Broadcasters meet to discuss WRC-07 studies: ( 10 June 05 ) Sixty-five broadcasters and spectrum regulators are meeting in Kuala Lumpur to gather information on studies taking place around the world for the World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-07). The ABU Preparatory Seminar on WRC-07 started yesterday to assist broadcasters in their contribution to the development of their own national proposals for WRC-07. ABU Secretary-General David Astley said: "This seminar is another ABU initiative to represent the interests of our members in this important area." "Over the past years I have seen chief executives of our broadcaster members take personal interest in spectrum issues, as they have come to realise the seriousness of the spectrum crunch that we are facing and the impact that this will have on their future business plans." "They have realised that this is not just a technical issue, but a management issue as well," Mr Astley said. Fabio Leite, Deputy Director Radiocommunication Bureau, International Telecommunication Union, said in his keynote address: "The WRC process has evolved along the years. The process has been enormously benefited from the very effective regional preparation carried out by organisations like Inter-American Telecommunication Commission (CITEL), European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT), African Telecommunications Union, Asia Pacific Telecommunity (APT) and the ABU in the Asia-Pacific, and others." "Despite the inherent complexity of the WRC process, it has been responding effectively and in a timely way to the ITU membership needs." "The ABU, in organising this important seminar, gives an exemplary contribution to the preparatory phase, so crucial for a successful WRC process," Mr Leite added. The seminar will continue up to 11 June and is expected to produce reports on various issues for assisting broadcasters in pursuing WRC-07 related studies. (ABU Website)
