Malaysia's Bernama TV to launch first internet news channel in SEA
Bernama TV will launch Southeast Asia’s first live-feed Internet news channel on Sept 3 to cater to the growing demands of a more IT-savvy and news-hungry populace.
Expected to be launched by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, the Internet news feed would only be between two to three minutes delay in comparison to the Bernama TV news on Astro Channel 502.
According to Bernama Chairman Datuk Seri Panglima Mohd Annuar Zaini, the news agency’s latest product expansion is to meet and cater to the greater demand by Malaysians in the country as well as abroad, especially among the youth. “The youth of today are very IT savvy and they want news as soon as possible.
