Proposals for 麻豆官网首页入口 World Service Expansion

What impact could suggested proposals for new television and radio services in Russia, North Korea and the Middle East have for you?

Earlier this week the Director General of the 麻豆官网首页入口, Tony Hall, laid out his new vision for the corporation as a whole. His focus for the future of the 麻豆官网首页入口 World Service suggests prioritising investment and expansion into new territories. The plans include a satellite television service for Russian speakers, a daily radio news programme for North Korea, more localised content for Arabic speakers and extended digital services for India and Nigeria. Listeners from around the world explain how these plans will affect them. Rajan also hears from individual listeners with experience of the broadcast output in Russia and Korea. In addition, professor Gary Rawnsley from Aberystwyth University in the UK puts these proposals into context with the 麻豆官网首页入口 World Service鈥檚 international identity.

Plus, why a closer look at one Syrian refugee鈥檚 travels from her homeland to a new life in Sweden caused a split in audience opinion.
