As the name indicates, RTM Parlimen is a government channel dedicated to covering Parliament proceedings in Malaysia. This channel’s first telecast started in 2008. This was a big step by the Malaysian government to gain the trust of its citizens by providing transparent information about the government policies and workings.
Malaysia has a federal government consisting of Dewan Rakyat, or the House of Representatives, and Dewan Negara, the Senate. RTM Parlimen airs the live proceedings of both these Parliamentary Houses.
Being a government channel, RTM Parlimen is available for free as a terrestrial channel to all Malaysians. For digital streaming. Most viewers use the official RTM website or TV Online Malaysia for HD transmission.
