Vietnam to trial 4K standard from SeptemberVietNamNet Bridge – The Saigon Cable Television (SCTV) said it would broadcast television programs using the 4K standard in Vietnam this September, the first of its kind in Vietnam. This plan turns Vietnam into one of the first countries in Southeast Asia providing 4K standard television programs. SCTV will initially apply the 4K standard on one channel and then on others, with contents both produced by Vietnam and foreign channels. In the domestic market, about 1/3 models of TV sets are UltraHD 4K resolution TV screens. However, 4K content is not available much as all television services in Vietnam currently supply contents of HD standards.
