BROADCASTING Governing Body (BGB) of the Ministry of Information held its meeting 1/2020 at the meeting hall of Myanmar Radio  and  TV  in  Yangon yesterday morning.

At the BGB’s first meeting in 2020, Deputy Minister for  Information  U  Aung  Hla  Tun  in  his  capacity  as  its  chairman gave a speech, saying that some of the matters need face-to-face discussions and collaboration among the stakeholders as media is no more an exclusive industry in the democracy era. The facilitation of the industry depends on collective efforts towards a platform where inclusive survival is possible.

It is common knowledge that many cases are beyond the reach of the Information Ministry.  As regards the requirements, the Deputy Minister invited open discussions.

Vice  Chair  of  the  body  Permanent Secretary U Myo Myint Maung explained functions  of  the  MOI,  financial  matters, amendment of contracts, challenges faced in the digitalization of TV programs, and transformation from SD to HD of MRTV channels.

Officials of MRTV presented matters relating to broadcasting and progress in realizing the meeting minutes of meeting 5/2019.
