The state/public broadcaster is adequately
funded in a manner that protects it from arbitrary
interference through its budget and from commercial
pressure.
It was observed that TBC survives through state funding, although it also draws
revenue from adverts. There have been concerns that as TBC is funded through
taxpayer money, it should not compete for adverts with commercial and private
broadcasters. TBC has a sister company in a joint venture with China, which will
be trading in broadcast equipment.
