RTM TV Okey (stylised as OKeY, an acronym for Opportunity, Knowledge, Experience and Yours) is a Malaysian free-to-air television channel operated by Radio Televisyen Malaysia dedicated to and urban youths. It was launched on 21 March 2018 and airs programmes in English, Malay, and East Malaysian languages such as Bajaw language, Dusun language, Kadazan (Sabah) and Iban language (Sarawak).
Between 2006 and 2018, three test channels were launched by RTM as part of its Digital terrestrial television (DTT) broadcasting trial on selected households and pay television network Astro channel 180 RTMi, RTM Muzik Aktif (Active Music) and TVi (TV Interaktif/TV Interactive). RTMi was a channel that broadcast RTM1 and RTM2 programme previews for 5 hours daily from 7:00 p.m. until 12:00 a.m., RTM Muzik Aktif was a music channel that airs mainstream and independent Malaysian music as well as music-oriented programmes while TVi was a channel that promoted East Malaysian culture. There were plans in the early 2010s to launch separate focused television channels for Sabah and Sarawak by RTM, but eventually they were not realised. In Sarawak, however, the state television plan was later undertaken by Sarawak Media Group, which launched TVS on 11 October 2020.
TV Okey was launched on 21 March 2018 in the evening at Hilton Hotel in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah and officiated by the then-Prime Minister, Najib Razak. On 1 April 2019, TV Okey has started its HDTV broadcasting in conjunction with RTM's 73rd anniversary, and available exclusively through myFreeview DTT service on Channel 110. Beginning 6 April 2020, TV Pendidikan air on the channel daily under the Kelas@Rumah (Class@Home) programming, marking its return to RTM after 20 years.
