Voluntary Separation Scheme,employees can opt to accept whatever cash given and quit or stay and face the music! VSS is actually a tactic used  to avoid a bad name or reputation to the company. They are actually going down on losses but blame digitalisation and that they are trimming staff!

Ya

Something like that

Indirectly called retrenched in a more painful way

Wrongla. VSS is u get the package as mention above. example salary 5k, times 1.25 = 6250, you've work for 10 years, plus 3 months = 62500 + 6250 + 6250 + 6250 = You will get RM82k but you have to resign.

Nothing to do with potong gaji       

Already post above..
Still don't understand the concept of VSS..
Next time Google VSS 🙏

economy is turning worse in 2019

market very dull and down

now even shady business like night clubs and nombor ekor also very challenging, polis keep kacau

Astro Prima HD? Goodness me, they should upgrade Nick, Cartoon Network, Animax, E! and MTV to HD first instead.

Almost end December and no news on the UHD 4K channels....

Ever wonder how other satellite tv providers implement UHD broadcast?

Great move! Already one year lapsed yet not  a single challenger for astro? Astro may remain a winner,even the minister dare not take on astro the way he took TM and RTM to task!

Malaysia FTTH services still considered expensive compared to Thailand. See pic attached.

บาท = baht, Thai currency unit, ISP = TOT Public Company Limited, Thai state-owned telecommunications company.

Hopefully, MCMC can pressure more on ISP to bring down the current price.

anyone that receive the call on the "super pack lite"?

astro packs are most complicated and confusing. I had an experience, upgraded NJOI and took Family Extra HD and Variety.However I cannot access the HD channels in Variety pack. Their reason I am not subscribed to HD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To get HD in packs I must add on RM20 HD service!! Furious, I removed Variety they imposed RM10 penalty. Referred the matter to SKMM and the next day they waived the penalty! So do not fall for any Lite offers there could be hidden issues

sames goes to unifi. same packge different pricing

Not sure if it is special pack... but can't find it on Astro website.
For this package, they said no contract. I'm doubtful on that...

Guys the vendor for b.yond STB is caldero right?
No more Samsung & Philips 😏

Looks like it Found the picture 😬

Well, maybe they can resolve this situation sooner than never.
I couldn't wait for Astro to answer those MCMC complaints when it's time.

well from what I see..
Sports & Vernacular content is bringing the $$ 
Ansa needed to find niche market 

With upcoming TV3 and 8TV gonna be broadcasted in HD only after analog shutoff, will Astro also broadcasts those two in HD? 

It doesn't make any financial sense for Media Prima to keep MPEG2 feed or for Astro to downconvert those H264 HD feed to MPEG2 considering those bitrates are mere 4.2Mbps each.....

Perhaps astro can take this opportunity to promote its new HD decoder too?

We must wait Johan Ishak been kick out from Media Prima Television Networks and rebranding all 4 Media Prima channels are:

* TV3 - An 24 hour TV channel that broadcast Malay & Hindi content.
* NTV7 - Malaysia No. 1 first 24 hour English entertainment channel.
* 8TV - An mass Chinese entertainment channel.
* TV9 - An youth Chinese entertainment channel .

Adult channels?
If possible.. I'm the first person to subscribed 👍👍
But seriously... Not approved in Malaysia for sure... Truth hurts btw

Adult channel? Even kiss scene on fox and hbo also got people complain on Astro FB saying not appropriate. I replied to the person: you should watch Alhijrah, Oasis and Naura HD instead

Well even our national TV like rtm & media prima also like that..
Welcome to Malaysia heavy censorship 😂

Yes you're right.
But at the end of the day, who cares?
Is it illegal in the law that Astro at your business place does not show the small square box on bottom right corner, indicating that it is a residential subscription rather than business subscription?
Even if Astro found out, what will they do to you?

Company like Astro don't deserve to pay so much money. They monopoly the pay TV service for long enough already. But it's up to you if you want to go for the proper way by getting business subscription.

They will terminate the account..

That code is for Astro to identify those premium content being shown on each and every customer. Let say if an underground IPTV service provide Astro SuperSport channel, Astro want to track down the owner of the Astro account that provide this Astro channels illegally. So they demand every Astro boxes to display a special code like you mention, so that Astro can trace the account owner by that code, identify it, and then further action can be taken, such as mass terminating the accounts that provide Astro channels illegally.

No small box, means it's normal residential subscription, just like the Astro you have at home. You won't see a small box on your TV screen when watching Astro at home unless it's business subscription.

Like this:
The small box appear on bottom right corner, indicating that this is business subscription, also known as Astro for Business.



And the "code"

Hmm
Even those old b.yond box one have the small square box watermark... The remote is white colour one...

Anyhow the square box really disturbing people view.. Lucky nowadays one don't have it... Samsung or Caledro STB...

But JuneResources says have square box at bottom...

Take a picture to see how it looks like.
Is that Astro account is under your own name, or a company name? Are you very sure that you are using residential subscription? If not sure, contact Astro customer service to confirm.
