Seems to be a hoax. No main stream coverage. — иz нίpнόp 07:20, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

~~I'd check for non-English sources first. In addition keep in mind that our articles covering this area of the world tend to have some serious copyedit needs.~~ Strong or speedy delete per User:Mrschimpf. Raymie (t • c) ~~22:34, 22 April 2012 (UTC)~~ 04:35, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete With the mess that is TV Aljazeera, also from ALJABBAR ALHIJRAH (talk · contribs) which you'd think would be the Malaysian branch of the global news network but is described but anything but that, and this provider's listed 2020 launch, I think we have another editor using Wikispace to host television fantasy lineups for their home nation. Most of the hits for the name "Mas Cable TV" come from providers selling Internet TV for Spanish speaking customers (no mas cable TV=no more cable TV).

Delete; something in me wants to say that a cable service slated to launch eight years from now doesn't quite add up… and while there apparently was a company called "MAS Cable TV" circa 1978 according to Google News' archive search, it actually served Montpelier, Ohio — not quite Malaysia. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 02:46, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
A cable company which already has its channel lineup and pricing structure in place, but isn't expected to actually launch for eight years hence, is clearly one of two things: either crystal balling, or an outright hoax. Either way, if there aren't reliable sources that can be added to attest to its existence, then delete with fire. Bearcat (talk) 18:18, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
