History
[edit]Regional Channel
The predecessor of VTV Cần Thơ is Cần Thơ Television Station, established on December 3, 1966. This is the second television station in Vietnam after Saigon Television Station established in 1965. At first, Cần Thơ Station was broadcast via an airplane broadcasting system like Saigon Television Station, until November 11, 1968, it officially broadcast on frequency band 7.
After the reunification of Vietnam, Cần Thơ Television Station quickly went into operation to promptly meet the audiovisual and cultural needs of the people in the Mekong Delta. The technical staff and engineers of Can Tho Television Station at that time started to design and convert the broadcasting system and central equipment from the FCC system left by the Republic of Vietnam regime to the OIRT system. The Military Region 9 Information Regiment supported electronic components to design mobile recording boats and mobile recording vehicles to help the unit. After that, the technical staff of the Station continued to design and convert from the OIRT system to SECAM III B color broadcasting and to the PAL - DK system, the equipment also gradually switched to UMATIC and BETACAM broadcasting systems.
In 1980, television in Cần Thơ had 2 broadcasting channels: channel 11 VHF and channel 6 VHF.
In 1983-1984, Cần Thơ Television sent staff and engineers to help Cambodia establish the National Television Station, build a system from the center to the broadcasting station and take charge of training technical staff and reporters. In 1984, Can Tho Television also helped Da Nang Television switch from OIRT to SECAM III B broadcasting. During these years, radio and television stations in the southwestern provinces also began to take shape. Can Tho Television also sent a team of technical staff to help local stations install central equipment, transmitters and help train a team of reporters, editors, etc.
In 1992, Can Tho Television Station became a regional television station under Vietnam Television and broadcast on channel 6, with the initial logo being THCT, then CTV since 1997. At the end of 2003, Can Tho Television Station moved its headquarters to No. 215 (now No. 407), 30/4 Street, Ninh Kieu District, Can Tho City.[b] On January 1, 2004, Cần Thơ Television Station had a new name: Vietnam Television Center in Cần Thơ City, with the logo CVTV.
On September 1, 2004, CVTV2 channel was officially launched to serve the Khmer ethnic community living in the Southwest region, with a duration of 18 hours. This channel also broadcasts general programs like CVTV1, but devotes part of its time to broadcasting Khmer programs.[4][5][6]
In 2010, VTV Cần Thơ changed the frequency and transmitter of CVTV1 channel from channel 6 VHF to channel 49 UHF.
On June 5, 2011, CVTV changed its identity to VTV Cần Thơ. Channels CVTV1 and CVTV2 were also renamed VTV Cần Thơ 1 and 2, respectively. By 2013, VTV Cần Thơ 1 channel had its broadcasting time increased to 24/7.
On January 1, 2016, implementing the National Press Plan, the national television channel of the Southern region - VTV9 was formed on the basis of merging VTV Cần Thơ 1 channel with VTV9 region, while VTV Cần Thơ 2 was converted to VTV5 Tây Nam Bộ channel, serving the spiritual life of the Khmer ethnic community in Vietnam.

In which, the VTV Center in the Southwest region is responsible for producing programs for VTV Cần Thơ channel and other VTV channels.[7] On October 6, 2022, the Ministry of Information and Communications licensed Vietnam Television to produce a national television channel in the Mekong Delta called VTV Cần Thơ.[8]
