[edit] History

TV9 existed as Channel 9 from September 9, 2003 to February 1, 2005, but following Media Prima Berhad's acquisition of Ch-9 Media Sdn Bhd, the station's name was renamed and relaunched with a tagline "Dekat Di Hati" ("Close to the heart" in Malay) and content geared towards Malay audience. Test transmissions resumed on April 1, 2006 by airing music videos mostly in Malay.

[edit] Content and Features

Despite its focus mainly on Malay programming, the station also airs a few Chinese, Korean, Japanese, as well as Indian programmes on a weekly basis. English programmes such as Crocodile Hunter, Mutant X, Band of Brothers, Guinness World Records are also currently aired. During the 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. airtime block daily, the station airs children's shows such as Nickelodeon cartoons like Dora the Explorer, Blue's Clues and more which are all dubbed in Malay.

TV9 currently broadcasts Edisi 7 (7 Edition), a Malay language news programme at 8:00 p.m. courtesy of ntv7, before getting approval to air their own news. Liputan 9 (9 Coverage) was Channel 9's primetime news programme when it was in transmission. The station's transmission starts from 12:00 p.m. until 1:00 a.m., considerably short when compared to other television stations. During the Ramadan month, daily broadcast will be changed temporarily from 12.00 p.m. till 6.30 a.m. It will resume to its normal daily broadcast once Hari Raya Aidilfitri is over.

TV9 currently broadcasts under UHF (Ultra High) Frequency. In the Klang Valley, the UHF channel is 39.

It will be available in Astro (Malaysian Satellite TV Provider) once MEASAT 3 is launched.
