History

The channel was set up in order to demonstrate that a private TV channel can provide the best for the people of Brunei. It was to be launched in 2009, but due to the late-2000s financial crisis, it operated only temporarily so as to ensure that the channel would operate well in 2010. The channel initially introduced a number of programs from abroad and through the Malay language, but it has since began to introduce its own programs.
