28 May-10 june C NTENT 2018 www.contentasia.tv l www.contentasiasummit.com Discovery takes StarHub carriage row to Singapore viewers 11 channels in danger as renewal talks deadlock, new StarHub head Peter K could arrive on 9 July to a smouldering TV mess Discovery took its carriage renewal negotiations public this morning in an aggressive campaign designed to whip up public support for its channels in Sin- gapore – and (clearly) to pressure local platform StarHub into softening its current stand against the renewal of an 11-chan- nel bundle. As of today, seven Discovery channels are scheduled to go dark on 30 June, with the newly acquired four-channel Scripps bouquet headed into the abyss at the end of August. Discovery says it has already been for- mally notified by StarHub that its channels are not being renewed. In a response this morning, StarHub didn’t mention any formal notice, saying only that “we are in renewal negotia- tions... and we are doing everything pos- sible to arrive at a deal which would allow Discovery and StarHub to continue our partnership while offering our customers the same content at a reasonable price”. StarHub isn’t coming into this public fight with no firepower, saying it is acquiring fresh content to replace Discovery “in the event that negotiations prove unsuc- cessful”. Several new channels are in the works “to ensure our customers will continue to enjoy access to a good range of educa- tion and lifestyle channels,” StarHub says.

Astro TV in Holland: Spirituality, Power and Gender
Studia Religiologica 45 (2) 2012, s. 93–108 doi 10.4467/20844077SR.12.007.0823 Astro TV in Holland: Spirituality, Power and Gender Frans Jespers Radboud University Generally speaking, it is easier for a woman to feel and be in her body, so she is naturally closer to Being and potentially closer to enlightenment than a man. (Eckhart Tolle)1 Abstract In the Netherlands a two-hour spiritual television show called Astro TV is broadcast daily on a com- mercial channel. I analyse the power and gender relations in and underlying this programme on the basis of my anthropological observations with reference to the theories of Bourdieu, Wood, Woodhead and others. In the show clients can call in and have a short consultation with a “spiritual specialist”, usually a psychic. On the surface such shows are very much like the presentations that psychics held at paranormal fairs in the 1990s. Both in the television show and in real consultations the psychics do dominate somewhat because of their claim to channel special signs or messages from “beyond” – they act like magicians. However, clients can reject the message or debate its meaning. Backstage a large and obscure pool of psychics, alternative healers and counsellors, pub- lishers and businesspeople use divination programmes and other mass media presentations to sup- ply a large public with holistic spirituality. On this second level real power is exerted more or less anonymously and commercially. Nevertheless, the divination practice appears to offer psychologi- cal support to the mainly working-class women who participate in it. Besides, both clients and psychics enjoy such practices, for instance as entertainment. -
Malaysia Media TV Digitization in Full Swing
February 16, 2016 Malaysia Media NEUTRAL [Unchanged] TV digitization in full swing Analysts Update on TV digitization – Maintain BUY on MPR We organized a site visit to MYTV Broadcasting’s (MYTV) Digital Yin Shao Yang Multimedia Broadcasting Hub. With 85% of the population currently (603) 2297 8916 covered by the digital terrestrial TV broadcasting (DTTB) platform, we [email protected] opine that the TV digitization process is in full swing. More importantly, Jade Tam the rate of new FTA TV channels launched will now be gradual and the (603) 2297 8687 impasse over the annual rental fees that MYTV intends to charge FTA TV [email protected] channels may be resolved soon. Maintain BUY on MPR, HOLD on ASTRO. TV digitization has begun in earnest Broadcasting 85% of the population has been covered by the DTTB platform since Jan 2016. MYTV also currently has the capacity to launch 30 FTA TV channels. 98% of the population will be covered by the DTTB platform by 2017 but to be fair, it requires a lot more infrastructure and effort than covering 85% of the population. Analogue switch off (ASO) date has been set for Jun 2018 at latest and it will still be within the target ASO date for all ASEAN countries to migrate to the DTTB platform by 2018. All in all, we opine that the TV digitization process is in full swing. Malaysia Fears over competition and rental fees overblown? MYTV initially targeted to upgrade its capacity to launch 80 FTA TV channels by 2019. Currently, MYTV will still upgrade its capacity to launch 80 FTA TV channels but gradually over a longer period. -

Isa*, Wan Amizah Wan Mahmud, Wan Idros Wan Sulaiman, Muhammad Adnan Pitchan Centre for Research in Media & Communication (MENTION), Faculty of Social Sciences & Humanities, UniversitiKebangsaan Malaysia, Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia *[email protected] ABSTRACT Netflix and several global OTT media providers entered into Malaysian market since way back in 2016. The prevalence of content accessed through global OTT media platforms has made film and drama series a genre broadcast through OTT media platforms among Malaysian audiences. The tremendous response among local viewers proposes the question, why OTT streaming media is so famous? Hence, this article intended to provide a better and comprehensive understanding of streaming media among Malaysian audiences. This study employed the theory of uses and gratification to explain the audience’s motives for using streaming media to achieve gratification. This study aimed to identify OTT streaming media’s overall audience profile and compare the viewing trends of OTT media content based on demographic factors, namely gender, age, race, income, education, and marital status. The data were collected through surveys utilizing a combination of stratified and systematic sampling. A sum of 606 respondents in the Klang Valley participated in this research. This analysis was descriptive by explaining the trends and patterns regarding why OTT streaming media is a favourite of the Malaysian community. The study examined data descriptively using SPSS version 23. -

The Survival of Malaysia's National Television Within a Changing
The Innovation Journal: The Public Sector Innovation Journal, Vol. 16(3), 2011, article 2. The Survival of Malaysia’s National Television Within a Changing Mediascape Fuziah Kartini Hassan Basri Abdul Latiff Ahmad Emma Mirza Wati Mohamad Arina Anis Azlan Hasrul Hashim School of Media and Communication Studies Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia 43600. Bangi Selangor MALAYSIA The Innovation Journal: The Public Sector Innovation Journal, Vol. 16(3), 2011, article 2. The Survival of Malaysia’s National Television Within a Changing Mediascape Fuziah Kartini Hassan Basri, Abdul Latiff Ahmad, Emma Mirza Wati Mohamad, Arina Anis Azlan and Hasrul Hashim ABSTRACT National television is the term used to describe television broadcasting owned and maintained for the public by the national government, and usually aimed at educational, informational and cultural programming. By this definition, Radio Televisyen Malaysia’s TV1 is the national television in Malaysia and until 1984 was the only television broadcast offered to Malaysians. With the privatization policy, new and private stations were established, and RTM eventually faced competition. The advent of direct satellite broadcasting saw another development in the country—the establishment of Astro in 1998. The direct-to-user satellite broadcaster currently carries over 100 channels, including 8 HD channels, thus creating many more choices for viewers. More importantly, Astro carries the global media directly into our homes. International offerings such as CNN, BBC, CCTV, HBO, MTV, FOX, ESPN, Star Sports, and Star World are now within the push of a button for most Malaysians. Astro is a success story, but there were also a few failed attempts along the way such as MetroVision, MegaTV and MiTV. -
