The chairman of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) says its "must have" and "must carry" rules need to be amended to be more practical following the World Cup fiasco.
The must have rule requires companies holding broadcast rights for seven sporting events, including the World Cup, to allow the programming to air on free TV. The must carry rule requires the programmes aired on free TV to be broadcast on any platform without conditions, including internet protocol TV (IPTV).
