ATV lays off assistant controller PR

HONG KONG - Janet Lam (pictured), assistant controller of Asia Television (ATV)'s Public Relations and Publicity Department, has been laid off by the troubled station, effective immediately.

Lam has been in the role for 16 months. “It was so sudden. I just received the termination letter from the Personnel Department citing ‘saving finances’ as the reason for the termination,” Lam said.

Three junior staff at the Public Relations & Publicity Department of ATV have already been laid off in recent months. There are only four personnel left in the department.

ATV laid off 207 members of staff on February 12, in a ‘one-off’ downsizing arrangement.
