Well, finally, I manage to watch both BBC World and CNBC again. They were both taken off my cable TV ages ago. I had a lousy feed for CNBC that was almost unwatchable courtesy of the local CRAP cable company in this area of Tamsui. Anyway, Hinet recently started making it available on their Hichannel service in Taiwan. Boy, I’m lucky.

CNBC is quite informative at times, though a little repetitive, and a little shallow. It is much better watching than CNN which repeats the news six to ten times an hour. For business afficionados, it’s a must. Only available in Taiwan on Satellite (forget cable…:( ).
