RTB announced the beginning of a one-hour satellite slot using the Indonesian Palapa B2P satellite on 24 December 1993. The service, named RTB Sukmaindera, was set to start on 1 January 1994. The primary target audience was Bruneians in the Malay archipelago, delivering news, current affairs programmes and documentaries produced by RTB.[2]
