Nearly 70% of all households in Vietnam will have pay TV, as the prime minister of the country, Nguyen Tan Dung has approved planning on radio and television wave transmission and broadcasting up till 2020.
The plans which were approved recently aim to increase the reach of pay TV as well as develop the market already existing in place. Currently the country offers pay TV through cable television, DTT, digital satellite television and IPTV. The plans also stipulate that by 2015, there will be 80 TV channels out of which 50 will be pay for view channels.
As of now the state wants to have at least 40% of the population opting for pay TV by 2015 and then increase that reach to 70% by 2020. The population is being encouraged to leave behind terrestrial TV services because channels will be broadcast on a different plan from 2020.
