Japan grants Botswana P17m set-top boxes

Ambassador of Japan to Botswana Takeda Kozo and Minister of Finance and Economic Development, Dr Thapelo Matsheka yesterday in Gaborone signed the grant agreement.  The signing was done separately between Takeda and Matsheka to avoid close contact with each other due to the dreaded coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

In February 2013, Botswana announced the adoption of the Japanese standard for its DTV and first broadcasted by Botswana Television (BTV).
