[Myanmar] Eleven Aims To Set Up Tv Station, Daily Paper


Recommended Posts

Posted

The Eleven Media Group has applied for licenses to open Burma’s first privately owned television news station and daily newspaper, according to a report by Mizzima. Than Htut Aung, the company’s CEO and chairman, said he hopes to begin publication of a daily newspaper even before a new media law is approved, which could be as soon as this month. Although Burma has numerous privately owned weekly news journals, only state-run newspapers are currently permitted to publish on a daily basis. The government has only recently begun to allow private, entertainment-based TV channels.
