Foxcrime wave spreads to Indonesia

HONG KONG – Indonesian pay-TV operator Indovision has added Foxcrime to its bouquet of channels.

The net, operated by Fox Int'l Channels, will launch with Bahasa Indonesia sub-titles on blockbuster shows including "Masterminds," "Body of Evidence," "C.S.I. Miami," "C.S.I.," "Texas S.W.A.T.," "Kojak" "NYPD Blue," "The Practice" and "COPS S8." From June the entire net will become a 24-hour Bahasa Indonesia-subtitled channel.

Foxcrime, which is also seen in Europe, launched in Asia in September 2006 and is now available in Singapore, Hong Kong and Philippines.

"This channel is a sure recipe to fulfill the curiosity of the audience. Foxcrime dramatizes and illustrates scheming minds behind the most shocking crimes ever committed," Handhi S. Kentjono, VP and director of Indovision. "The best way to avoid being a victim of crime, is to understand the mindset of a criminal."
