| EU Members Support NTDTV China Broadcast |
 |
WONG:
Following the report issued by Reporters Without
Borders last Friday, which showed that taking
NTDTV's satellite signal to China off the air was
a politically-motivated. European Parliament
members, Reporters Without Borders and the
International Federation of Journalists held a
press conference together with NTDTV at the
European Parliament in Brussels.
STORY:
Members of the European Parliament say they will
pressure Eutelsat to restore NTDTV's broadcast
into China as soon as possible.
[Marco Cappato; Member of European Parliament]:
"We are always discussing how to help information
going to Chinese people. Now the opposite is
happening, there is a European entity helping
information not going to the Chinese people."
Vice president of the European parliament Edward
McMillan Scott has demanded French president
Sarkozy to force Eutelsat to restore NTDTV's
broadcast into China.
[Edward McMillan Scott; Vice-President of European
Parliament]:
"I believe that it's most important today that
Eutelsat is forced to allow NTDTV to go on
broadcasting."
Coming from a post-communist country, Polish
Member of the European Parliament Hanna
Foltyn-Kubicka says she knows from her own
experience how important it is to have uncensored
information. She finds it scandalous that Eutelsat
compromised and disregarded human rights for
money.
German European Parliament Member, Helga Trüpel,
says that the Chinese authorities broke their
promise to open China to the outside world.
According to her it is more about closing down,
than opening up.
[Helga Trüpel; Member of European Parliament]:
"It's a question of self esteem because these are
our fundamental values and therefore as Europeans
we should defend and maintain them."
More then 50 Members of the European Parliament
have co-signed a letter addressed to Eutelsat's
CEO Giuliano Berretta, calling him to restore
NTDTV's broadcast. According to Italian Member
Marco Cappato, this is only the beginning of their
efforts.

Uncensored TV Service to China Shut Off
Seven weeks away from the Olympics, millions of
households in China are no longer receiving the
satellite broadcast from the largest independent
Chinese-language TV network.
New York, June 23 -- On Monday, June 16th, at
approximately 6:30 pm U.S. EST time, New Tang
Dynasty Television's (NTDTV) satellite broadcast
covering Asia suddenly stopped after more than
four years on air.
Eutelsat Communications, the satellite operator,
said that its W5 satellite had experienced "an
anomaly to part of its power generator subsystem"
and it had "reduced by a small number the
operating transponders on the satellite" in
collaboration with the satellite's manufacturer,
Thales Alenia Space.
One week has passed, NTDTV's signal remains dark
across Asia, and we still do not know what caused
the anomaly, why NTDTV's service was shut off, and
when it will be restored. Under normal commercial
practice, if a transponder goes down then the
satellite company responsible rapidly assures
alternative service for its channels.
"This is an urgent matter of highest importance to
NTDTV and to our viewers who depend on us for
uncensored news and information in Mainland
China," said Zhong Lee, President of NTDTV.
NTDTV has received much support on our audience
feedback web site, including these messages from
China:
"We feel like we cannot breathe the fresh air if
we cannot see NTDTV. We feel suffocated when we
see the faked news and reports from other
[Chinese] TV stations."
"We cannot live without NTDTV. Please resume as
soon as possible."
"Anger: Have not been able to view NTDTV for
several days. Really, really anxious."
"We do not need to change channels when we watch
NTDTV. This is a common feeling among many of our
friends. If it really is a technical problem,
Eutelsat, please fix it ASAP
....We support NTDTV!"
Zhong Lee concluded: "The harm this interruption
has caused to NTDTV and our audience must end. We
will spare no effort to obtain a full accounting
of the situation and to restore NTDTV's open
satellite broadcast over Asia as soon as
possible."
