The Hong Kong team set a historic record in the Tokyo Olympics, which raises concerns about whether the Paralympic Games to be held at the end of this month can sustain the momentum.
The Hong Kong government this time spent less than 120 million yuan to purchase the broadcasting rights of Eastern Olympics, which will be broadcast by 5 TV stations.
According to the Legislative Council document, the government has reached an agreement with five television stations, including the need to "appropriately" broadcast the Paralympic games and highlights, and produce related programs for a specified number of hours.
"Hong Kong 01" inquired with the Civil Affairs Bureau for two consecutive days. The authorities only stated that the relevant TV broadcasters were required to "broadcast daily highlights of the Tokyo Paralympic Games" and broadcast the opening and closing ceremonies of the Paralympics.
As for the arrangement of the five TV stations, only TVB, Hong Kong TV and ViuTV responded to inquiries, but only said that they would broadcast the Paralympic Games.
ViuTV said that the opening and closing ceremonies will be broadcast live, and a total of one hour of the highlights of the event will be broadcast every day. The rest has not announced specific arrangements.
