‘its ok to be young forever’

okto telecasts from 9 am to 12 midnight daily and offers 105 hours of programming each week. okto is predominantly an English channel with selected programmes broadcast in the language of the country of origin, such as Filmart which showcases critically-acclaimed films from around the world in its original language. okto will retain the essence and strength of Kids and Arts Central’s programming. With the increased hours, the channel broadens the scope of these 2 channels by including more engaging content for our viewers.

The channel has a special focus on the kids and arts communities, and on User Generated Content (UGC). Viewers can send their clips which can be shown on the channel’s UGC belt named oktobite. This belt has a dedicated timeslot of five times a day. One of the first UGC initiatives on okto will showcase the involvement of students from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts who have been chosen to create a series of channel idents for okto.

The young ones will find the okto website buzzing with programme information, interactive games, contests, chats and more on oktoday.sg, while the adults will also be equally entertained on the website designed specially for them, oktonite.sg.
