DW in HD is an additional offering next to the existing TV channel in SD and radio services on AsiaSat 7. DW’s German-language program will continue its service across Asia via AsiaSat 5. For the past 20 years, AsiaSat and DW have partnered to bring German information and culture to Asia. The enhanced service offering demonstrates their commitment to providing more high-quality and relevant content to Asia.

The AsiaSat fleet’s comprehensive access to Asian TV viewers has enabled DW to upgrade viewing experience as well as harness audience with different language interests.
