Satellite television operators ZAP e DSTV had a drop in the number of subscribers - about 179 thousand customers during 2019, based on data released by Angolan Institute of Communications (INACOM).

The recent changes in the prices of the operators' packages end up being the reasons for many people to stop being customers of the operators mentioned above. And further changes in tariff prices are expected during the current year, which could further reduce customers to operators.
