thanks again.....if i upgrade from my current normal decoder to byond decoder its FREE....and let say i opt for super packs - RM 125....do the RM 20 exclude or include?
remember RM 20 is for enjoying HD contents....since in super pack already having these HD channels...so i just have to pay RM 125...rite? correct me if i'm wrong...not RM 125 + RM 20.... hmm.gif

The SP1 already include the HD service and recording fee. U just need to pay RM125 + 6% tax = RM132.50.

Looks like the additional ASSP HD 2 channel 830 claimed by asstro in the new packaging and rates is NOT a permanent channel ! shakehead.gif doh.gif.

The cables you get for upgrading to astro b.yond:

20m RG-5 Coaxial Cable
1 set RCA cable
1 HDMI cable

Extra coaxial cable price is depends on the installer

What I mean is why go and broadcast a far away arab English channel when

1. This is not an official English country such as UK, USA, Australia, Canada

2. It is not an East Asia country (includes SEA) where news are more relevant.


Singapore or Thailand English Channels would be more relevant as these countries are closer physically to Malaysia even though they don't fall under criteria 1 above.

What happen in Singapore or Thailand can have immediate effect on Malaysia as they are our nearest neighbours, yet we hardly hear any news on them.

I think Astro sucks !

Thailand and all other countries in Asia can get CNA but not Malaysia. Talk about 'democracy'.

Anyway, I would rather have another TRUE English channel such as Canadian broadcasting rather than Al jazeera which is an Arab channel  whistling.gif

If we can't get the one from Singapore...

English official languages in these countries:
USA
UK
Australia
Canada

Singapore (for those news from East Asia)

Sarawak only get CNA thru PaRABOLA..smile.gif not FTa

Agree with you.

If we want govt propaganda, we can watch those free to air TV1, TV2 TV3, NTV7, TV8, TV9, Awani (astro), Bernama (astro) rclxub.gif
8 Channels still not enough meh ? laugh.gif

The problem is some of us want to pay money to receive more balanced news.

Sad to say, the average people here who don't travel overseas don't know much about Thailand or Singapore even though they are our closest neighbours. Even Thailand, Indonesia, Philipines, Taiwan, HK allows English news from Singapore.

Channel NewsAsia has two separate feeds namely a Singapore feed - Channel NewsAsia Singapore - and International feed - Channel NewsAsia International. Both feeds have the almost the same programmes especially since Singapore Tonight and Singapore Business Tonight started airing live International on 12 February 2001. The exception to this is 20/20 which only airs in Singapore. The Singapore feed airs a total of 20 hours of programmes while the international feed airs 30 minutes longer to include a replay of Singapore news. As the channel is about to startup (sign-on) and closedown (sign-off) the national anthem is played in Singapore.

Star to invest RM35m for 51pc in Li TV

STAR Publications (Malaysia) Bhd is investing RM35 million for a 51 per cent stake in Li TV Holdings Ltd, an Asian television channel operator.

It signed an investment agreement with Li TV and Juita Viden International Ltd, a member of the Juita Viden Media Entertainment Group, Malaysia’s largest independent television programme distributor in Malaysia.

“The investment in Li TV is part of our strategy of diversifying into media that we currently do not have within our portfolio of media assets,” Star executive deputy chairman Datuk Vincent Lee said ina statement.

Li TV’s lifestyle channel Li, Life Inspired is Asia’s first high definition lifestyle TV channel.


It is shown over Astro’s channel 706 and other Pay TV broadcasters in Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia and Taiwan.

The channel started its broadcast in 2009.

Anyone subscribed to Super Pack 3? It seems value for money if one already subscribed to HD service + dynasty package......

Today I got a mail from Astro promoting the Super Pack 3, i saw there is an option to upgrade to B.yond box FREE but upgrade to B.Yond PVR need to pay RM150 for installation fee? Why do they need to charge as I already have the B.yond, if I opt for first choice which is the B.yond upgrade what is the point?

Apparently, Package 1 is tailored more to Malays, whilst Package Two is for Indians, & Package 3 is more suitable for Chinese.
Not saying that to be racist, as I know there are people that watch programmes in other language, but they are not many.
