Nusa Dua (Antara Bali) - Indonesian Radio Station (RRI) and Private
Radio Institution are promoting radio digitalization in Indonesia to
meet people`s needs for information and respond to technological
development.
"The government should pay more attention to radio digitalization,"
RRI President Director Mohammad Rohanudin said at the 53rd Asia Pacific
Broadcasting Union (ABU) meeting here on Thursday.
According to him, Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) was one of the main topics discussed in the meeting.
A number of countries around the world, including Malaysia, India,
Saudi Arabia, Australia and Middle East countries, have gone the digital
radio way and are heading towards implementing DRM.
Digital radio, Rohanudin added, provides high quality audio and
makes operations efficient for broadcasters as one frequency can be held
by three or more radio stations.
However, until now, Indonesia does not have digital receivers nor has it regulations in place regarding digital radio.
Meanwhile, Suara Surya, CEO of Errol Jonathan, said broadcasters,
including radio stations, should adapt to the current technological
developments.
It is time for Indonesia to move from analogue radio to digital
radio by implementing modern technology which provides high quality
broadcasting, he stressed. (WDY)
