For the daily newspaper, see Kompas.

PT Cipta Megaswara Televisi, operating as Kompas TV (English: Compass TV), is an Indonesian private terrestrial television news broadcaster.[1] It is owned by the KG Media unit of Kompas Gramedia Group, and named after its flagship property, the Kompas daily newspaper. Kompas TV was founded in 2008 and launched on 9 September 2011 with a concert by Simfoni Semesta Raya.[2] Kompas TV's current slogan is "Independent, Reliable" (Indonesian: Independen, Terpercaya).

On 28 January 2016, Kompas TV was relaunched as a news-oriented network during the Suara Indonesia special event.

Regional stations

Just hours before the launch of the channel in 2011, the Indonesian Broadcasting Commission announced that Kompas TV did not have a broadcasting license. In response, Kompas TV stated that the channel was merely a "content provider" and was not required to have a broadcast license because its content could be aired on regional and international channels.[3] Kompas TV started its broadcast through local television networks in some Indonesian provinces. The local television networks initially featured 70% of local content and 30% of Kompas TV national programs,[1][4] but the majority now air national programming.

Other Indonesian cities were expected to follow by establishing local stations that relay Kompas broadcasts. Since 9 September 2011, Kompas TV has been available through these pay television networks (but excluding local programs):[5]

Kompas TV can also be viewed through satellite broadcast from Telkom-4.

Digital broadcasting

PT Gramedia Nusantara proposed digital TV broadcasting, but the government postponed approval pending completion of its National TV Digital Broadcasting Policy.[6]
