By Vasseti IR
Dated 26 October 2011
Vasseti’s subsidiary completes the roll-out of its broadcast infrastructure at 22 government hospitals & medical facilities within the Klang Valley.
KUALA LUMPUR – OCTOBER 26, 2011 – Vasseti (UK) Plc (Frankfurt: 1VS) announced that its subsidiary, Medic Channel (M) Sdn Bhd has recently completed the deployment of digital broadcast infrastructure at twenty two government hospitals and medical facilities within the Klang Valley, where Kuala Lumpur is located.
MedikTV is a project to establish digital broadcast infrastructure and function as an official broadcast channel for the Malaysian Ministry of Health (“MOH”). The project will have its footprint in all government hospitals and medical facilities throughout Malaysia. The digital telecommunication network infrastructure required for the MedikTV project is provided by Vasseti’s other subsidiaries like V Telecoms and Vasseti Datatech.
Vasseti recently received a shot in the arm when Malaysian government selected MedikTV as a project of national interest and included it in the coveted Government Economic Transformation Project list.
“The government wants to promote greater awareness to the public especially in the area of general health, disease detection and prevention, medicine, medical facilities, health insurance, etc.”, says the executive director of MedikTV, Mr Nazrul Zaman Abdul Kadir. It appears that the best platform to deliver the message and information is at the premise of the hospitals and medical facilities, where patients and visitors are more focused and concerned about health and medical related issues. “We have spent thousands of hours creating and editing digital content for MedikTV and it feels really good now to finally see the project goes live,” he continued.
As the official broadcast channel for MOH, MedikTV is required to broadcast all official events of the Ministry, the Minister’s speeches, health and medical related programs, documentaries, awareness campaigns, etc. It also has its own mobile television crew of journalists and cameramen as well as a digital processing and editing studio.
Mr. Ranjeet Singh Sidhu, President and MD of Vasseti, added, “With the completion of phase one of the MedikTV project, Vasseti can now start collecting advertisement revenues from the advertisers.” It is interesting to note that in this very niche business, Vasseti has managed to capture recurring revenue stream from amongst the world’s biggest spenders in advertising – the medical and pharmaceutical companies.
MedikTV is now at the phase two of the deployment, where it is working to expand its coverage to all government hospitals, clinics, health departments and medical facilities throughout Malaysia.
