Radio Television Hong Kong (RTHK) has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Thai Public Broadcasting Service to explore further partnership opportunities across Southeast Asia.

The agreement – signed in Bangkok by Director of Broadcasting Angelina Kwan and Thai Public Broadcasting Service chief Vanchai Tantivitayapitak – will see the two networks collaborate on news, current affairs and joint on-location cultural productions.

The memorandum also outlines plans to promote joint productions, the exchange of production teams for on-location filming, talent training and staff exchanges.

Kwan said the signing of the MOU will help deepen RTHK's ties with Association of Southeast Asian Nations broadcasters and elevate its international communication capacity.

She noted that RTHK has already established cooperation agreements with public broadcasters in Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam and will continue to seek partnerships with other networks across the region.

During her visit to Bangkok, Kwan also met with the management of Nation Group – one of Thailand’s largest media companies – to learn about the media landscape there and explore opportunities for collaboration.
