What is your source for the Radio Dabanga story? Contrary to your headline, the
transcript says it is Sudan launching the stations AGAINST Radio Dabanga. I`d
be surprised if they are really on SW instead of FM. 73, Glenn Hauser
TRANSCRIPT:
Coming January, Sudan will launch ten shortwave radio stations in Darfur, and
ten in South Kordofan
The new radio stations will present programmes in local dialects, to counter
the broadcasts by Radio Dabanga, in an attempt to reduce its impact on the
populations of those regions, especially in Darfur, Information Minister Ahmed
Bilal Osman told Members of the national Parliament on Tuesday.
As for South Kordofan, the radio stations will aim to reach the Nuba people
living in the rebel-controlled areas, the minister noted.
Sudanese MPs have criticised the performance of the official media before. They
described it as “weak, and failing in the delivery of information”. On Tuesday,
25 November, the daily broadcasts by Radio Dabanga from the Netherlands were
discussed in the parliament. Some MPs stressed the need “to disrupt the
activity of Radio Dabanga, or completely stop it”, and demanded from the
Information Minister of State to develop a plan to at least reduce its impact.
Radio Dabanga broadcasts in shortwave to the whole of Sudan and neighbouring
countries. Satellite broadcasts are confined to the larger cities.
