Filipino Overseas: Reaching Out Your Family and Friends in the Philippines Through DTH Satellite TV

Attention all Filipinos working or living abroad, or any citizen with family and friends living in the Philippines. They may get in touch with you wherever you are through satellite TV direct-to-home (DTH). All you need to do now is to prepare your 10-15 minute home-made video and send it to a server via the Internet. The IP address of the server where you can upload your video will be provided to you immediately once the launching of the new DTH business in the Philippines is finally done.

To make sure that your family in the Philippines would be able to see your video, all they need to do is to buy the satellite receiving unit [Satellite Dish + Integrated Receiver Decoder (IRD)] for just 4,500 to 5,500 pesos and pay the installation fee which cost them 800 to 1,500 pesos depending on the length of the cable.

Having the DTH satellite receiving unit installed at home, they will also enjoy watching 10 local TV channels and five international TV channels plus some HD channels for FREE - no monthly subscriptions. Initially, that's the number of channels that they can watch plus your video that you can send at least twice a month.

As the time goes by, the number of the TV channels that they can watch will increase up to 48 to 50 TV channels.

So, if you are interested and want to know more about it, please kindly leave your comment below or simply send your inquiries to this e-mail address: judaiz12@yahoo.com.

About your video, you must understand and agree that the company that will bring it up (uplink) to its satellite has ultimate editorial control all over it. The company may edit, remove or exercise its discretion not to broadcast your video for legal, editorial or operational reasons including if the company considers it to be:

a. defamatory, or otherwise unlawful or that it violates laws regarding harassment, discrimination, racial vilification, privacy or contempt; b. intentionally false or misleading; c. an infringement of intellectual property rights including copyright; d. abusive, offensive or obscene; e. inappropriate, off topic, repetitive or vexatious.

Looking for Distributors of Direct-to-Home (DTH) Satellite TV Receiving Units in the Philippines

Attention Everyone!

A satellite owner and operator, and telecommunication service provider based in Thailand in partnership with one of the biggest telecommunication providers in the Philippines is looking for distributors for its Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite TV receiving sets in the Philippines. It will launch its DTH satellite TV (DSTV), or simply DTV in the country two to three months from now.

Unlike the existing DTH operator in the country, this company will initially carry eight to 10 local TV channels and five international channels plus some HD channels. In the long run, the number of channels will increase every now and then.

On the positive side, the company will not ask for a monthly subscription from its subscribers. Subscribers in this sense are those who bought its DTV units and install them in their houses. The cost of the DTV equipments is very competitive. At the same price with the existing competitors, you will still manage to have a profit of 30 to 50 %, plus the installation cost (800 to 1,500 pesos) which is separate from the cost of the said DTV equipments or DTV receiving units.

If you are interested, please leave your comment below or send your message of interest to this e-mail address: judaiz12@yahoo.com

Thank you very much.

Thaicom Satellites (Thaicom 7 and Thaicom 8) for Fiji and Nearby Island Countries

Hello Sir,

Thank you very much for your inquiries.

Please see footprints of Thaicom 7 satellite below.

For Thaicom 4 (IPStar 1 - Broadband satellite), please kindly explore the link below for more details of the information for its applications.

http://www.thaicom.net/Publication/Press%20Kit%20Leaflet/English%20Version/product-Eng_edit.pdf

IPStar 1 is a Ku-Band/Ka-Band satellite for broadband applications as you can see details at the above link.

God willing, very soon after Thaicom 7 is launched, Thaicom 8 (IPStar 2) will follow and Fiji would be one of the possible island countries that would be covered with its service spot beams if there's a promising demand there. So, better to explore the details of Thaicom 4 (IPStar 1), so if you find it interesting , then you may recommend IPStar 2 (same as IPStar 1) to your client so the company (Thaicom) may consider putting spot beams in Fiji when it is launched in the near future.

Thaicom 7 satellite is a C-Band satellite which capacity is very useful and fitting for telecommunications and broadcast services in the said island country.

The price of bandwidth per MHz/Month is very cheap, and even much cheaper if you reserve it ahead of its launching.

The Advantages of Securing Your Satellite Capacity Need Ahead of Time

Some of the potential clients have opted to delay their buying of their future satellite capacity needs for the two obvious reasons: One is, they knew for sure that many satellite operators and service providers, such as Thaicom PLC, Singtel, SES, etc., would be launching next year (2013), which dates are spread into different quarters (Q1: SES-6, SES-8, ASTRA 2E; Q2: THAICOM 6, ST-3, Q3 and Q4 for others. Second is, they are expecting that the more satellite launchings, the more capacity would be available and the cheaper the price would become. Though this idea is true, however, I am not so sure whether they all have the full information and the details of each of the satellites to be launched such as, frequency bands: Ku, Ka, C (standard C or Extended C), orbital slot locations, launchers, etc. To avoid any possible surprises, their capacity needs should be matched with the future available and appropriate capacity. So, if the need is a Standard C-Band and the coverage would be in Southeast Asia and Africa, then my advice is to deal with Thaicom PLC for its Thaicom 6 satellite. Making a deal with Thaicom PLC within this year will give its potential clients such benefits as, first priority to securing of the capacity, cheaper, flexible and negotiable price. So, hurry now to secure yours, while available slots are still on pre-sale. Good luck! Satellite Service Adviser

Breakeven Point is About to be Reached for Thaicom 6

God allows, Thaicom PLC would be adding more capacity when Thaicom 6 is launched in the middle of 2013. TV channels carried on its Thaicom 5 satellite platform has reached to 465 from 427 during the first half of 2012.

Due to failures of some satellite launches, the demand for the conventional satellite capacity remains very solid. With around nine months more to go upon launch, its pre-launch sales campaign activities looks very well to meeting its management's goal of 30% pre-launch sales result. Currently, it has achieved 18% (six out 33 transponders) which are officially sold to Grammy, PSI and RS. Sales people are in negotiations with lots of foreign potential clients for Thaicom 6.

Thaicom 7 satellite launching in 2014 is still well on its schedule.

Good luck!
