Digital free-to-air TV is here and people only need to tune in to enjoy the benefits, says Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) chief digital officer Gerard Lim.

During a media briefing at the MCMC office in Cyberjaya, Lim adds that households in Malaysia should make the move so they are not left out when the analogue transmission is completely shut down in the third quarter of this year.
