Feasibility study for satellite

[geovalin]

Local conglomerate Royal Group and Beijing-based China Great Wall Industry Corporation are set to conduct a feasibility study on the launch of a Cambodian-owned satellite, according to a senior official from the Telecom Regulator of Cambodia (TRC). TRC’s spokesman Im Vutha, told Khmer Times yesterday that Royal Group is now working with China Great Wall Industry Corporation.

 

“Once the feasibility study is completed, both companies will submit the results to the government for approval,” Mr Vutha said. “This is the first stage and if there is support from government, we could launch our own satellite next year. However, it is up to the feasibility study,” he added.

 

Mr Vutha said the government will then draw up plans to launch the satellite and Royal Group will manage the project with support from the Ministry of Post and Telecommunications. In 2011, Royal Blue Skies – a subsidiary of the Royal Group – received a concession from the ministry to launch Cambodia’s first satellite that would deliver TV and internet to Cambodia and also to other Asean nations.
