Zimbabwe has started importing 400 000 television set-top boxes from China to enable locals to continue watching TV after switching from analogue to digital.
A set-top box enables the receiving and decoding of digital television broadcasts and Zimbabwe is currently in the process of installing digital transmitters as the country battles to complete broadcasting digitalisation before year-end.
Information, Media and Broadcasting Services permanent secretary George Charamba said that Government had already ordered the TV set-top boxes from Huawei in China as the country geared up for digitalisation.
