Channel 9 (Malaysia)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Channel 9 was a Malaysian private-owned television station which started operations from September 9, 2003 to February 1, 2005. The station halted its transmission due to intense competition from other local free-to-air television stations and efforts to restructure its debts.
On June 10, 2005, Malaysia's largest media coorporation Media Prima Berhad announced its acquisition of 98% equity stake in Ch-9 Media Sdn Bhd, completing the company's ownership of all free-to-air television stations in Malaysia. The new owner Media Prima Berhad later renamed the station to TV9 and transmission officially resumed on April 22, 2006.
