The jubilee celebration on 16 April will be preceded by a symposium on 15 April. Radio producers, programmers and other invited professionals will share their experiences and insights on the theme “Catholic Radio Broadcasting in Asia.”
The jubilee celebration proper on 16 April stands under the heading “Crossing Borders, Sharing Christ.” It will be opened by Archbishop Claudio Ma. Celli, president of the Pontifical Council for Social Communications in the Vatican, who will give the keynote address. This will be followed by greetings and reflections from the Apostolic Nuncio in the Philippines, Archbishop Joseph Edward Adams, and other Church and secular authorities.
Radio Veritas Asia operates in the responsibility of the “Federation of Asian Bishops’ Conferences” (FABC). It broadcasts in 15 different Asian languages via shortwave. Some programmes are also available via the Internet. The studios of RVA are in Quezon City, Metro Manila; whereas the transmitter site is in Palauig, Zambales, some 230 km north-west of Manila. Major parts of the programmes are produced in the local target areas, wherever this is possible.
