Now A Part of TBS
On July 1, 2006, as part of Taiwan's media reform initiatives, PTS was made a major part of the two channel public television consortium known as the Taiwan Broadcasting System (TBS). Chinese Television System (CTS) holds the other part of the consortium. The two channels were combined to create Taiwan's first of its kind entertainment and information vehicle that aims to elevate Taiwan's television programming standards to critically acclaimed levels.
Under the agreement, PTS, being the original public television station, will have a more active contribution in the new consortium. It however, will be joining forces with CTS in terms of special news coverages such as elections.
