The new Syrian Channel will cover the Syria political life in addition to Arabic one .Sports and varieties will be in its intersest. Syria is lacking to a good coverage to its social and political liffe due to the weakness of the official media which is controlled by Syrian governmen , so this channel may bridge the gap between the people and the Syrian media.
