Early of 2010's, Astro Radio had expanded its coverage in Miri, Sarawak with My FM, Hitz FM, Sinar FM, Mix FM and Era FM, then after Melody FM launched in 2012, Mix FM Miri frequency slot was taken over by Melody FM.
Currently, Astro radio stations already broadcast in Kuching and Miri of Sarawak (except Lite FM and Mix FM in Miri).
In my opinion, Astro can launch its radio stations in Sarawak's 3rd largest city, known as Sibu.
There is no coverage of Astro radio stations in Sibu yet.
Astro can launch My FM, Hitz FM, Lite FM, Sinar FM, Melody FM and Era FM in Sibu. With this suggestion, Astro can gain more listeners in Sarawak and "drag" listeners from other radio stations.
About the transmission site of Sibu, Bukit Lima is the suitable site. I had studied about Bukit Singgalang, but the site does not give better coverage in Sibu. Bukit Singgalang covers Setapong Sarawak, a rural area of Sibu Divison. Bukit Lima has higher commercial value than Bukit Singgalang as many people in Sibu town listen to the radio. Bukit Lima is located in Sibu town.
