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!

Because the business is very expensive. Gobind now only realized that he cannot go ask payTV to reduce price like telcos or internet service provider. Pay TV business is expensive in all stages, that's why no new reliable player. Astro is natural monopoly and not because of legislation or anything.. its just that no other company can afford to pay for content or infrastructure cost, market is limited. (not huge as Indonesia or Thai or India) we really need to understand this.

The only alternative is internet service like netflix,iflix and viu. but even those service, once they expand enough and started need to have surplus cash movement, price will be increase, content will be slim down or maybe subscription based on tiers will be introduced. Capitalism always win and correct itself.

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

ΰΈšΰΈ²ΰΈ— = 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.

I also experienced delay while watching AFF Cup on Fox Sports (Fox feed delayed by few seconds compared to RTM feed).

I think Fox feed on Astro are delayed because Astro injected their own ads. I remember someone once said Fox feed on Unifi TV aren't delayed compared to Astro.

Because there is no famous competitors in Malaysia, of course can sell expensive what they want.
Plus government does not enforce standardize the reduce pricing broadcast just like fiber/internet service provider.

Saw the fiber + astro iptv, YES the price should be reduce. However, seems like only fiber pricing reduce, but same price as previously of iptv.

Don't expect too much of government reduce price broadcast. If really do, Gobind had done already.

The CEO designate of Astro, Henry Tan said the bundled proposition will allow subscribers to enjoy their favourite shows on demand via set top boxes as well as through connected devices such as mobile phones and tablets.

Jasin is the pilot project, targeting about 1,100 homes in an area where Astro has a strong 92% household penetration comprising Astro and NJOI customers.

Astro is offering 50 Mbps and 100 Mbps broadband services at a special price of RM 99 and RM 129 respectively from  Feb 1.

This fee will include Astro’s Family Pack content which has more than 40 channels, including Astro Ria, Astro Prima, Astro Arena, Astro Awani, Astro AEC, Astro Xiao Tai Yang, NatGeo WILD, and FOXlife, among others.

rm129 100mbps with these channels will give Unifi a run for the money.

but doesn't say if it will ride on unifi infra like maxis or some other cable, satellite?
