Fiji's newest TV station, Mai TV is now hoping to have a pay channel by next year.
While celebrating the station's first birthday today, Mai TV CEO, Richard Broadbridge said they have some plans ahead and will announce a major deal in the coming weeks.
Broadbridge said it has been a challenging 12 months with some people writing them off even before they went to air exactly one year ago today.
He said while it has always been challenging to compete with a TV station which has been in the market for 14 years since they arrived, Mai TV is now living the dream.
Mai TV hits Ba and Tavua in August and they go up to the North to Labasa and Savusavu in February 2010. Broadbridge said they will have 87 percent of the population coverage by next year.
They have just announced that Mai TV has won the broadcast rights for the Oceania Football Confederation Futsal Championship to be held in Suva from the 6th to the 10th of next month.
