Myawaddy TV (Burmese: မြဝတီ ရုပ်မြင်သံကြား, abbreviated as MWD) is a military-owned television network in Myanmar, based in Yangon and Naypyidaw.
Myawaddy TV has been widely criticized for broadcasting pro-SAC (State Administration Council) news.
Myawaddy TV was launched on 27 March 1995 to commemorate Myanmar's Armed Forces Day, marking the 50th anniversary of its founding.
