Broadcast
Asia 2001 Message
PRESIDENT
Mr
Ernest Wong
Association Of Broadcasters ( Singapore )
I offer
my heartiest congratulations to Singapore Exhibition Services
for organising BroadcastAsia2001. With their wealth of experience
in staging major international and regional events in Singapore,
I am certain that this year's meet will be another great success.
The Association
of Broadcasters( Singapore ) was established in October 1997 as
a result of rapid changes in the broadcasting landscape. The ABS
acts as "the voice " of its members; addressing matters
of common interests to members related to broadcasting in one
way or another; and represents them in communications with other
government authorities' private bodies and the general public.
The ABS also serves as a useful information centre for its members.
With the
digital revolution continually reshaping the dynamics of the broadcasting
industry and redefining the role(s) of traditional media players,
the advent of digital television will undoubtedly present many
growth opportunities to all in this new information age. The potential
arising from such technological advances is enormous and limited
only by our imagination. At the same time, broadcasts today are
faced with increasing competition from a wide range of new technologies,
as well as the customers' willingness to pay for these service
options. With so many exciting developments happening in our industry,
it will be interesting to see how our members map out strategies
to understand, meet and exceed customer needs as the new millennium
unfolds.
We foresee
a vibrant time ahead for everyone involved in the broadcast industry
and consumers alike. ABS and its members promise to contribute
to this paradigm shift through our active participation in all
new areas of learning and knowledge or experience sharing .
I wish
all visitors and participants a fruitful time at the BroadcastAsia2001
and a memorable stay in Singapore.
