Indigenous stations merger to provide better coverage of regions

6 August 2016 – A number of Indigenous radio and television stations have merged their coverage into a single digital package, effectively ending the fragmented Indigenous networks available on the national radio, television and film networks.

Indigenous Radio Corporation of Australia’s (IRCA) new ‘Indigenous stations’, or ISCs, will combine their live TV and radio, including broadcast, and online broadcast services. With ISCs, stations can easily carry live content and on-demand online in a way that is not only affordable for small businesses, but also can be offered in multiple languages.

The merger will deliver the improved, on-demand coverage, as well as content from the same independent broadcasting and community groups, that would not have been available before.

The Government has set up a joint committee to consider the potential impact of a joint-ISC policy in the coming weeks.

The Government intends to ensure that Indigenous radio and television, which have been struggling to compete with other radio stations, receive the support, and the benefits, of full regional coverage, which they have long been missing.

Indigenous broadcaster ARZ has said the new joint-ISC policy is needed to enhance the regionalism and diversity of their broadcast services, by increasing their national content and providing online services.

This new digital package will cover all ISCs in Australia from 7 August 2016, and is the product of consultation with the Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and Torres Strait Islander, New Zealand-based indigenous stations.

The public will benefit from:

Increased regional coverage

Expanded national digital coverage

Online services on local news websites

More Indigenous stations across Australia

The government will commit $40 million in infrastructure investment to ensure that local broadcasters, including ARZ, continue to deliver excellent, and consistent, regional radio and television coverage.

Indigenous Radio and Television Corporation of Australia (IRCA) CEO Peter White said:

“We are taking some important steps forward in terms of creating regional ISCs for Indigenous broadcasters, providing regional-focused online services and p바카라규칙roviding enhanced regional and local di속초출장샵gital content. These are all vital steps to create stronger regional broadcasting and to help indigenous statio로투스 홀짝ns to continue to grow.”

China urged to improve trade practices in South Asia with India following a fresh attack on a Chinese shipping company by an Indian navy vessel last month.

China Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang said a formal visit by Chinese President Xi Jinping to India would be welcomed by Indians, adding that his visit could also lead to improving ties between their two nations.

“It is카지노 게임 not our purpose to discuss politic진주안마s. It is our intention to improve ties,” Lu said.

In a separate statement, the Indian Arm강남출장마사지y said it had killed an unidentified Chinese pirate off the country’s western coast on Tuesday evening.

China accuses India of illegally trading with India with the aim of getting India to adopt Chinese rules on trade.

The ministry of interior said the piracy happened off the northern coast of the Indian state of Assam on the south-western border with Myanmar, about 220 km (130 miles) to the north of Rangoon in Myanmar.

China and Myanmar have longstanding military ties but relations are tense as Myanmar was ruled for decades by the Chinese Communist Party and was a Chinese ally in East Asia.
