Local broadcasters and media should increase their international reach to reduce the negative impact of over-the-top (OTT) services, says management consultancy Time Consulting. "Local broadcasters and production firms are just starting to export their content." Local content can be co-produced with other linear TV firms or be set as exclusive content for OTT players like Line TV and GMM Grammy Plc. However, they can offset this trend by increasing their international reach," said Mr Jackkit. Moving forward, the digital TV sector will experience increasing merger and acquisition activity, said Mr Jackkit.
