Myanmar’s TV sector is rapidly expanding as the country moves toward a more liberalised economy. The Myanmar Government has issued new domestic free-to-air (FTA) digital TV programme service licences to five ‘channel providers’ to broadcast digital FTA TV under the umbrella of the state-owned broadcaster Myanmar Radio and Television (MRTV). The new licences will increase programme choice and diversity for Myanmar viewers, create more employment opportunities for Myanmar’s creative industries and bring additional investments into local programme production.
