More benefits to come
More 1Malaysia products and services on the cards
Prime
Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak and Rahimah Majid, 55, watching a
programme on Astro’s new free satellite TV service at her home in
Perumahan Rakyat Cochrane Perkasa, Cheras, Kuala, Lumpur, yesterday.
Najib launched NJOI, which is offered free to residents there. NJOI
requires users to pay a one-off payment for a decoder that offers 18
television and 19 radio channels. There is no monthly subscription. Pic

No doubt, there are more free TV and radio channels now compared to the days when Astro was not around but then again, the viewers have to bear with all the advertisements in between a show. Astro is a 'for-profit' entity - hence it will still make money from ads though free service for us. Sadly, these NJOI users who are low-income earners still have to pay a one-off payment for a decoder. So-called free lah!
