Celestial Movies launched today on the cable and DTH satellite platform operated by Indonesian pay-TV operator TELKOMVision.

This positions Celestial Movies as the only Chinese movie channel available on all four major pay-TV platforms in the country.

The Jakarta-based TELKOMVision is Indonesia 's only pay-TV operator that provides both DTH and cable TV services. Its pay-TV services cover five major Indonesian cities, and the country's archipelago, with a wide range of services.

This year, the company rolled out the country's first pre-paid pay-TV, creating more choices and flexibility of its services for subscribers.

Celestial Movies has localised its channel for Indonesia since July 1. All movies are subtitled in Bahasa Indonesian and all on-air promotions are fully dubbed in the same local language.

Celestial Movies is watched in 12 territories across Asia Pacific, reportedly making it the most broadly distributed 24-hour Chinese movie channel. More than 500 movies, including 200 first-run and recent releases, make their exclusive premieres on the channel every year.
