KBS to Provide for Free Mobile Units to Vietnam, Cambodia

Published on 2011/10/12 | Source

KBS will provide Vietnam and Cambodia's public broadcasters with mobile broadcasting vehicles next year as the Korean network is set to switch from analogue to digital broadcasting at the end of 2012.

The mobile units were first used by KBS in 1996 and were recently replaced with vehicles that have equipment for high-definition digital broadcasts.

Vietnam and Cambodia are countries that are in great need of mobile analogue broadcasting units given that it would take significant time for the two countries to upgrade from analogue to digital.

KBS also plans to send technicians when providing the vehicles to teach local technicians advanced broadcasting techniques and ways to manage the mobile units.
