INTRODUCTION

Lanka or Afghanistan and Laos. But they have some common roots and
experience common technicaldevelopments.

The catalogues of most of the archives are keptin lists, books or index cards.
Many of the stations have either partly or fullychanged their programme production to digitaland computer based systems.
The newsrooms in most of the stations usecomputers for news access (Internet) and news

REPLACEMENT.
INTEGRATED ASSET MANAGEMENT. TAPELESS ACQUISITION
In the face of today's competitive,
budget, and deadline pressures, even
developing broadcasters do not have
the time or resources to fill the holesin their production workflow.
Digital systems must be integrated
with legacy systems and software.
Most of the DBs able to make the transition to digitalproduction smoothly .( Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, etc.)

According to ASIA PACIFICMULTICHANNEL MARKETS ,cable
could lose its grip on the region in the
next ten years, as DTH and IPTV
services capture market share. IPTVplatforms operated by Telco's over DSL
or fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) networks
are forecast to develop even in the
developing countries.
All countries have IP telephony and VoIPin some manner and the market is
growingOctober 1, 2008Sri Lanka Joins WorldIPTV Club- uses Optibase H.264

ISSUES IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
The Asia-Pacific region offers hugepotential, but the regulatory environmentis restricting development.
Countries do not have the sufficientconnectivity infrastructure to supportstreaming video over IP.

HD RADIO
Digital Radio Transmission Workshop andField Measurements in MW & FM Band
took place from 10-13 February in

DRIVING FORCES TOWARDS NEW ERA
Telecommunications technologies are changing
rapidly.
The quality of the pictures and sound available is
increasing. The number of available programs is multiplying.
New delivery mechanisms are appearing every day.
Viewers are becoming used to interactivity. Consumers can now decide where, when and what
they want to see or hear; not the broadcasters.

IMPORTANT FACTS
Viewers don't 'buy' brands or technology -they 'buy' content. Technology is simplythe gateway to deliver entertainment
services and programming. Piracy-the unlicensed use, reproduction,
sale, or distribution of copyrighted
material-is a plague of the digital era. It isthe largest single threat to the survival ofcreative enterprises
