Fiji signals it may switch Radio Australia back on
Andy Sennit reports on the Media Network that Radio Australia may broadcast again from Fiji.
Fiji’s coup-installed military government has signalled it is looking at allowing Radio Australia to broadcast inside the country again.
Power to the two transmitters, one in Nadi and the other in Suva, was switched off by the interim government in 2009, three years after the 2006 coup led by military commander Frank Bainimarama. But Fiji’s permanent secretary of information, Sharon Smith Johns told Pacific Beat’s Geraldine Coutts this morning that she is looking at reversing the policy.
