Free-to-air TV to go digital soon

PETALING JAYA: Free-to-air television viewers will have access to more channels and greater interactivity with an impending switch from analogue broadcast to a new era of digital TV.

Communications and Multimedia Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek said the Digital Terrestrial TV (DTT) project next year would transform Malaysia into an advanced broadcasting hub in the region.

The DTT technology offers high quality TV and radio services, connected services (Catch-Up TV, online games, video-on-demand, T-commerce (television commerce) and soft services (e-learning and SMS voting) via broadband application.

Ahmad Shabery said the idea was mooted when many people asked him to give more time to air parliamentary sittings on TV.

“The Government wants to be open and allow the public to see their MPs debating. But there are constraints including low spectrum and frequency under the analogue broadcast system,” he said in his speech during the MYTV DTT Transformation launch here on Wednesday night.

Puncak Semangat Sdn Bhd director Datuk Hilmi Mohd Noor said the company would ensure that the project would be completed within two years to benefit some six million households in the country.

“DTT services will be rolled out in four phases, starting in Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang next year.

“This will be followed by Phase 2 in Sabah and Sarawak, Phase 3 in Perlis, Kedah, Penang, Negri Sembilan, Malacca and Johor while the final phase will be implemented in Selangor, Klang Valley, Putrajaya and remaining parts of the country,” he said.

Puncak Semangat, which was awarded a 15-year concession by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission, will invest RM2bil to develop DTT infrastructure and facilities.

Lets just hope we really do see something early next year in Kelantan and other Phase 1 area. Really hope this FINALLY takes off lol.

Why Malaysia didn't went with ISDB-T but decided to use DVB-T?

Brazil and Japan using ISDB-T

govt should FREE the high speed internet access before this digital tv implementation, that will boost economy more.

Digital TV is nothing new in this region. more content and choices are true. as it could be "programmed", it is very easy to control and monitor, that is why some monopolized party in some countries are eagerly to implement. pros and cons, we only have one choice, JUST TAKE IT

Yang dapat 4G license dulu if im not mistaken

Put lar some nice FTA satellite channels like Arirang TV, NHK World, Channel News Asia, CTV Taiwan, TVBS..

If with small monthly fee like RM10/month also ok.

kelantan kawasan x berapa nak ada. kalau fail proejk rugi x banyak. kalau kawasan kl rugi gila kalau projek x jadik

inilah masanya untuk promote tv led pada mereka. tiada cash? Hutang kami berikan

30 channel n nothing intereresting...msia lack talent cause by strick censor
n tv control

Talking rots again. No way we can be a broadcasting hub. We are the last one to turn off Analog (Other Asian countries turning off in 2015. Malaysia 2016). Add in censorship and monopoly there is zero chance. Censorship stifles creativity, monopoly destroys the economy.

Eh, the 4K broadcast is not for consumer consumption. There is no final transmission standard can handle 4K in fact. All digital TV standards currently cap out at 1080i. Not even 1080p. The 4k broadcast is just a trial by several standards bodies with no finalized specifications.

Besides, last two World Cup transmissions have HD feed, but only on assteruk...

Because Malaysia analog standard is PAL? DVB-T is primarily optimized for PAL countries.

Apparently only countries whose analog standard is NTSC is choosing ISDB-T or ATSC. Actually I'm puzzled as to why Philippines chose ISDB-T instead of ATSC like South Korea.

Then they launch own transmitter in Selangor only...
