MESSAGE FROM THE ABU SECRETARY-GENERAL

thOn the occasion of the 15 International Conference and Exhibition on

Terrestrial and Satellite Broadcasting being held in New Delhi from 23 to th25 February 2009, I am delighted to convey the ABU's best wishes to the

Broadcast Engineering Society (India).

India in itself is among the largest broadcasting markets in the world, one

that is witnessing multiplicity of services and delivery platforms. Indeed,

these provide a huge choice to audiences in accessing the content they

need from the delivery platform they require. Mobility, which has emerged

as an important facet for delivery of content, has made its debut. All these

developments have impacted media consumption and audiences can no

longer be grouped simply as radio and TV consumers.

The BES conference has been sensitive to media developments and has

addressed important issues in its deliberations. While enhancing its

standing as a regional event, the organisers are working on transforming

the conference into an international event. The ABU has and will continue

to assist the BES in realising that objective and in promoting this notable

industry event. In this context, the theme of this year's conference

“Broadcast Technology: Integrating the World” is very

appropriate.

As an Honorary Fellow of the BES, I wish you a successful conference and

exhibition.

IABM MESSAGE

MESSAGE

The BES International Conference and Exhibition 2009, once again,

provides a forum to address current issues facing the broadcasting

industry. Following the growth of the BES event over the years, one cannot

but notice that the conference has established itself as an international

event, a gathering of experts from all over the world. This adds another

dimension to the event, helping to service the needs of the region.

In several countries around the region, broadcasters are grappling with

several options they face in their march to the future. The most notable

among these are introduction of mobile broadcasting and HDTV. The

debate is whether implementing mobile broadcasting should be given

preference over HDTV or for that matter the entire slew of DTV services.

Both are capital intensive, in capex and for operations.

Another issue that arises in the case of DTV / HDTV is whether an entire

terrestrial infrastructure should be built up, something that would need

huge investments, or whether these services should be disseminated

totally over the satellite platform.

In reality, this issue assumes high importance for large countries like India.

The current economic situation could make it difficult to secure resources

for the next move in broadcasting, placing additional responsibility on the

planners to chart out the most effective direction.

I wish the BES all the success in its efforts to bring into focus the

development of broadcasting in the region.
