Ramadan HD is a temporary Malay HD channel that is available to all Astro customers for free (except Njoi customers) from 12 May 2018 onwards, specially showing on Ramadan specials programmes (which also includes Islamic religious teachings).

Once Ramadan month is over, the channel will rename into "Raya HD" from 14 June till 15 July 2018.

The channel shows new premium programmes (as well as some repeated shows) from telemovie, documentary, drama series, travelogue, talk shows, etc.

After the date, the channel will no longer available.

I believe that RTM only gotten free to air(via airwaves) rights. Hence FTA channels via IPTV (IPTV rights) and/or Satellite TV rights are not included. This is the same case as in Taiwan .... The FTA chs running on IPTV have to block certain animation programs as the rights were not obtained by the Taiwan FTA player. So, the Taiwan IPTV provider will playback a replacement program during the time slot of the animation program and run a stroller informing no rights obtained by the FTA channel. Should be something like that.... Fyi.

Starhub saved quite a lot by dropping the Discovey suite of chs..... So it's another kind of money saving for them

The flip side is comments from SH FB users is that they are switching over to Singtel which still has Discovery, Eve, DSC Science, DMAX etc...... But ST does not have AFC, Food Network N HGTV.... Have to see how it plays out soon
