Some advice for the Broadcast Authority
Dear Editor,
The government has appointed a Broadcast Authority under the chairmanship of Ms Bibi Shadick.
To date, the Authority has not been reported in the media as having done anything.
Could the Authority immediately get in touch with the radio stations and require them to have the following defects rectified:
(1)The station should publish its daily programme schedule in the print media and stick to it. Programes are dropped without warning or are moved willy-nilly everywhere without any explanation or apology.
(2)The BBC re-broadcast which comes on at midnight is sometimes dropped without warning.
The news in particular could sometimes not be heard as either the technicians pre-record on a faulty tape or those catching the BBC did not do so with any skill.
(3)Have some care and knowledge brought to the presentation of the Sunday Concert Hall programe. This is one important programme which is often dropped or has its broadcast time changed without warning.
The programme needs to have a presenter who is acquainted with Classical Music and could identify and choose interesting music.
The above-mentioned faults could immediately be rectified and give the Broadcast Authority a good opportunity to show its mettle to the public.
