It is the only TV network to offer Mandarin-language news programs in Indonesia and no soap opera, although it had broadcast entertainment and multicultural programs such as the now-defunct tech show e-Lifestyle, the satirical news and current affairs show Republik Mimpi (The Dream Republic), musical programming such as Musik+ and Idenesia, and other special or regional programming. Metro TV is considered to be the mouthpiece of Nasdem Party.[4]
