About SkyNet Media

SkyNet Media, an extension of Shwe Than Lwin Media, has been a prominent media entity in Myanmar since its inception. Shwe FM, the pioneering media entity, began its journey in 2009 and later expanded its operations, leading to the establishment of SkyNet Media in 2011. Through our pioneering DTH network and digital platforms, we empower people with the knowledge and entertainment they need, connecting Myanmar to the global community.

SkyNet Media offers two primary services to its audience:

Pay TV

A subscription-based service where viewers pay a fee to access a variety of content.

Free-to-Air TV

This service is freely accessible to viewers, sustained through advertising fees and sponsorships.

SkyNet Media distributes its content through DTH (Direct to Home) and DTT (Digital Terrestrial Television) platforms. With the rising demand for OTT (Over-the-top) platforms, SkyNet is adapting to the trend, as more young people spend their leisure time in the virtual world.

The content broadcasted by SkyNet Media is diverse, including:

  • Entertainment
  • Sports
  • Infotainment
  • Edutainment
  • Documentaries
  • Content for Kids and Youth

 

SkyNet Media not only purchases and broadcasts local content but also has an in-house production team that produces and screens film series. Additionally, SkyNet broadcasts international content, such as the English Premier League and foreign series acquired from overseas.

SkyNet DTH provides nationwide coverage, adapting to the changing viewership patterns, especially among young people, who are shifting towards digital platforms. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, this trend has accelerated, with viewers spending more time on virtual platforms. The popularity of Korean pop culture and online platforms among teen viewers has also risen.
