The broadcasting regulator has approved broadcasting licences for seven new pay-TV channels to be broadcast by TrueVisions to replace HBO Asia’s feed, which will be cancelled on January 1.
Pakdee Manaves, deputy secretary-general of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission, said Thursday that the NBTC’s broadcasting committee approved the licence applications submitted by the country’s largest subscription-based TV operator.
The company needed seven licences for Warner TV, Paramount Channel HD, Celestial Classic Movies, Food Network, Fox Action Movies HD, Sony Channel and True Film HD 2 to replace six pay-TV channels from HBO Asia after it failed to renew a content-distribution agreement with HBO.
