Dish One

Dish One is a pan-Asian pay television channel owned by Dish Networks Asia, a subsidiary of the VGC Cable Group unit of Filipino media conglomerate VGC.
== Background ==
VGC granted a congressional license in the Philippines to operate a satellite service throughout the country. The company took advantage of this by building a satellite service with its own set of specialty channels. It was named Dish after VGC signed a licensing agreement with DISH Network Corporation, which allowed them to use the name and branding of the United States version of Dish.
The channel, along with Dish Sports and Dish Cinema, was set to launch in 2020, but was later pushed to an unknown date following the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world. While some speculated it was set to launch by 2022, VGC announced in May 2021 that the channels will launch in October. Some thought this was in response to The Walt Disney Company's decision to shut down 18 television channels in Asia in the same month to focus on Disney+.
