonga as the local language. Am happily married with one kid. Am a Seventh day Adventist so every Saturday i go to church with my wife and besides that, I also have started keeping chicken, guine fowl and turkeys on a small farm in the outskirts of town. I plan to expand this later.

My Business

Laptop Reseller and Repairer. I did computer systems engineering at Evelyn Home college diploma level. I opened a repairing shop and I also order laptops from Lusaka Zambia and resell here in Malaysia Zambia. The computer business is going on so well all what is needed is capital to boost the Business. The loan will also help me order computer spare parts such as batteries, power packs, Rams, webcames, hardrives etc.

Loan Proposal

I would love to Order Desktops computers and Laptop accessories and resell them within Mazabuka Town from Lusaka the capital city of Zambia. The government of the republic of Zambia has introduced ICT course in school but the schools lack such equipment like desktop computers and I would love to take advantage of such an opportunity.
The following is the break down of things to be Ordered :
Fullset desktop computers x3 at $100 each= $300
Laptop Power packs X 5 at $10 each = $50
HP Laptop batteries X 2 at $30 each =$60
Total Amount = $410

Total Probable Income after selling
Desktops x3 at $1300 each =$390 profit $90
Power packs x5 at $15 each =$75 profit $25
Batteries x2 at $40 each =$80 profit $20

Total probable profit =$135 for the first Transaction.
Thank you.
