None of the questions posed by me here regarding the monopoly by Astro regarding Pay TV when I was debating the 2011 Budget debate last week have been answered by the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Information, Multimedia & Culture, YB Datuk Joseph Sallang Gandum. We all know that Astro is a monopoly in the Pay TV industry and there was no or very little control over it. So far we can see that Astro is allowed to air tv commercials when other Pay TV compnaies were not allowed to do so. Why the special privileges given to Astro and not others?
