Broadcaster RTB has announced that DTT services in Brunei will begin in August 2008.
Brunei successfully trialed DVB-T transmissions in January 2006 and followed up by adopting the DVB-T standard in July the same year.
RTB plan to launch DTT services in August 2008, first from its Subok transmitter. They have already initiated programmes to inform the public of the DTT transition using road shows, dialogue sessions with retailers, information leaflets and by participating in exhibitions.
