Against the removal of SIC Internacional bt DSTV
This petition is to tell DSTV that the Portuguese community in South Africa is aggrieved by the removal of the Portuguese channel SIC, without any consultation with the Portuguese Community in South Africa.
When SIC in Portugal was contacted they have informed us that it was DSTV in South Africa that did not want to renew the contract with them. This is what the older Portuguese community have relied on for many years to watch news and current affairs in a language that they could understand and feel comfortable with.
As a community we have never complained about paying extra for this channel. We feel that we have been highly disrespected and that DSTV have no consideration for the Portuguese residents living in South Africa.
Background of the Portuguese Community in South Africa.
South African’s of Portuguese descent are the third largest “white South African” ethnic group, after the Afrikaans and English, amounting to something between 10 and 15% of the white population in South Africa. According to Statistics South Africa, European descents make up to 9.3% of our population, which is higher than the coloured community in South Africa, which make up 8.8% of the population.
