VKH: well I would say that multi-media approach is adopted by almost all the radio stations. Because some of them have grown up with programmes they like, so they keep close contact with the programmes. And we have an increasingly numbers of audience, listeners who I would say are loyal to the programmes. And they have their loyal listeners, and this is happening even in China. VKH: Yes, if you pay attention to all those audience surveys, you would figure out that in some particular regions, and even in some developed countries, radios not dying at all. JB: And what about radio as a format in China, is it highly valued? We just do it as other public service, that we choose the stories important to cover. But all the editorial decisions are made by the media practitioners, and they don't intervene with our news. VKH: Well, like all the public service, we have funding. JB: How much of a role does the Chinese government play in the daily operations of CRI? But for all the stories that happen in this region, I would say that it comes to one that is very significant only. CRI is very interested in mapping the whole world, to all the audiences it can reach. But it wouldn't be possible for CRI to provide a specific service to targetting this audience. VKH: Yes, I would say, because anything which is significant that is interesting would be the content that CRI are interested in.

And we have talk shows which are called roundtable. We also have programmes about Chinese literature, telling it in a story-like way so people can understand what's happening. And also we have the language learning programmes to learn Chinese in an interesting way. This covers about social events and literature, music, film and things like that, and technology developments and stories of Chinese people, and foreigners living in China. Also we have feature programmes called Studio-Plus. ![]() ![]() So we have hourly news about what's happening in the world, what's happening in China, and what's happening in some English-speaking areas, regions.
