CLP Telecommunications, a wholly owned subsidiary, formed a partnership with Yes Television, which has a Hong Kong license and also operates DSL service in London. The two plan an interactive-TV service under the brand name Oxygen. Wharf's Ng says he's not writing off the company's ability to rival I-Cable. Not necessarily consumer doors, but government doors. That kind of relationship with the regulators can help CLP, he adds.
Wharf says it had already made provisions for the penalty.
With that court case at last completed, the company can focus on building its Hong Kong base. And if TVB doesn't proceed with its Galaxy service, Ng says he won't be deterred. If they decide that they don't want to get into the business, that doesn't mean that we don't want to get into theirs. After all, they started it. And Ng now intends to finish it.
