SINGAPORE/TAIPEI: The pay-TV channel HITS has secured carriage with the Taiwanese operator China Network Systems (CNS).

HITS will be added to CNS's basic tier and available in HD by the end of 2015. The channel will be subtitled in Traditional Chinese. The channel is fresh off the heels of launching in Thailand.

Avi Himatsinghani, the CEO of Rewind Networks, said, “We’re excited that Taiwanese audiences will now get a chance to enjoy watching our awesome HITS! I’m delighted to launch HITS with an important partner like CNS and establish a strong foothold in an ever-developing market like Taiwan.”

Tommy Lin, the chief business officer of China Network Systems, added, “As the dominant MSO (Multi-Systems Operator) in Taiwan, we are committed to providing the very best experience to our subscribers. There are so many shows on HITS that Taiwanese people are sure to love watching again—especially my personal favorites—MacGyver and The A-Team! The variety of programming available on HITS is sure to appeal to a very wide audience and the channel will be a great addition to our basic lineup.”
