| In addition to Discovery Channel which
has been on the HK platform for five years there are Animal Planet
and Discovery Travel & Adventure. They are being carried in the basic
tier.
Cable Television's premium tier will include three other DNA channels:
Discovery Health, Discovery Science and Discovery Home & Leisure.
The channels will debut later this year.
Cable TV's executive director, Eric Lo was quoted in a report saying,
"Discovery Channel has won wide acclaim from Hong Kong viewers and
is one of our most watched channels. It is already a household name
in Hong Kong. I have no doubt the addition of more channels will
be welcomed by our viewers."
