\u201cWe are hoping for a bit of a change this year,\u201d says MultiChoice Malawi Managing Director, Gus Banda in a statement from the company that is celebrating its 50th Anniversary.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will be running a competition to spoil customers and their mums with a Mother\u2019s Day luncheon and limited edition of the 25th anniversary merchandise with the purchase of a GOtv decoder in the month of October.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we celebrate 25 years of Sankha Wekha, we want to ensure we include our customers in this celebration, because they continue to choose us and we choose to celebrate our 25th anniversary milestone and Mother\u2019s Day with them through these special offers\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n

Mother\u2019s Day has been traditionally celebrated in Malawi in October since time immemorial and in the past it was enjoyed at a special mass gathering at the national stadiums graced by former President, late Dr. Hastings Kamuzu Banda.<\/p>\n

The rest of the citizenry joined the celebration tradition on the same day or thereafter, by visiting their parents with various gifts \u2014 a heritage which is still kept to date.<\/p>\n

Thus MultiChoice\u2019s choice opting for a bit of a change this year to celebrate their journey that began 25 years ago and serviced many mothers whose children inherited the tradition of registering for the first-ever pay TV business in Malawi.<\/p>\n

The company started as a joint venture between Raise Limited a Malawian owned firm, and MultiChoice Africa Holdings and as the business continued to grow and expand it resulted in the launch of GOtv in 2013, which enriched Malawians\u2019 lives through entertaining, educating and financially empowering communities through Sankha Wekha registration agents.<\/p>\n

Banda added that \u201cin the last 25 years, the business has made tremendous strides and invested in various initiatives that have further allowed us to continue providing Malawians with solutions that are aimed at optimising our customer touchpoints, while ensuring we enhance and simplify how our customers interact with our products and services thereby putting our customers first.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough our business operations, investments in technology, local infrastructure, CSI initiatives, value added services and local partnerships, we are proud to have been able to enrich lives.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
