Pheu Thai Party deputy spokesman Jirayu Huangsup said the Pheu Thai Party will launch a new satellite TV next week.
The new channel will be called Asia Update and will be beamed down from a transponder of a foreign-owned satellite.
Jirayu said the new channel will not have content similar to the PTV of the red-shirt people but it will focus on monitoring the works of the government.
Jirayu said he believed the content of the new satellite TV would not violate the emergency decree.
He said 40 per cent of the content would be about foreign affairs, 25 per cent about politics and the rest would be entertainment programmes.
Pheu Thai MPs Karun Hosakul and Anudis Nakhonthap will be among the programme hosts.
Jirayu said other programme hosts would come from the People's Channel or better known as PTV.
He said the station's management had yet to consult with Pheu Thai party-list MP Jatuporn Promphan as to whether he would host his Truth Today programme on the new satellite channel or not.
Jirayu said the station had been fully ready for the official launch as it has been on air on the trial basis from 7 pm to 8 pm for sometime.
He said the viewers would have to use C-band disc of PSI brand and the station would announce the frequency rate of the station for tuning the disc and receiver shortly before the launching date.
