As the Commission recognized in the Notice, the best way to help the largest number of AM stations to quickly and efficiently improve their service is to open such an AM-only window. Any other approach will make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, for AM stations, to obtain the translators they urgently need to remain competitive and provide our communities with the service they deserve.

    MEDIA, COMMUNICATIONS AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY Media, Communications and Information Technology Media, Communications and Information Technology Macao enjoys freedom of the press, freedom of speech and freedom of publishing. Despite being relatively small, it has a sophisticated and well-developed media industry. The Government strives to enhance the transparency of its administration and facilitate communication and dialogue with the media. This enables government messages to be delivered to the public promptly and accurately, and provides a wide range of information via the media. Furthermore, the Government expects the media to act as a watchdog, continually prompting every government department to improve its work and provide better-quality services to the community. Macao’s laws protect the rights of journalists to gather and receive news and information, and to report it, ensuring their journalistic independence. Mass Media Electronic Media Macao has one free-to-air TV station, two radio stations and one cable TV station, as well as three locally based satellite TV stations. Teledifusao de Macau (Macau Broadcasting Company, TDM) began providing a public broadcasting service in February 1988. Digital broadcasting commenced in 2008. Currently, both analogue broadcasting and digital broadcasting are available. The 12 digital channels include the two round-the-clock channels (Chinese and Portuguese), sports, information, high definition (HD), TDM Entertainment, CCTV-13, CCTV-1, CGTN, CGTN Documentary, Fujian TV Station Haixia Satellite Channel and Hunan TV World. Radio Macau, a subsidiary of TDM, and the privately owned Radio Vila-Verde (Green Village) are Macao’s two radio stations. Both broadcast 24 hours a day. Macau Cable TV has been broadcasting since July 2000, and offers 97 channels (75 basic channels, 15 premium channels, five test channels, and two dedicated hotel channels); each is aired 24 hours per day.
