MTV's localisation extends to Thailand

MTV Asia has inked a joint venture deal with Thai music programming specialist Ten Music Television (TMT) to launch MTV Thailand.

The channel will air via United Broadcasting Corporation, following a renewal of a distribution deal with UBC concluded last November. The 24-hour channel will include locally produced shows with more Thai-language programming to be added to the schedule over the next year.

Programmes to premiere on the Thai channel include local pop video shows MTV Thailand Hitlist and upcoming MTV Top Ten, as well as Cruising MTV, a show dedicated to covering 'happening scenes' in the territory.

MTV Thailand extends MTV Asia's ongoing localisation initiatives across the continent, which so far has led to the creation of MTV Southeast Asia, MTV Philippines, MTV India, MTV China, MTV Korea and MTV Mandarin.
