Agreement Reached to Continue NTDTV Satellite Broadcasts into Taiwan and Mainland China

(Clearwisdom.net) It looks like New Tang Dynasty Asia Pacific Television (NTDTV) will be able to renew its broadcast contract with Taiwanese satellite operator Chunghwa Telecom after all. The obstacles NTDTV has faced in renewing its contract have received significant attention and concern around the world. The loss of satellite privileges would have left NTDTV viewers in Taiwan and Mainland China without service. On June 22, 2011, at the Chingtao Hall in the Legislative Yuan, under the witness of Mr. Yeh Kuang-Shih, deputy minister of the Taiwan Ministry of Transportation and Communications, and KMT Central Policy Committee Chief Executive Mr. Lin Yi-Shih, NTDTV representative reached a written agreement to renew NTDTV's contract with Chunghwa Telecom president Chang Shaio-Tung. The signing of the contract will be completed on June 29. Chungwha has agreed to carry NTDTV programming on it's new ST-2 satellite, which launched in May 2011, and broadcasts into Taiwan and Mainland China.
