    {
      "question": "Which prefixes are mobile numbers in Cape Verde?",
      "answer": "Mobile numbers start with 3, 5 or 9 in national form; the mobile regular expression on this page gives the exact ranges (example: 991 12 34). The carrier table shows which prefix blocks were allocated to which operator."

      "question": "Can a mobile number in Cape Verde be ported to another carrier?",
