Saigon Broadcasting Television Network or [http://sbtn.net/Default.aspx SBTN] in short is the first 24-hour Vietnamese language channel geared towards the Vietnamese diaspora. It is currently available on many cable networks in the United States and Canada as well as through satellite dish DirectTV. The channel provides children, arts, entertainment, news programs produced primarily in complete Vietnamese. The shows are primarily produced at its headquarters in Garden Grove, California.

History

While several Vietnamese-geared channels and programs already existed in the early 2000, none of them had an around-the-clock program. SBN (Saigon Broadcasting Network) was created with Truc Ho and his friends to fill this gap and provide a full program with the lack of many Vietnamese ads that generally fill the Vietnamese TV space. Due to a trademark dispute, the channel's original name of SBN was changed to its current official name SBTN.
