Poor response has been received for the Chief Executive Officer’s post for Fiji Television Limited.
CEO of Fijian Holdings Limited which is the majority shareholder of Fiji TV, Nouzab Fareed said they are not focused on getting a new CEO for Fiji TV now as the board wants to turn around the company.
He also said the current financial year ends in June and they are focused on making changes to assist the company.
Fiji Television Group made a net loss of $1.52 million for the year ended 30th June 2014 compared to a profit of $3.6 million for the previous year.
Meanwhile Fiji TV confirms that they have signed the sub-license agreement with FBC TV for the entire HSBC 7s series this year and the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
Fareed said Fiji TV has already received the sub-license payments from FBC TV for the South Africa 7s.
He said the costs for the NZ 7s will only be known after they confirm all the costs including the broadcast rights, the satellite feed and telephone costs.
Fareed said they only have the rights for the HSBC World Series until October.
He said Fiji TV will make the decision on future tournaments when World Rugby opens up the process for broadcast rights.
