Voice of America has boosted its radio broadcasts into North Korea this year
by transmitting from Seoul with support from a South Korean president who
has taken a hard-line stance against the reclusive communist regime.
President Lee Myung-bak's administration is allowing the U.S.
government-funded broadcaster to use transmission equipment in South Korea
to send its dispatches into the North for the first time since the 1970s.
That makes the signal much clearer than VOA's long-running shortwave
broadcasts from far-flung stations in the Philippines, Thailand and the
South Pacific island of Saipan. Moreover, it's an AM signal, so listening in
doesn't require a shortwave radio.
"Radio can play a big role in changing people," said Kim Dae-sung, who fled
the North in 2000 and is now a reporter at Free North Korea Radio, a
shortwave radio broadcaster in Seoul. "Even if it's simply news, it's
something that North Koreans have never heard of."
Still, the move could be seen as yet more provocative policymaking by a
government already at loggerheads with the North over Lee's tough policy on
Pyongyang, and comes at a time of heightened regional tensions over North
Korea's plans to launch a rocket early next month. Nuclear envoys from South
Korea and Japan flew to Washington for talks Friday with top U.S. diplomats
about North Korea.
"North Korea will see this as meaning that the South's government is trying
to overthrow the regime by uniting strength with U.S. hard-liners," said
Paik Hak-soon, an analyst at the private Sejong Institute think tank outside
Seoul.
Information control buttresses North Korea's autocratic rule. Radios in the
country come with prefixed channels that receive only government signals
brimming with propaganda and praise for leader Kim Jong Il.
But some listen to outside broadcasts using radios smuggled in from China or
by removing the frequency jammers on their state-issued radios, despite the
risk of harsh punishment, including incarceration in North Korea's
notoriously grim political prison camps.
VOA, founded in 1942 with a broadcast in German, now has programs in 45
languages. During the Cold War, it targeted listeners in totalitarian
states. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, it has focused on countries
where radio and TV news is government-controlled and outside news sources
are banned.
Since Jan. 1, VOA has been using the antenna facilities of the Far East
Broadcasting Company-Korea, a Christian evangelical radio station, for half
of its three-hour nighttime broadcast into the North. The antenna is only 40
miles (65 kilometers) from the border.
"I think it's getting deeper into the North in better quality," said Park
Se-kyung, head of the Northeast Asian Broadcasting Institute, an association
of radio experts monitoring broadcasts in the region.
The broadcast is mainly news, with a focus on North Korea, such as its
ongoing nuclear standoff with the United States and other nations.
South Korea prohibited VOA from broadcasting from its soil for carrying a
1973 report on the kidnapping of Kim Dae-jung, then a leading South Korean
dissident. The authoritarian Seoul government at the time is widely believed
to have been behind the abduction.
Upon becoming president of democratic South Korea in 1998, Kim ushered in a
"sunshine policy" toward the North that called for cooperation and
engagement. The warming of relations won him the Nobel Peace Prize.
But President Lee has taken a far tougher line on North Korea since taking
office in February 2008, a stance that has opened the way for VOA to resume
transmissions from the South.
Some radio experts say VOA's arrangement with the Christian station violates
a South Korean ban on broadcasters relaying foreign signals.
But Kim Jung-tae, an official with the Korea Communications Commission,
justifies his agency's decision to allow the VOA broadcast on the grounds
that local networks are allowed to fill up to 20 percent of their airtime
with foreign programming.
Joan Mower, VOA's public relations director in Washington, D.C., described
the project as "a routine arrangement, similar to thousands of other
arrangements VOA has worldwide."
Broadcasting via South Korea helps VOA "expand its reach to audiences inside
North Korea," she said by e-mail.
Reporters Without Borders announced this week that the France-based media
watchdog group and the European Union will support three Seoul-based radio
stations targeting North Korea, including Free North Korea Radio, with about
400 million won ($290,000).
"These radios are one of the few hopes to create a real evolution in the
country. Without that, the North Koreans don't know what is going on in the
world and they don't know even what is going on in their own country," said
Vincent Brossel of Reporters Without Borders.
North Korea condemns such broadcasts as "U.S. psychological warfare" and
often jams the signals. So far, it has not interfered with VOA's new AM
broadcast, said radio expert Park. Doing so requires more equipment than
blocking shortwave signals, and the fact that North Korea isn't doing so may
indicate the North is struggling economically, he said.
Park said he supports the broadcasts.
"North Korean people have the right to information," he said. "Providing
correct information to people in a closed nation is what democratic nations
should do."
Associated Press writer Kwang-tae Kim contributed to this report.

Pursuing the task to educate, entertain and inform the public about policies
of democratic government, Radio Pakistan during last one year has brought
them in stream on all major issues and accommodated their aspirations on
major national and international issues.
This medium of information round-the-clock accorded extensive coverage to
the initiatives of present government and helped foster its policies to
develop the social and economic sectors and its resolve to improve the
condition of the commonman in its national and regional programmes.
According to information, the PPP led coalition has completed its first year
in government and during the period Radio Pakistan highlighted its various
initiatives such as 100 days programmes, energy saving campaign, measures to
overcome the food crisis, expansion of utility stores network and
facilities, improvement in law and order situation and war against
terrorism.
The role of Radio Pakistan in highlighting the steps taken by the government
to ensure freedom of electronic and print media, stability of democracy,
creating harmony among the provinces, strengthening of the institutions,
achievement in Foreign Policy and Prime Minister?s visits abroad also
commendable.
Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani unveiled his 100 days plan in the
parliament, focusing on giving immediate relief to people for food,
electricity and water etc. Radio Pakistan highlighted these priorities of
the government in its national and regional programmes.
The wave of terrorism also got special attention in the programmes broadcast
to draw the attention of the listeners towards this menace and to counter it
with courage.
PBC?s religious service also contributed a lot to educate the people on the
true spirit of Islam, the importance of moderation and enlightenment.
During the year, special attention to the youth community was another factor
amongst the broad-based activities to educate and attract this vital element
in the fold of national development and their responsibilities as the true
heirs of the country.
The importance of women folk, their role in the society and the development
activities of the countries, in line with the policy of the government, was
also of prime focus in programmes broadcast for this section of the society.
During the period, role played by the government to improve lot of women,
youth, peasants and labourers was vigorously portrayed in different
programmes meant for those vital segments of the society.
PBC also presented programmes for overseas Pakistanis in its world service
and for listeners in other countries on implementation of government
policies and dissemination of information and projection of image of the
country.
An exclusive current affairs channel, national broadcasting service,
operating 17 hours daily to inform the masses on current affairs situation
was also inaugurated. PBC also arranged Station Directors? Conference which
reviewed the entire programming of the corporation and approved a new
community broadcasting vision.
During the period, Radio Pakistan gave equal opportunity to government and
opposition leaders to present their point of views on different issues. PBC
also started a five minutes local Sindhi bulletin from Larkana.
The news Wing of PBC is putting on air 120 news bulletins daily in National,
Regional, and External, Sports, Business, Weather, District and Local News
areas. PBC News also projected the social welfare schemes of PPP led
government including Benazir Income Support Programme and other development
projects.
A new 100 KW short wave transmitter has been installed and commissioned at
Rawat, Islamabad to augment World & External services of PBC targeted to
various regions of the world.
An FM radio station has been commissioned at Bhit Shah, Sindh and put on air
to provide community broadcast services in the town.
Five major stations including National Broadcasting House, Islamabad,
Lahore, Karachi, Peshawar and Quetta have been connected through Intranet
system to ensure audio and text file sharing.
A computerized remote access system has been evolved for the first time ever
by PBC engineers by which the FM transmitter housed at the rooftop of
National Broadcasting House (NBH), Islamabad is being remotely controlled
and monitored from the Master Control Room housed in the studio area at the
basement of the building. (by Associated Press in Pakistan)

Peru, 6019.40, Radio Victoria, 0940-1000, Noted a program of
religious comments in the Spanish Language by a male. This is the usual
preacher who has a tendency to "plead" in his tonal presentation. Using
"LSB" mode to clean up the signal from a Het
on 6020 KHz. Signal was fair until the hour when QRM blocked it.
(Chuck Bolland, March 28, 2009)
Peru, 4774.96, Radio Tarma, 1030-1040 Noted a threshold signal
here under CODAR with music. At about 1035, the signal began to
fade in better for a second or two, then drop back down. By 1037,
the signal was solid and starting to creep towards a fair level.
(Chuck Bolland, March 28, 2009)
Peru, 4826.50, Radio Sicuani, 1040-1045 Noted a male and female in Spanish
language comments. Judging from the tone, believe they were sharing the
news. At 1043 canned promos. Signal was actually fair to good this morning.

Bolivia, 6134.77, Radio Santa Cruz, 2330-2345, Even though the
preceding time says 2330 UTC, I've been sitting on 6134.77 KHz
for almost 15 minutes prior. The signal however, just started to fade
in at a threshold level and by 2333 what already at a poor level.
Noted a lot of loud and excitable Spanish talk by a male which
I believe was a description of a soccer game. Unfortunately, the
signal did not improve beyond the poor level. Checked back at
0150 and signal had improved to a fair with a male in Spanish
language comments. (Chuck Bolland, March 28/29, 2009)
Czech Republic, 5930, Radio Prague, 2323-2355 Noted a male
in English language comments explaining a few aspects of the Czech
Society. He gives URL with ID. At 2345, the male discusses
Radio Prague and Radio Liberty and a woman who worked for
both back in the 60's is interviewed. Signal was fair. (Chuck
Bolland, March 28, 2009)
Unid, 4979.95, 0012-0030 Initially noted a female in comments.
Heard a male in there commenting too. At 0022 possibly Latin American
music presented briefly (only a couple of bars) then
a female comments. Nothing else by 0051. Signal never improved
enough to glean other details and was dropped. (Chuck Bolland March 29,
2009)
Bolivia, 4716.67, Radio Yura, 0050-0100 At tune in, noted just
singing by a female. At 0056 a male comments with a child in
Spanish. Difficult to get the drift of a conversation with the static
crashes wiping out the signal every few milliseconds. At 0103
music heard. Signal was threshold. Rechecked at 0145 and
noted a fair signal from Yura. So condx are improving tonight.
(Chuck Bolland, March 29, 2009)
Peru, 4826.46, Radio Sicuani, 0105-0115, With a male in Spanish language
comments. He may be talking politics indicated by the tone of his words.
At 0110 signal disappears for a couple of minutes, but is back by 0112.
Maybe the transmitter dropped of the air? Anyway the man continues to
talk. Signal was poor. (Chuck Bolland, March 29, 2009)
Bolivia, 3310, Radio Mosoj Chaski, 0120-0145 Notice a male and female
talking together in Spanish. The female doing most of the talking however.
Later a discussion with a telephone caller is conducted. At 0129, music.
Signal was fair to good when I tuned away at 0145. (Chuck Bolland, March
29, 2009)
