MYTV Mana-Mana offers premium TV content ‘priced for Malaysians'
Malaysians can now look forward to even more local and international content with the launch of MYTV Mana-Mana Premium, at an affordable RM6.90 a month. This upgrade comes two years after the introduction of the local over-the-top (OTT) streaming platform that provides free digital content across a range of genres including news, entertainment, lifestyle and education. With the premium option now available, MYTV Broadcasting – the company behind the platform – offers not just 22 live TV channels and 22 live radio stations, but also video-on-demand content and MYTV original shows. And importantly, the premium version comes without advertisements, providing viewers an uninterrupted experience. At the official launch of the service in Kuala Lumpur recently, group chief executive officer of MYTV Broadcasting, Mohamad Helmi Harith, stressed that the introduction of the premium model does not mean the end of the free service. 'Yes, today we're launching MYTV Mana-Mana Premium – but I want to make one thing very clear – the free version, which is already available, is still here and will continue to be here for everyone to enjoy,' he said. 'That remains our commitment because MYTV Mana-Mana was created for all Malaysians, from every walk of life.' He added: 'Now, for those who want more – more choices, more live TV channels, more original content and more on-demand shows – we're unlocking the next level. 'MyTV Mana-Mana Premium is our way of offering a richer experience at an affordable price.' 'Priced for Malaysians' Proudly stating that the platform is 'made for Malaysians and priced for Malaysians', it offers three subscription plans, all of which allow access across four devices. Users can opt to pay RM6.90 for one month, RM19.90 for three months or RM74.90 for a full year. An additional premium package is also available, priced slightly higher with more features, at RM9.90 monthly, RM28.90 for three months and RM106.90 annually. 'Premium entertainment doesn't have to come with a premium price,' said Syaffandi Shahrom, acting chief operating officer of MYTV Broadcasting. 'MYTV Mana-Mana Premium is built for families, students and individuals alike whether you watch on your mobile, tablet or big screen via Google TV. 'With this low entry rate, we truly hope that everyone from urban areas to rural communities can all enjoy the full offerings of MYTV Mana-Mana Premium.' The platform features a mix of channels that includes KCM, Rock Action, Rock Entertainment, Aniplus, One, Arirang, Global Trekker, CNA, Suke TV and RTM's TV1 and TV2, to name a few. The content spans Hollywood films, local and international dramas, sports, anime, cartoons, travel programmes and documentaries. Check out K-dramas such as 'Oh My Ghost Clients' on the platfrom.

Several projects are currently in production, with plans to launch in the coming months. Actor-producer Datuk Rosyam Nor, who is partnering with MYTV through his production company to develop two drama series, welcomed the new platform as a much-needed addition to Malaysia's creative ecosystem. 'I'm grateful that we now have another local platform. This creates more opportunities for Malaysia's creative industry to showcase its content,' he said. His company is preparing two 30-episode dramas, titled Semanis Warda and Musnah Itu Janji. Rosyam Nor says having another platform is good for the creative industry. Photo:KK SHAM/The StarHe shared more information on Musnah Itu Janji at the event. 'It tells the story of a woman who is devastated to learn that she is, unknowingly, a second wife. 'Her heartbreak deepens when she's told that one of her newborn twins has died. 'The truth is the baby was secretly given to the first wife, who cannot conceive,' Rosyam said. Another series in the works under the Originals umbrella is Suri Hati Mr Parlimen, said to be inspired by the real-life relationship between singer-actress Bella Astillah and Muar MP Syed Saddiq. The platform is also developing Cinta A.I., a 20-episode series based on a webtoon about a man who uses artificial intelligence to win the heart of his dream girl. Also on the slate are Dua Dunia, which explores the life of a man with two personalities, and Biar Hati Berbicara, a moving drama about a mute girl who is betrayed by her boyfriend.

NHP issue: Gandapur seeks PM's backing for ‘innovative' solution
ISLAMABAD: Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sardar Ali Amin Gandapur has sought Prime Minister's support in out-of-the-box solution to Net Hydel Profit (NHP) issue pending resolution between Wapda and provinces. In a letter to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, he sought his attention to Article 161(2) of the Constitution, which mandates that the net profits earned from a hydroelectric station shall be paid to the entitled province at a rate determined by the Council of Common Interests (CCI). The Kazi Committee Methodology (KCM) was approved by the CCI in January 1991 and to that effect the first payment of Rs. 6 billion was made to the then North-West Frontier Province (NWFP) in 1992. The KCM was also endorsed by the National Finance Commission (NFC), upheld by the Supreme Court of Pakistan in 1997, and repeatedly reaffirmed in CCI meetings held in 1991, 1993, 1997, 1998, 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2022. NHP methodology, power projects' transfer: Wapda, provinces continue to have serious differences Recognizing the financial challenges faced by the GoKP, the Federal Government introduced an 'interim arrangement,' which was duly endorsed by the CCI in 2016. This arrangement provided for NHP payments at a rate of Rs. 1.10/kWh with a 5% annual indexation, incorporated into Wapda's generation tariff, impacting the consumer tariff by approximately 18 paisa per unit. Accordingly, Wapda began making payments to Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa; however, these payments have not been made consistently as per the agreed arrangement. This has resulted in an outstanding shortfall of Rs. 75 billion for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Subsequently, in response to a summary moved by the Provincial Government for the full implementation of KCM, the CCI, in its 37th meeting held on April 24, 2018, constituted a committee under the Deputy Chairman of the Planning Commission (DCPC) to deliberate on the determination of net profit rates in light of CCI decisions. This committee presented its report in December 2019, which was endorsed by the CCI. The report confirmed Rs. 128 billion as Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's rightful share and Rs. 52 billion for Punjab for FY 2016-17, based on KCM. Subsequently, another committee was constituted to propose an 'Out-of-the-Box' solution for the payment of Net Hydel Profit to the entitled provinces. According to the Chief Minister, the 'Out-of-the-box' committee has held five meetings, wherein it was decided that all stakeholders would submit their proposals. The Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has already shared its proposal with the Planning Commission. The Chief Minister further stated that given the severe financial constraints facing the province, it is imperative to expedite the resolution of this matter. He urged the Prime Minister Office to direct the Deputy Chairman of the Planning Commission to convene a meeting of the 'Out-of- the-Box' Committee at the earliest to ensure a just and equitable resolution, hoping that PM's leadership would facilitate this process and be instrumental in securing the rightful share of resources for the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, in line with constitutional provisions and prior CCI decisions. 'I remain confident that, under your (PM Shehbaz Sharif) leadership, we can navigate these challenges and ensure a fair and transparent resolution that upholds the principles of justice and equity for all stakeholders, 'Gandapur added. The KPK government has proposed a second interim arrangement to settle the outstanding dues by increasing the electricity tariff by Rs.1/kWh. Additionally, the province reiterated its earlier stance of transferring the hydro power stations to the respective provinces. Regarding delay in NHP payments, the GoKP argued that Wapda is no longer revenue collecting agency for the power sector, as CPPA-G is acting as a collecting agency of the Federal Government, therefore, the payment should be made by CPPA-G, under Power Division. The government of KP presented following three proposals: Proposal i: payment of NHP by Federal Govt. as guaranteed under Article 161 (2) of the Constitution, Presidential Order No 3, decisions of CCI from 1993 to 2022 and subsequent calculations made by Jehanzeb Committee in the report approved by CCI December 23, 2019. Federal government may consider financing of power component of a hydro power station from PSDP on the analogy of Dam component. So that the revenues generated may be made available for NHP payments to the entitled provinces: Proposal ii: transfer the existing Hydro Power stations, currently owned by Wapda, to the respective provinces, as was previously proposed by GoPb. The Power Generation Policies of 1995 and 2015 otherwise allow transfer of power stations to the provinces. Federal government may pay the outstanding NHP payments as per KCM to the provinces till the transfer of hydro power stations to the provinces. O&M can be retained by Wapda. Proposal III: Till the finalization options, the Federal Government may announce a 2nd interim arrangement of NHP payment by increasing consumer end tariff by Re1/KWh to generate the requisite funds. Provincial government suggests that Instead of Wapda, CPPA-G may directly pay NHP to the entitled provinces through ESCROW account. Copyright Business Recorder, 2025

NHP methodology, power projects' transfer: Wapda, provinces continue to have serious differences
ISLAMABAD: The Water and Power Development Authority (Wapda) and provincial governments continue to have serious differences regarding the methodology of Net Hydel Profit (NHP) and the transfer of power projects to respective provinces, sources in the Ministry of Planning, Development, and Special Initiatives told Business Recorder. Sharing the details, sources said that a Technical Committee comprising representatives from Wapda and the provinces is holding discussions to evolve a consensus on a workable formula. During the 5th meeting of the Committee held on January 10, 2025, it was agreed that members would furnish firmed-up proposals to be discussed in the next meeting. Based on input from stakeholders, a report will be submitted to the Council of Common Interests (CCI). KP demands Re1/unit hike: NHP: centre-provinces row reignites As per the decision, the provincial governments, Wapda, and Power Planning and Monitoring Company (PPMC)—representing the Power Division, Ministry of Energy— submitted written comments along with their proposals, which are as follows: Govt of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (GoKP): The provincial government emphasised to make the payments of NHP as per Kazi Committee Methodology (KCM), which was approved by the National Finance Commission (NFC) in 1988, Federal Cabinet in 1990, and the CCI in 1991, and its validity was further reinforced by the Supreme Court's 1997 judgment in the Gadoon Textile Case and being a constitutional right under Article 161 (2) of the Constitution. The GoKP has proposed a second interim arrangement to settle the outstanding dues by increasing the electricity tariff by Rs.1/ kWh. Additionally, the federal government reiterated its earlier stance of transferring the hydro power stations to the respective provinces. Regarding delay in NHP payments, the GoKP pointed out that Wapda is no longer a revenue collecting agency for the power sector, as CPPA-G is acting as a collecting agency of the federal government; therefore, the payment should be made by CPPA- G, under Power Division. Govt of KP presented following three proposals: (i) payment of NHP by federal government as guaranteed under Article 161 (2) of the Constitution, Presidential Order No 3, decisions of CCI from 1993 to 2022 and subsequent calculations made by Jahanzeb Committee in the report approved by CCI December 23, 2019. Federal government may consider financing of power component of a hydro power station from PSDP on the analogy of Dam component. Proposal ii: so that the revenues generated may be made available for NHP payments to the entitled provinces transfer the existing Hydro Power stations, currently owned by Wapda, to the respective provinces, as was previously proposed by GoPb. The Power Generation Policies of 1995 and 2015 otherwise allow transfer of power stations to the provinces. Federal government may pay the outstanding NHP payments as per KCM to the provinces till the transfer of hydro power stations to the provinces. O&M can be retained by Wapda. Proposal iii: Till the finalization options, the federal government may announce a 2nd interim arrangement of NHP payment by increasing consumer end tariff by Rs. 1/ KWh to generate the requisite funds. Instead of Wapda, CPPA-G may directly pay NHP to the entitled provinces through ESCROW account. By determining wheeling charges based on the rate of power wheeling from Pehru Hydropower Station, PEDO be facilitated to wheel up to 1,500 MW of power, facilitating its sale through electricity wheeling. Water Usage Charges may also be enhanced to Rs. 3/ kWh. Government of Punjab: Government of Punjab mentioned that mandate of the Committee, constituted by CCI in its 41st meeting due to divergent viewpoints on KCM, was later changed through revised minutes by amending the original ToRs; i.e., 'determine an out of box solution/ methodology to determine net hydel profit' to 'propose an out of box solution for the payments of net hydel profit to entitled provinces. Therefore, Punjab maintains that without addressing the methodology issue for NHP calculation under Article 161 (2), NHP payments to the provinces cannot be resolved. As per Article 161 (2) of Constitution, CCI is to determine the revenues from bulk power supply at hydro-electric stations. However, the KCM considers the average basket price, incorporating various energy sources & factors and only accounts for the electricity losses at the point of generation, neglecting additional losses incurred during transmission, distribution, and commercial operations. Therefore, KCM is non-implementable and violative of the Constitution. Power generation mix has shifted significantly over time, with hydel's share decreasing from 60% to 23% and thermal power becoming the dominant source, accounting for 70% of total generation. Besides this, certain factors such as Energy Purchase Price (39% of tariff), Capacity Purchase Price (61% of tariff), Distribution & Supply margins, transmission charges, Market Operation Fee, and Prior Years adjustments, along with various types of taxes, contribute towards the tariff and average unit price of electricity, although these cannot be considered part of the revenue. As per minutes of 41st & 49th CCI meeting, electricity tariff is expected to increase significantly, from Rs.4.50 to Rs.7.50, alongside a rising circular debt projected to reach Rs.7 trillion by 2030.

Important Risk Information: Equity securities (stocks) are generally more volatile and carry more risk than fixed income securities (bonds) and money market investments. The net asset value per share of the Small Cap Value fund (the Fund) will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes. Common stocks, and funds investing in common stocks, generally provide greater returns over long time periods than fixed income securities. The Fund is comprised primarily of equity securities and is subject to market risk. Stocks may decline due to general market and economic conditions or due to company specific circumstances. The Fund is comprised of small capitalization ("small cap") stocks. Small cap stocks typically carry additional risk, since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure, and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility. Small capitalization companies generally have a greater risk of failure, and their stocks generally have greater volatility than large companies. Mutual fund investing involves risk, including loss of principal. Risks specific to KVALX: Value investing is subject to the risk that the market will not recognize a security's inherent value for a long time or at all. Index definitions and technical terms: The Russell 2000® Value Index is used as the benchmark for the Kennedy Capital Small Cap Value Fund and strategy. The Russell 2000® Value Index measures the performance of small-cap value segment of the U.S. equity universe. It includes those Russell 2000 companies with relatively lower price-to-book ratios, lower I/B/E/S forecast medium term (2 year) growth and lower sales per share historical growth (5 year). The Russell 2000® Value Index is constructed to provide a comprehensive and unbiased barometer for the small-cap value segment. The Index is completely reconstituted annually to ensure new and growing equites are included and that the represented companies continue to reflect value characteristics.

The information contained herein: (1) is proprietary to Morningstar and/or its content providers; (2) may not be copied or distributed; and (3) is not warranted to be accurate, complete, or timely. Neither Morningstar nor its content providers are responsible for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information. The Morningstar RatingTM for funds, or "star rating", is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The Morningstar Rating does not include any adjustment for sales loads. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10- 3 year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods. As of 5/31/25, KVALX was rated against 477 Small Value funds for the 3-year period. KVALX received 4 stars for this period. The Small Value category includes funds that typically invest in small US companies with valuations and growth rates below other small-cap peers. Stocks in the bottom 10% of the capitalization of the US equity market are defined as small cap. Value is defined based on low valuations (low price ratios and high dividend yields) and slow growth (low growth rates for earnings, sales, book value, and cash flow). 2eVestment and its affiliated entities (collectively, "eVestment") collect information directly from investment management firms and other sources believed to be reliable; however, eVestment does not guarantee or warrant the accuracy, timeliness, or completeness of the information provided and is not responsible for any errors or omissions.
