Competitor For ASTRO?

    ASTRO  has been the largest pay television provider in Malaysia. Its very rare to see houses without ASTRO now days. NOW there is a new player in a cable television market called ABN (Asian Broadcast Network). ABN set to launch its services somewhere in June and July 2012. Its good to have a competitor  for this services , at least ASTRO will reduce their package price. Correct?

ABN CEO
    ABN is something like those days analogue cable TV (MEGA TV-appears once upon a time and then disappear). This daring digital cable TV is set to provide 50-60 channels upon launching and offering at cheaper price at start. This will be good news for those who do not have ASTRO at home. They are setting up their centre at Puchong Gateway,  next to Seri Kembangan toll and vacancies are available at ABN for many positions currently.
   According to Business Times, ABN choose Fibrecom and Tenaga Nasional as its back haul fibre optic partner and Fibrecom  51% shares owns by Telekom Malaysia. Since ABN is using fibre optics as their cable, I'm not very sure whether the UNIFI fibre optic cable can be used with it? For those who have UNIFI, maybe there is a benefit on that. Since ABN can offer more than 2000 channels, what for ASTRO?

    The new CEO, Sreedhar Subramaniam is bringing this project towards frontier as how Tan Sri Tony Fernandez did for Air Asia. Let's see..... ALL THE  BEST ABN !!!
