KUALA LUMPUR: Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil praised Media Prima Bhd for successfully transitioning almost all its operations to Balai Berita in a short time.
Fahmi, who spent nearly two hours visiting the Media Prima Television Networks (MPTN) studios today, congratulated the management for the smooth transition.
"I am truly excited and honestly amazed by Media Prima's achievement in relocating almost its entire operation in such a short time," he said.
"Since Oct 21, Media Prima has been operating almost entirely from Balai Berita here in Jalan Riong.
"I see no major issues. We understand that places like Balai Berita are restricted areas as it is where broadcasting stations operate.
"I am genuinely impressed overall, and congratulations to the team."
During his visit, Fahmi toured the studios for news broadcasts on TV3, TV9, DidikTV and 8TV. He also visited the TV3 newsroom.
MPTN transitioned from Sri Pentas to Balai Berita after three decades, becoming a complete media house under Media Prima and sharing a roof with the 'New Straits Times', 'Berita Harian' and 'Harian Metro'.
