Voice TV to lay off 127 employees

 

 

Voice TV Company, the operator of digital television station Voice TV, will lay of 127 employees as part of its structural change and adjustment of its programming.

 

Mekin Petchplai, chief executive officer of Voice TV, said in a statement released today (Dec 22) that from Jan 1 next year the company will undergo a structural change, adjust its television programmes and develop the presentation of programmes on all online platforms to suit with the current situation surrounding the digital TV industry and to be in line with the company’s business plan for the year 2018.

 

Operating under the political limitations for nearly four years, Voice TV has often been affected by the state control of information.  But, since the company has tried to balance between freedom of information and political limitations, it has managed to produce quality work and offer a choice for viewers who call for television programmes with constructive contents, all-round information and analyses aimed at creating progressive thinking in Thai society, he said.
