Gulong Ng Palad
Gulong Ng Palad will air on Mai TV

MAI TV is pleased to announce that it has been given the approval by its Board of Directors' to launch its free to air services to Nadi and Lautoka next month.

The company launched its channel MAI TV in June in the greater Suva area this year becoming Fiji's second free to air TV network.

"We have purchased most of the equipment with our signal already being delivered to Nadi. Now we just need to transmit it", Managing Director Richard Broadbridge said.

MAI TV says it will repeat some of its top shows including Paradise or Bust, Flying with the Fijians, We Ni Yava and the CSI’s to get the people of Nadi and Lautoka to catch up with the latest programmes.

Broadbridge said a tuning campaign will begin in the next 3 weeks.

Meanwhile MAI TV has signed up another programme to join its stable of high quality entertaining shows.

The popular DVD show Gulong Ng Palad finally comes to Television in Fiji.

MAI TV has won the exclusive right to air the popular Filipino made programme.

Once a popular radio show in the Phillipines, the new 'Gulong Ng Palad', has been modernized, although the basic plotline remains the same.

The story still revolves around Luisa and Carding, who come from different worlds but whose great love defies all odds.

Gulong has up till now been sold illegally by pirate operators in Fiji, Samoa and Tonga.

Gulong will go to air as MAI TV launches in Nadi and Lautoka.
