Media Prima offers help to Maldives Rose Major 21-04-2009 A delegation from Malaysia’s major broadcaster Media Prima will by now be back home after a three-day visit to the Republic of Maldives, not for the suntan but for talks on how Media Prima may be able to help the island state develop its media and broadcast industries. Among the areas that the delegation was exploring were training for local personnel as well as Media Prima sharing expertise in the field of broadcasting, especially in the areas of management, financing, marketing, productions and technical fields. Media Prima’s delegation was led by chairman Dato’ Abdul Mutalib Razak and included a marketeer, a journalist/presenter and a cameraman. Before the trip, Dato’ Mutalib said: “The invitation by the Republic of Maldives is testimony to the growing reputation of MPB within the regional broadcast industry, particularly the excellent work in building our TV Networks to be the leading media platform in Malaysia. The working visit is very much in line with our regional expansion strategies and will allow us to explore opportunities for collaboration,” he added. A nation of coral atolls in the Indian Ocean, the Maldives has only one television station – Television Maldives – which is state-run. There are some 10,000 TV homes. ------------------------------------ -- INFORMATION OVERLOAD? Get all ZESTMedia mails sent out in a span of 24 hours in a single mail.
