2.13 The advertising market is large enough to support
a diversity of media outlets
Due to no law on public advertising, the Mozambican advertising market is
weak, poor and incipient in a framework where political control of advertising
or publicity is still predominant – mainly in what concerns public advertising.
According to the panel, commercial businesses do not consider publicity as an
investment, rather as a kind of supposedly social responsibility activity or a tool
to show power or influence the media corporations’ agendas.
