Bélgica

Communications Telephone Country code: 32. For operator services, dial 1324. There are call boxes in all major towns and country districts. Some card phones and credit card phones are also available. Telecards are available from newsagents, railway stations and post offices. Mobile Telephone Roaming agreements exist with most international mobile phone companies. Coverage is excellent. Internet Internet cafes are widely available throughout the country. Media As a result of its political and linguistic divide, Belgium has two separate public broadcasting organisations, with their own regulations, running their own radio, TV and external broadcasting. At least nine out of 10 Belgiums receive cable TV, one of the highest take-up rates in the world. The cable services offer dozens of domestic and foreign channels, including Dutch and French TV stations. The Belgian press is self-regulated by the Federation of Editors, to which all editors of major newspapers belong. A small number of media groups own the main newspaper titles. Post Airmail takes two to three days to other west European destinations. Post office hours: Mon-Fri 0900-1700 (hours can vary). Press Principal daily newspapers are La Lanterne, La Libre Belgique, La Meuse, Le Soir (French) and De Morgen, De Gentenaar, De Standaard, Het Laatste Nieuws, Het Nieuwsblad, De Financieel Economische Tijd, a business publication (Dutch), and Grenz-Echo (German).
