Lao National Television

Lao National Television (officially abbreviated as TNL LNTV, Lao: ໂທລະພາບແຫ່ງຊາດລາວ (ສທລ) (ທຊລ), romanizedTholaphap Haeng Xat Lao) is the national television station of the country of Laos. It is divided into 2 television channels, LNTV1 and LNTV3. The network's logo is based on the national symbol – Pha That Luang. LNTV has broadcast in English, French, Khmu and Lao languages.

Long before the creation of LNTV, Laotians had access to overspill television signals from neighboring Thailand.

Lao National Television was established and began broadcasting television programs on December 1, 1983. At that time, the television station carried out pilot broadcasts twice a week, and later gradually increased the broadcast time.

At the beginning of its operations, LNTV broadcast only in Vientiane with Soviet support. Resources to operate the station were poor, coupled by the country's geographic and economical problems, with a small number of viewers having access to the channel and its schedule lasted for an average of two to three hours per evening.

Work for new facilities began on January 12, 2001, with assistance from Vietnam Television.

On September 2, 2015, Lao National Television signed a new cooperation agreement with Vietnam Television, and Lao National Television started producing and broadcasting Vietnamese-language news programs

In September 2019, with the aid of China, LNTV Channel 3 was upgraded from standard definition to high definition.
