IKIM FM can enter Brunei market by launching Bukit Mas transmitter in Limbang, Sarawak.

 

At current moment, IKIM FM can be tuned in Western Brunei such as Kuala Belait and Seria on Miri frequency FM 104.0MHz from Tanjung Lobang, Sarawak.

In fact, as Brunei capital city, Bandar Seri Begawan can receive Malaysia radio stations from Limbang (Bukit Mas), Sarawak. In addition, Brunei is a Muslim majority country in South East Asia. From my view, there is a potential market for IKIM FM in Brunei.

To reach Brunei listeners, IKIM FM can launch a transmitter in Bukit Mas, Limbang, Sarawak to cover Brunei (Bandar Seri Begawan). If IKIM FM expands its coverage to Limbang, Sarawak (thus mainly for Brunei), I believe there is a new competition of Islamic radio stations between Malaysia and Brunei.

In Brunei, currently there are two Islamic radio stations, such as RTB Nur Islam (FM 93.3MHz Bandar Seri Begawan) and Al-Quran Radio FM 89.1MHz. IKIM FM can compete against them with having Limbang frequency.

Apart of it, I love to scan vacant frequencies at the same time. Here's my personal proposed parameter:

==IKIM FM Limbang frequency==

* Frequency: FM 105.6MHz or FM 106.4MHz

* Power: 2kW

* Transmitter site: Bukit Mas, Limbang, Sarawak

* Targeting locations:

- Sarawak: Limbang, and Lawas

- Sabah: Sindumin

- Brunei: Bandar Seri Begawan

- Part of Labuan

As a result, with Limbang frequency, Brunei gets covered by IKIM FM transmission with two frequencies from Miri and Limbang of Sarawak.
