Digital migration: CA's action cause for worry

NAIROBI: The Pan African Network Group (PANG), the Chinese consortium licensed by the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA), has come under criticism from the Digital Broadcasters Association which incorporates all the media houses that have already adopted the digital signal transmission.

The media houses now claim PANG overcharges them and should be de-licensed to pave way for an Independent Transmission Authority. That was expected and the fact that a different consortium of industry players other than those under the Africa Digital Network (ADN) are complaining, raises great concerns.
