may be ChinaSat 6B at 115.5°E, lots of channels from china, how big is your dish, you may need 1.8m dish for this satellite to receive complete channels

or Palapa D at 113.0°E, lots of indo channels, 1.5m dish

pointing you dish to the right satellite is quite involved, pick you satellite first then do the next step: calculate the satellite dish angles

you can pick a satellite here http://www.lyngsat.com/asia.html

AsiaSat 3S at 105.5°E got a few indian channels, one of them is STAR Utsav, got web site too http://starutsav.indya.com/

for other indian channels, go here http://www.lyngsat.com/AsiaSat-3S.html

go to this list http://www.lyngsat.com/asia.html
look inside each satellite, then click on transponder footprint, if it's beam cover over malaysia, then you can receive the channel

so what sort of channels are you interested in watching? these Free-to-ar channels are very limited in selection, some avalable channels are in language such as Siam, Indo, Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkian, Hakka, Indian, Pakistan, ......

yes there is, but is a bit pricey, this motorised add-on you can ask your installer, I think it is readily available in Thailand

but the trend now is to install multiple dishes each pointing to separate satellite, then hook up all the dishes to a DiSEqC switch

those dreambox thing is for watching encrypted channel

for motorised dish I don't know much about it, I think you need to change the whole dish and decoder, ask your installer

magic box? what is that?

If you want to DIY pointing to another satellite, I may help you a bit, but as I said in previous post, it is a bit involved, not for the faint-hearted

as for English FTA channels, quite a lot in asiasat 3s, other satellite such as Intelsat 8 at 166.0°E got 2 channels only: BBC world news and Australian network channel, very limited selection

or subscribe to astro, plenty of english channels

usually the box is used to watch pay satellite TV illegally
