[HCDX] Radio Slovakia International to leave Shortwave



Radio Slovakia International to leave Shortwave:

The Radio Council approved the new organisational structure of the public 
broadcaster. The transformation of Radio Slovakia International was a part 
of the Wednesday discussion on the proposal of new General Director 
Miloslava Zemkova.
According to the approved document, Radio Slovakia International should 
cease its shortwave broadcast as of June 30. The transformation of the 
shortwave broadcast to a part of the Internet service of the public radio 
will follow shortly after. Apart from the Internet, the program of Radio 
Slovakia International will continue to be broadcast via satellite. The 
transformation process counts on redundancies. Instead of a staff of 4, the 
program of each language section will be secured by 2 editors.
The discussion on the future of Radio Slovakia International included 
contributions by several members of parliament as well as the RSI editor in 
chief Ladislav Kubis. According to Kubis, the suggested proposal will not 
secure quality standard broadcast of the foreign service of public radio as 
defined by law. Several members of Radio Council supported the arguments 
against the transformation. Nevertheless, this proposal was passed by a 
majority in the final vote. The existence of Radio Slovakia International 
is directed by the state. However, due to insufficient financial support, 
the Radio management transformed its existence.
