Edited: Sorry to misunderstanding. Is it means that A+E network buy over the Astro Overseas's then no more this Astro Overseas Limited already?
Not very understand is it merger or not..

For your info, A+E is just one of the firm that had been previously owned by Astro Overseas, however, Astro Overseas still owns some part of firms, like Fetch TV in Australia, Celestial Tigers, Goal TV Asia Ltd and more.

huhuhuh...

later I heard.. TV Pendidikan would make comeback.. Most likely on astro platform too since schools have astro

No need tv pendidikan la. How many students actually watch tv nowadays?

well very few watch TV nowadays...

but U & Me not Minister of Education... So the plan might proceed or just like your typical U turn policy after getting backlash from public

Students are glued to smartphones. Better develop app instead of tv channel.

True.. Apps much better..
At least its would give students something positive...

I kinda feel weird that astro won't launch local channels in HD, but keep bring trashy channel like ch.110.

Also, all Media Prima channels has 1080p stream on Tonton.

Cost cutting measures...
And also bad advisor...
Must sack them first.. Out of touch with the people preference...

I guess sports lite pack don't have, right?

expect to see more companies jumping in the bandwagon
next year gonna be shit year for most industries due to recession
yet some people think as if yelling bantah icerd can place food on their table, tongkat mindset never realized


to add:

they do have embarked on a journey towards digital transformation
by slowly getting rid of traditional DTH platform, into modernized digital technology company, this VSS might very well targeted towards these DTH platform people more. Ironically, revenues still coming from subscribers money, while digital products are losing money; so they can't chop off the DTH just yet

not many people actually know that Astro has its own ewallet and payment gateway, it has miserably low adoption in the market, due to lack of awareness of the products, what is the use of ewallet if all it ever does is just to pay astro bills?? Seriously, even TnG ewallet is catching up very fast

it is very hard to ride on the digital transformation bandwagon, if the mindset of most top managements still resides in 80s-90s era, those old man with ego bigger than their balls

Bad time for media. Media Prima, utusan, malay mail. Last year Star also. and now the strongest media in Malaysia is offering VSS as well.

Bad sign for the industry. We can say padan muka and all, but a collapse of an industry is always bad for country and will come bite us back in the ass
