11/7/2008 -- TOKYO, Japan: The New Media Group, KK (“TNMG”) parent company of IPTV platform World On-Demand, has announced that it has reached a carriage deal for Vision Asia, the first community media TV channel devoted to the lives and events of Middle Asian communities living across East Asia.

“I think that this is the start of something big,” said Kamal Adhikari, Director of NewITV and Producer of Vision Asia. “People from the Middle Asia communities in Australia want to see what their counterparts are up to in the U.S., and their American counterparts want to see what their community is doing in Japan – and they want to see it on TV. But like anything else, its got to be produced well and be relevant or else people won`t watch it. This channel is timely, interesting, relevant and shall be marketed aggressively.”
Targeted launch date is December 1st, 2008. All global viewers shall be able to watch free of charge throughout December.
