Ansat Broadcast Sdn Bhd and the Indonesian multinational conglomerate MNC Group have collaboratively launched OK Vision, a television and content distribution service catering to subscribers in Malaysia.
NST reports that OK Vision provides a range of content across its lineup of at least 35 channels through Direct-to-Home (DTH) services. This allows Malaysian viewers to access the content via PT MNC Digital Entertainment using OK1000 devices connected to KU-Band Satellite antennas.
Tan Sri Datuk Seri Vincent Tan Chee Yioun, a major shareholder of U Telemedia and co-owner of Ansat Broadcast, expresses confidence in the potential and prospects of OK Vision through this collaboration.
He believes that the service, offering a diverse and superior content selection, is well-positioned to capture a share in the local digital media and entertainment market.
MNC Group’s executive chairman, Hary Tanoesoedibjo, emphasises the commitment to elevate content distribution, acknowledging Ansat Broadcast’s expertise and innovation as valuable assets aligning seamlessly with their vision.
The goal is to redefine the entertainment landscape, providing unparalleled experiences to audiences in Malaysia and Indonesia.
The launch event was attended by Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil and Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) chairman Tan Sri Mohamad Salim Fateh.
Fahmi highlights the integral role of digital media platforms in Malaysia’s economy, contributing to revenue generation, employment, innovation, and global competitiveness.
He anticipates further growth in the economic impact of digital media, shaping Malaysia’s position in the global digital economy.
Fahmi notes the increasing popularity of digital streaming services and expects significant local and international investments in technology and infrastructure within the Malaysian market.
Some channels such as TV3, 8TV, CNA, Euronews, Arirang, and more are free to view. But, if you want to watch more content, you can sign up for the OK Pek which costs RM20 per month.
