The government of Pakistan has announced the establishment of a TV channel to promote media cooperation between Pakistan, Turkey, and Malaysia. Conversing with the reporters in Islamabad, Minister of Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry stated that focal individuals for media sharing have been appointed and a collaborative media network will be designed.

The inauguration of a dedicated TV channel was declared in September 2019 when heads of Pakistan, Turkey, and Malaysia decided to jointly establish an English-language television channel committed to encountering Islamophobia and removing “misperceptions” concerning Islam.
Furthermore, PM Imran Khan announced the decision after his trilateral conference with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and then-Malaysia Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York. The three-nation TV channel would offer Muslims a reliable media presence to support in “setting the record straight” on Islam and opposing the phenomenon of Islamophobia internationally.
