Pasifika TV launched in PNG

Papua New Guineans will continue to enjoy the many interesting television programs from New Zealand in the new channel Pasifika TV made possible through the Pacific Broadcasting initiative.

According to the NZ High Commissioner to Papua New Guinea Mr. Tony Fautua the initiative has brought pacific content as well to the people in the region with the aim to inform and educate and entertain, apart from sports, news and current affairs.

The Initiative was announced by the NZ prime minister last year and since then it continues to improve program content for viewers.

“The New Zealand Government is proud to support this initiative and we are grateful to the New Zealand and international content providers for their generosity in providing the content at no cost to the Pacific,” Fautua said.

Also as part of this initiative, there will be a training program for local technicians such as camera operators, vision switchers and stidio technicians to help them build skills across the region.

Pasifika TV content is available on local free to air TV stations, NBC, EM TV, TVWAN and Click TV.
