PHNOM PENH, July 16, 2012 (Xinhua) -- The Cambodian News Channel (CNC) , which is the country's first 24-hour news broadcasting service, was launched on Monday.
The CNC was owned by Kith Meng, one of the most influential tycoons in Cambodia.
Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, Kith Meng, president of the CNC, said that the investment in the channel was 15 million U. S. dollars.
"It is the first ever 24-hour news broadcasting television in Cambodia," said Kith Meng, who is also the owner of locally well- known CTN (Cambodian Television Network) and My TV.
"The CNC is aimed at broadcasting news relevant to Cambodia's economic development and hot news from around the globe," he said.
The channel broadcasts news in Khmer language only.
Addressing the event, Khieu Kanharith, Minister of Information, said that the government of Cambodia fully supported the CNC, saying that it will meet the demand of Cambodian people who wish to see the development of Cambodia and the events happening around the world.
Currently, there are more than a dozen of local TV channels in Cambodia.

News should be all news.
Why did Kith Meng stress on " Cambodia economic development " only ?
How about negative news on Hun Sen's regime ?
Is this another Hun Sen's tool ?

Kith Meng become rich because he do business with Hun Sen and his cronies, so he would never said anything negative about Hun Sen. All CTN and CNC news will be about praising and lauding Hun Sen. It's not news, its propaganda.
