SINGAPORE, September 2: NBC Universal Global Networks will launch its package of four Asian channels—SCI FI, Universal Channel, Hallmark Channel and KidsCo—in Cambodia beginning September 9 on Star Digital TV.
This makes Cambodia the second country in the Asia-Pacific region to carry all four channels after Singapore and the third country to launch channels this year. All four will be available on Star Digital TV, while SCI FI and Universal Channel will join Hallmark Channel on Phnom Penh Municipal Cable & Optical TV sometime in October.
“We are pleased with the take-up of our portfolio of channel brands in an exciting market like Cambodia,” said Raymund Miranda, the managing director of NBC Universal Global Networks for Asia Pacific.
Paul Robinson, the managing director of KidsCo, added, “We are delighted to be launching KidsCo into the Cambodian market. With a lineup of quality, learning-based and educational programming, parents recognize that KidsCo is a safe and responsible environment for children. We are sure that children and families in Cambodia will embrace the fun world of KidsCo.”
This is the seventh Asian market for KidsCo since its launch early this year. Cambodia is the fourth country in Asia Pacific to launch SCI FI and the second country for Universal Channel this year, while Hallmark Channel is currently available in 20 countries throughout the region.
