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.

Famous quotes containing the word part:
“When we choose to be parents, we accept another human being as part of ourselves, and a large part of our emotional selves will stay with that person as long as we live. From that time on, there will be another person on this earth whose orbit around us will affect us as surely as the moon affects the tides, and affect us in some ways more deeply than anyone else can. Our children are extensions of ourselves in ways our parents are not, nor our brothers and sisters, nor our spouses.”
—Fred Rogers (20th century)
