iTV may be renamed TITV

(BangkokPost.com 1/Mar/07)

iTV might be renamed TITV, for Thai Independent Television.

This would indicate the station at least intends to maintain its role as an independent broadcasting station, permanent secretary to the Prime Minister's Office Chullayuth Hiranyawisit said Wednesday.

Mr Chullayuth refused to reveal the new management team of iTV but confirmed that all the team members would be representatives from the government sectors.

PM's Office Minister Dhipawadee Meksawan, meanwhile, confirmed that former president of Mcot Plc Mingkwan Sangsuwan, who resigned shortly after the Sept 19 coup to take responsibility for allowing the airing of a state of emergency declaration by ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, was not included in the list.

The new team would comprise of six to seven members and none of them were from private sector, Khunying Dhipawadee said.

From start to finish. But let's not spoil it, eh?

It's actually interesting that the new owners didn't make a provision for the underpaid fees in the due diligense.

What were they doing or did they and that is why they are letting it go?
