ANOTHER MILESTONE ACHIEVED BY PAKISTAN’S PREMERE ENTERTAINMENT TELEVISION NETWORK...

HUM Network Limited has been elected a member of the Administrative Council of Asia-Pacific Broadcasters Union (ABU) for a third time running, stretching the Network's tenure to a record nine years, a privilege that no other organisation has enjoyed. The 14-member council recently met for its second general assembly in the year. The council meets twice-yearly to decide on policy matters, review the Union's finances and consider current issues facing the Union.

In addition to the Administrative Council, the Network also got elected in the ten-member Programmes Bureau which has been formed for the first time.

HUM Network has been a progressive organisation since the day of its inception, a fact that is evident from the recognition the Network has received globally. Recently, the Network's General Manager for International Affairs also got elected as President of the Commonwealth Broadcasting Association, for the third time.

The ABU, which celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2014, has more than 255 member broadcasters large and small spread across the region’s 63 countries, from Turkey in the west to Samoa in the east, and from Russia in the north to New Zealand in the south.
Established in 1964 as a non-profit, non-government, professional association to assist the development of broadcasting in the region, the ABU promotes the collective interests of television and radio broadcasters and encourages regional and international co-operation between broadcasters.
Full members are national free-to-air broadcasters in the Asia-Pacific region and there is associate membership for provincial broadcasters, subscription broadcasters or national broadcasters in other parts of the world. Other organisations connected to broadcasting can hold affiliate membership.
