CCTV-9 "Documentary" program Producer Pang Xinhua, Anchor Zhao Bin, and Editor Wang Xinyu traveled to Pakistan during China's National Day holidays, taking with them seven of CCTV's best programs on topics including history, women and children and tourism. The documentaries were shown on PTV in celebration of "Chinese TV Week".
As well as English, CCTV programs were also introduced by PTV in Urdu, Pakistan's other official language. It is the mother tongue of about 10 million people and is spoken fluently as a second language by perhaps 80 million more. The programs were aired from Oct. 1-7 on PTV during prime time. The programs were warmly received by the public.
Last August, to celebrate Pakistan's National Day (August 14), Sohab Mushtaq from Pakistan's PTV was invited to Beijing, bringing some of PTV's best programs to be aired on CCTV-9.
