Bank, or </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>BNDES, is lining up a financing package of $20 billion for the </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>implementation of high definition television in Brazil over the next 10 </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>years, a top government official said Wednesday.</FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>According to Andre Barbosa Filho, a special secretary at Brazil's chief of </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>staff office, the program will be announced within the next 30 days. "This is a complete plan. It will even include cash flow financing," he </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>said during the Futurecom communications conference in the southern </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>Brazilian city of Florianopolis.</FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>The Brazilian government estimates the establishment of HDTV in Brazil will </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>attract investments of approximately $100 billion.</FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>On June 29, Brazil's government published a decree
authorizing the use of a </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>Japanese digital TV system with modifications to suit local needs. Brazilian officials will meet with Japanese government officials and </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>executives from Toshiba Corp. (6502.TO) in Brasilia on Oct. 10-12 to </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>discuss the implementation of the plan.</FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>The two parties will discuss investments in Brazil as part of HDTV </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>implementation, including the building of semiconductor factories. Barbosa said that while the government has been talking to Japanese </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>companies, other companies, such as Intel Corp. (INTC), have also shown an </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>interest in setting up plants.</FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>Brazil is just starting in the area of semiconductors, and the industry will continue to be dominated by Asian producers, he said.<SPAN class=390361319-06102006> </SPAN>"But we
may be able to establish an industry producing certain types of </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>chip, which could be exported," he added.</FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>The idea is to extend the modified version of the Japanese system across </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>Latin America, he said. Brazil's government was already in talks with its </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>Argentine counterparts over implementing the same system there, he said. The timetable for the implementation of the new system will be published </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>this week, said Marcelo Bechara, digital TV specialist at the </FONT><FONT face=Verdana>Communications Ministry.</FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>The system will be implemented in Sao Paulo first, with the launch set for </FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>December 2007, and spread over the rest of the country during the next </FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>seven years, he told the conference.</FONT></div> <div><FONT
face=Verdana>The high-definition televisions will be produced in the Amazon city of </FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>Manaus, where government incentives have prompted most electronic companies </FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>to set up shop.</FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>"It will be a race against time to be able to produce sets and get the </FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>technology ready ahead of the launch," said Benjamin Sicsu, vice president </FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Verdana>for Latin America at Samsung Corp.
