AJI debuts today

UPDATED VERSION. The first few minutes of AJI when it went on air today...

The long-awaited news channel in English, Al-Jazeera International (AJI), is slated to debut today, beaming 24/7 from Doha, London and Kuala Lumpur.

ASTRO carries Al-Jazeera on Channel 92. What's the time-slot for KL's programming? Looking forward to seeing Sir David Frost and hearing his Queen's English.

Finally! I got so sick of waiting at least 30 seconds for the Malay translator to string the words together on the Arabic one.

Saw the news segment last night. Surprised to see Veronica Pedrosa (ex-CNN) and one of the blokes from CNBC hosting it. even in the broadcasting industry there seems to be high turnover of newscasters.
