More likely that to happen...

Not easy to run FTA channels in Malaysia

But the word "funds" exist

The radio broadcast of Media Prima Audio is now in NSTP Bangsar. Hot FM is the first station, with others to join by phase.

So that's mean, radio amd television will completely moving out from sri pantas?

Not yet.

Other radio stations like Fly, Eight, Kool 101, Molek are still in Sri Pentas; as well as TV studio-based programming from 8TV (Living Delight) & TV9 (Tanyalah Ustaz, NLKO) that still uses old camera equipment (576i, 4:3).

They will eventually moving to NSTP Bangsar once they’re systematically ready.

Another delayed subtitles issue on TV3 Japanese drama.

I really hope that they will just use "hard subtitles mode" rather than the current "soft mode".

The future of Media Prima operations is clear : Balai Berita in Bangsar (main building) and NTV7 Glenmarie Studios in Shah Alam (backup/certain productions).

Recent Media Prima productions - like One in A Million or Famili Duo (both TV3) - they are clearly using Glenmarie as their production studio and base - note that on media release on Media Prima publications - they are using "TV3 Glenmarie, Shah Alam" for One in A Million - even though it is actually NTV7 studios (acquired in 2005 as part of their purchase of NTV7) as they are moving out completely from Sri Pentas in the future.

I heard the reason awesome tv ceased they own tv channel because they want to turn it into a "fully virtual platform".

It's expected actually

After they cease to broadcast from astro platform which is their majority viewership....

Lack of financial support....

I almost forgotten about that channel existence after they exit from Astro, and can you give me the source pls?

They official website or live streaming?

Metrovision all over again except going online now. Atleast Awesome TV survived longer than it .

End of an era - Swiss public broadcaster SRG SSR has ceased all FM transmissions earlier today (1/1/2025) (7:00 am Malaysian Time, Midnight Swiss time) in favour of digital listening methods like DAB+ and Internet streaming

Above video are the switch off process of FM transmissions - they cut the audio feed shortly after midnight, and the transmitters was shut down due to lack of audio carrier shortly after.

Private broadcasters in Switzerland will continue FM transmissions until 2026, at the latest (some private broadcasters there are against the forceful FM shutdown.)

The only other country that have shut down FM transmissions is Norway - however this applies mainly to the national stations - but in Norway's case, some local FM transmissions continued.

Still a long way for Malaysia. Don't see it happen in the next 10 years.

Buat malu only

Really got problem with the channels

We don't even have a digital terrestrial broadcast radio equivalent yet (internet streaming is excluded), so FM will keep running for a foreseeable future.

Are they any car that have the dab radio tuner (not in malaysia, but in any countries)
