France 24 is also offered in the Philippines, by 17 national cable operators, in Macao, on Macau Cable TV and in Hong Kong on Now TV and HKBN.
In Africa, France 24 starts on new South African Top TV platform and on Tanzania’s Star TV.
The channel also mentions that its out-of-home broadcasting is also growing as it passed the one million mark for hotel room availability.
