antv is an Indonesian television network based in South Jakarta. It is owned by PT Visi Media Asia .

History

antv was launched on March 1, 1993 as a local television station in Lampung province. In the same month it was awarded a government license for nationwide broadcasting, and moved its studio to Jakarta. The first programming it produced itself was live coverage of the general session of the People's Consultative Assembly on 1 March 1993.

On September 29, 2005, Rupert Murdoch's Asian broadcaster STAR TV bought a 20% stake in antv (split from TV7). Under Indonesian law, foreign companies can only have a 20% stake in local media companies.

As of 2008, antv has 24 relay stations covering 155 cities across Indonesia. It reaches 130 million people

Relationships with MTV Networks
When MTV Indonesia was created by a joint venture between Bakrie & Brothers and MTV Networks Asia Pacific in 1993, antv showed its first music programming services. However, antv removed the MTV Network programming in 2001, after MTV dropped out of the venture.

Sports programming
Antv does not broadcast any foreign sport programming. Instead it shows Indonesian Super League and Indonesia Premier League, along with its sister channel tvOne.
