Publik Khatulistiwa TV (lit. 'Equator Public TV', abbreviated as PKTV), is a local television station based in Bontang, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. It is owned by state-owned manufacturer of fertilizers Pupuk Kaltim, and it is one of two local TV channels that have broadcast in Bontang, the other one was the now-defunct LNGTV [id] (owned by Badak LNG), founded two years earlier in 1996.
History
PKTV, then known as Pupuk Kaltim TV,[3] was first started as a community TV station among Pupuk Kaltim employees[4] on 31 March 1998.[2] It was originally managed by Retina (production house owned by the Baiturrahman Foundation).[3] PKTV claims to be the first local TV station in Indonesia.[5]
PKTV was later transformed into its current form as a limited company, as PT Khatulistiwa Media, by notarial act no. 21 by J. Frans De Lannoy on 20 November 2001 and legalized a year later on 6 September 2002.[6] When it was in effect, its initial capital was only 80 million rupiahs, but PKTV had also absorbed the remaining assets of Retina, including broadcasting utilities.[3]
In 2010, PKTV, then part of City TV Network,[7] obtained broadcast rights for 2010–11 season of National Basketball Association and ASEAN Basketball League, along with Jak TV and 11 other local stations.[8] PKTV changed its logo on 2 April 2020.
