KUCHING: The temporary closure of TVS newsroom after one of the staff members contracted Covid-19 will not affect the shows aired by the TV station.
TVS chief executive officer Suhaimi Sulaiman said TVS broadcast journalists start presenting the 8pm news from their homes from today (Apr 18) onwards.
“Not even Covid-19, will stop us from doing what we do best; bringing the latest news to our viewers. We just have to be creative,” he said in a TVS statement.
