Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The AMS 2006 was held at the end of May in the Malaysian capital, brought together nearly 400 movers and shakers of the mainstream broadcast media in Asia - home to the world's largest TV and radio audiences. Primarily an industry gathering, it also attracted development agencies trying to 'hitch a ride' on the airwaves to get across their public interest messages.
AIBD in collaboration with its partners and international organizations is organizing the Asia Media Summit (AMS). The conference provides a unique opportunity for broadcasters in the region to share their thoughts on Broadcasting and Information.
Decision makers, media professionals, scholars, and stakeholders of news and programming from Asia, Pacific, Africa, Europe, Middle East and North America attended this annual conference. Almost all regional and International Broadcasting Unions and Associations support the AMS. Among the list of sponsors are Friederich Ebert Foundation (FES), Malaysian Airlines, Radio Television Malaysia (RTM), France, the United Nations, UNDP, UNESCO, ITU, UN-ESCAP, UNICEF and other partners.
