BHUTAN
6035, BBS (presumed), 1247, Dec 13. During the
year when I have checked here I found only PBS Yunnan in sole
possession, but thanks to the timely tip from Alokesh Gupta in
dxldyg, I heard assume BBS underneath Yunnan, which was in
Vietnamese with mostly monologues and very brief musical
pieces; with BBS mostly playing indigenous music with a few
announcements. 1300 Yunnan had their usual time pips and
ID in English ("This is the Voice of Shangri-La brought to you
by Yunnan Radio"); after that Yunnan went into talk in Chinese
and BBS also had talking; not possible to ID. Checked again
at 1400 looking for BBS to be there in English, but they must
have signed off early. Had no trace of BBS underneath Yunnan
which was back to Vietnamese. If BBS had been broadcasting
after 1400 believe I would have some hint of their presences,
but nothing but Yunnan. Once the AIR technician finishes up
testing the repaired BBS transmitter, I hope they will resume
their former 1500 sign off time; with 1400 to 1500 being in
English. Very nice to hear this one again! Brief MP3 audio at
http://www.box.com/s/st3vgkv7x696m1spv4hp .

Thanks to Victor Goonetilleke (Sri Lanka), who indicates BBS
signed off today between 1315 and 1320.

5030.03v, BBS, 1244-1500:44*, Dec 15. Decent
reception; an excellent frequency choice as it has been vacant
since Sarawak closed down in the middle of this year. Mostly
in what sounded like French although I thought I heard a
different dialect too? Slowly drifted down to 5030.0. Very nice!
Their external service? Played a lot of nice indigenous music!
1244-1330 on air phone calls.
1330-1359 cute on air phone calls from young children singing songs.
1400-1423 talking followed by indigenous music.
1500 - English "This is the new service of the Bhutan Broadcasting
Service" and shortly off.
MP3 edited audio in no particular chronological order, with ID in English
at 1:01 - http://www.box.com/s/jd191ljp5lruprrqorkr .

CHINA
5050, Beibu Bay Radio, random checking from 1311 to
1537, Dec 14. Unique format of long running bi-lingual drama in
Chinese and Vietnamese; by 1537 back to normal format of pops
songs and DJ in Vietnamese; moderate to strong AIR Aizawl QRM.
[Howard]
6035, PBS Yunnan/Voice of Shangri-La, 1256-1303, Dec 14. As
Alokesh Gupta (India) has already reported in dxldyg, BBS/Bhutan
was off the air today, so Yunnan again had sole possession here;
pips and ID in English at ToH. Subsequent check at 1403 also found
only Yunnan.
[Howard]
INDIA
4990, AIR Itanagar, randomly from 1332 to 1433*, Dec 14.
News in vernacular till 1336; into subcontinent music; 1415 local news
in Hindi followed by local news in English; Itanagar weather forecast
(rain) and max-min temperatures; followed by talk in English; poor with
persistent heavy CW QRM. Dec 13 till 1431*.
[Howard]
MALAYSIA
9835, Sarawak FM via RTM, via Kajang (near Kuala

Kebangsaan Malaysia); more pop songs; "Sarawak FM" singing
jingle; fair-good.
[Howard]
11665, Wai FM, via Kajang (near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia), 1539-1600,
Dec 14. In vernacular EZL pop songs; 1559 nice "Wai FM" singing jingle;

Don't let Voice of America broadcasts go static
Voice of America (VOA), the jewel in America's public diplomacy effort abroad, is set to be streamlined. Some programs can be downsized. But VOA is in the national interest, especially as Russia, China, and Iran expand state-supported media. Cuts should be handled with care.

Frequency for Human Rights!
By Mok Yong Jae
[2011-12-17 17:13 ]
http://www.dailynk.com/english/read.php?cataId=nk00100&num=8546
Calls have again been made for civilian short-wave broadcasters focusing on North Korea
issues to be allocated frequency in South Korea for the purpose of enhancing efforts to
improve North Korean human rights.
A senior researcher with the Hansun Foundation for Freedom and Happiness, Lee Young
Hwan told a conference for political, religious and other social organizations to discuss new
policies regarding North Korea, "We need to come up with a real plan regarding unification
and diplomacy that will actually do something for the human rights of our brethren in North
Korea."
Lee went on, "Those currently broadcasting on North Korean issues in this country have
never been assigned a frequency, and as such they rent frequency abroad," before
emphasising, "We need to make it so that these civilian broadcasters on North Korea actually
have a frequency to use."
He also spoke of the need to "Overcome difficulty and be patient in pursuing liberation of
broadcasting in both countries, and finding a route for the peoples of North and South Korea
alike to be able to freely listen to whichever broadcasts they choose."
The conference was attended by people from all sectors of society, including left- and right-
wing politicians, representatives of Christian and Buddhist groups and other social
organizations, all gathering together to discuss the direction of future unification policy.
The standing president of the KCRC, Kim Deok Ryong said in his opening address,
"Conservative and progressive sides of politics both have the same objectives when it comes
down to it. We are all here to search out a new paradigm for the continuing and forward-
looking direction of North Korea and unification policy through rational discussions and
debate."
Below is a summary of some of the other highlights of the conference.
? Choi Dae Seok (Chief Researcher, Institute for Unification Studies, Ehwa Women´s
University)
"A large problem is that the stance of principled engagement completely collapsed starting
with the Kim Dae Jung administration, while the current government has lost the momentum
created from several decades of policy through its overemphasis on unbending principles. In
creating a position of principled engagement, the most important thing is to balance what is in
the best interests of the Korean people with those of the state.
In the short term a stance of principled engagement means expanding inter-Korean
exchanges through humanitarian aid and other means, while in the medium to long-term we
must work to exert continuous pressure on the nuclear issue and other problems affecting
relations between our two countries."
? Park Joo Seon (Democratic Party National Assembly lawmaker)
"China has been consistent over the last ten years in its support for Korea´s `Sunshine Policy´
and policy of engagement towards North Korea. China´s support allowed South Korea to
wield further influence in the US-ROK alliance, relations with North Korea and at the Six Party
Talks. There is a need for a sophisticated and creative effort to convince China to support
our policy initiatives."
? In Myeong Jin (Priest, Galilee Church)
"The next two to three years are a crucial time in inter-Korean relations. For this reason the
Lee Myung Bak administration must work to establish an environment in which it can achieve
some sort of `grand bargain´ before it is too late. The environment could be created by
normalizing humanitarian aid, restarting tourism to Mt Geumgang and abolishing the May 24
Measure. If trust between the two Koreas can be built up through these initiatives a grand
bargain will be possible." Standard rig : ICOM R75 / 2x16 V / m@h40 heads Sennheiser
