DSTV services to resume in Malawi this Friday

By Chisomo Phiri

The Malawi Communications Regulatory Authority (MACRA) says MultiChoice Malawi will resume providing DStv services in the country by this Friday.

In a statement signed by MACRA Director General, Daud Suleman, the development follows its meeting with Multichoice Malawi on Monday in Lilongwe.

The statement says the two sides have agreed to resolve their dispute in a manner that balances the interests of either party and within the boundaries of the applicable law.

This comes a week after Information Minister Moses Kunkuyu ordered MACRA to withdraw its court case against MCA so that the issue should be resolved outside court.

MCA withdrew the DStv services in the country after the communications regulator stopped it from hiking subscription tariffs.
