Media news daily: DTTB (digital TV) to be tested first in East Coast Peninsular

According to Bernama via New Straits Times, the Communication and Multimedia Minister had said in Kemaman on 24.12.2013 that the digital TV infrastructure development projects will start in mid-2014. He said it would be tested first in the east coast (Peninsular Malaysia) states of Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang. The minister said the reason why is to provide an opportunity for places with less (population) density to experience digital broadcasts before expanding to places with high density. The digital TV infrastructure development would incur a cost of about RM 1 billion and expected to be completed by 2017 before the government decides to end analogue TV broadcasts services by 2020.
