Book review: Public Service Broadcasting in Asia: Surviving in the New Information Age

Asian Media Information and Communication Centre, (1999) Public Service Broadcasting in Asia: Surviving in the New Information Age, AMIC, Singapore, 168 pp. ISBN 9971 905 744 Reviewed by Pieter Wessels This is a compilation of mostly well-researched and referenced articles on public service broadcasting in Asia and crucial to any understanding of what is happening in the region. It covers Pakistan to the Philippines, Japan to Indonesia and most places in between. But more importantly it puts into print much of what has been said about public service broadcasting in recent years.
