History

The channel was conceived in 2003 by Ismaila Sidibé, who in 1993 was granted the access to relay TV5 into Mali and founded MMDS operator Multicanal in 1995. The philosophy was based on his existing relays of foreign channels, in order to democratize access to information to lower-end Malians.
