MyTV unveils enhanced Mana-Mana Premium subscriptions with new channels, pricing tiers
by SUFEA SALEHUDDIN MYTV Broadcasting Sdn Bhd has launched its enhanced Premium subscription offerings for the MyTV Mana-Mana streaming platform, reinforcing its presence in Malaysia's digital content market with a broader range of exclusive features and pricing tiers. Although the paid plans were first introduced in May with minimal publicity, the latest announcement marks a formal relaunch, now accompanied by exclusive content and structural upgrades for all user categories. Under the revised model, MyTV Mana-Mana now offers two ad-free subscription tiers — Basic and Premium. The Basic plan is priced at RM6.90 per month, RM19.90 quarterly, or RM74.90 annually. The Premium plan, which includes the full suite of features, is available at RM9.90 per month, RM28.90 quarterly, or RM106.90 annually. Basic subscribers will gain access to all content offered under the free plan, along with four additional channels — Rock Action, Rock Entertainment, KCM and Global Trekker. The number of devices allowed for simultaneous streaming has also increased from three to four. Premium subscribers will enjoy all Basic content, plus access to Premium video-on-demand (VOD) titles, five additional channels — SPOTV Now, Aniplus, One, ZooMoo and Drama Channel — and exclusive MyTV Original productions covering both films and TV series. The Euronews channel, previously part of the Premium offering, is no longer included. MyTV confirmed that the free plan will remain accessible to all users without a subscription. However, the number of live TV channels has been slightly reduced from 23 to 22. The VOD library has now expanded to over 2,000 titles, while access to 22 live radio stations remains unchanged. Free-tier users are limited to single-device access and will continue to encounter advertisements during content playback. The platform's refreshed offerings reflect MyTV's broader strategy to grow its user base through content diversification and improved value propositions, amid increasing competition in Malaysia's streaming landscape. At the launch ceremony on Wednesday, themed 'Unlocked: The Full MYTV Mana-Mana Experience,' MyTV Group CEO Mohamad Helmi Harith said the initiative reaffirmed the company's commitment to delivering high-quality content to all segments of society. 'Today marks a significant milestone for MYTV Mana-Mana. All of this success stems from strong cooperation and exceptional synergy with our industry partners,' he said. Acting COO Syaffandi Shahrom added that the new offering is not just about content, but also about embracing creativity and inclusivity. 'Premium entertainment doesn't have to come with a premium price. We developed MYTV Mana-Mana Premium for families, students, and individuals — whether watching on a phone, tablet, or big screen. Our hope is for people in both urban and rural areas to enjoy the content we deliver,' he said. Beyond live TV and on-demand access, Premium subscribers will also enjoy locally produced exclusives under the MYTV Originals label, featuring blockbuster films, local and international dramas, children's animation, Korean and Indonesian programmes, sports coverage and informative documentaries — all on a single platform. To date, the free version of MYTV Mana-Mana has recorded over 800,000 downloads, reflecting strong demand for accessible, mobile-friendly entertainment. In a move to further expand its digital ecosystem, MyTV also announced strategic partnerships with PRISM+, FoodPanda and MPH Bookstores. Helmi said the collaborations are designed to create a new digital lifestyle experience by integrating content, community and commerce. 'This fusion of cinema and lifestyle will expand our reach and create added value for users. We're excited to share more details about these partnerships soon,' he said.

Will Ed Miliband's precious net zero sound the death knell for his career?
It was a surprise to see Ed Miliband in Parliament for questions about the Heathrow fire, because I just assumed he started it. I.e, that Britain's most powerful fruitcake, in a desperate bid to stop the planes and hit net zero, tossed his bicycle – including stabilisers – over the fence of the substation and brought the nation to a halt. My TV said: 'If you are stranded as a result of the Heathrow closure, do call Ben and Nana at GBNews.' How was that supposed to help?! Was lovely Ben going to drive me to Alicante? The ministerial statement was delivered by Heidi Alexander, who has the voice of a complaints hotline ('If you think you are entitled to compensation, press one'), and Ed sat next to her, nodding along either to her answers or to Good Morning Starshine from the musical Hair, which plays on a loop in his head. Heidi's predecessor was Louise Haigh; we've gone from pink hair to masses of white hair, suggesting Ms Alexander touched the substation and received a shock. 'There will of course be learnings,' she said inelegantly, and a report by Ruth Kelly called The Kelly Report – as if a second gunman were involved. In fact there was no terrorism, never a risk to life at the airport. Maybe it's strange that Heathrow relies on one substation when it has 14 branches of Jamie's Italian, but this wasn't the Hindenburg. So why did Ed and half his department show up to support Heidi on the green benches (this does not normally happen)? Perhaps in anticipation of a question such as Sir Edward Leigh's: could net zero pose any security risk? In this instance, no; Sir Ed's provocation was brushed off. But net zero does seem to pose a risk to Mili-B's eccentric career. Rumour has it, his head's on the block. Rachel Reeves, having killed the private sector with her first budget, is now all about cuts and growth – and net zero is perceived to be a costly jobs killer. But I think he's safe. A poll of Labour members found he's the most popular minister. Why? Because he's the only one doing something they like. Telegraph readers might regard the government as far-left, but remove net zero and its policies are to cut foreign aid, cut benefits and raise defence spending, making it seem far-right to the grassroots. Miliband helps maintain a pretence that Labour is different-ish from the Tories, thanks to videos of him touring wind farms with Blue Peter energy. His sticky-backed plastic, Groovy Gang, 'cool kids pick up litter' vibe is enhanced by a cosmic self-assurance that borders on the guru. I caught a glimpse of him in the locker room space behind the Speaker's Chair, and he stood tall with his thumbs tucked in his belt, a kind of green John Wayne. The man has presence. If he is arrested for the Heathrow incident, voters won't have trouble picking that wackadoo out of a line-up. Can't say that for so many other MPs: collars askew, squeaky voices, raising deep and serious concerns about Putin's threat to our freedom to fly to Prague for £30 return. Yeah. One senses Vladimir has bigger fish to fry.
