(Suggestion) Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI) can launch Chinese radio station as PRO-6, broadcast in Mandarin, Hokkien, Cantonese and Hakka.


Currently Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI) has 6 stations in different format such as:


* PRO-1: Regional radio

* PRO-2: Young oriented radio station

* PRO-3: News, current affairs and talk

* PRO-4: Cultural radio stations in several cities

* PRO-5: Music radio stations, available in Makassar and Surabaya

* Voice of Indonesia: External radio station 


Chinese is 15th largest ethnicity in Indonesia. 


In Indonesia, there are few Chinese radio stations operated by commercial broadcasters, but available in Chinese areas. 


Radio Republik Indonesia can launch Chinese radio station as PRO-6 via FM radio platform to target Chinese listeners in several cities such as:


1. Jakarta

2. Medan (North Sumatra province)

3. Pekanbaru (Riau province)

4. Bandung (West Java province)

5. Surabaya (East Java province)

6. Palembang (South Sumatra province)

7. Pangkalpinang (Bangka Belintung Islands province)

8. Semarang (Central Java province)


Broadcast in Chinese Mandarin and the dialects such as Hokkien, Cantonese and Hakka. RRI PRO-6 can air Mandarin program from Voice of Indonesia (VOI) to target Indonesia Chinese.


Same as PRO-3, RRI PRO-6 Chinese radio station broadcasts from Jakarta, and relays in other Chinese cities such as Medan, Pekanbaru, Bandung, Surabaya, Palembang, Pangkalpinang and Semarang by adding local repeaters.


In terms of coverage, Radio Republik Indonesia PRO-6 (Chinese radio station) could be same as PRO-4 and PRO-5 as it does not broadcast in every locations of the country because PRO-6 will focus only the cities where have more Chinese.


==Suggestion of Radio Republik Indonesia RRI PRO-6==

* Format: Chinese radio station

* Language: Mandarin, Hokkien, Hakka, Teochew and Cantonese

* Coverage: Jakarta, Medan, Pekanbaru, Bandung, Surabaya, Palembang, Pangkalpinang and Semarang

* Platform: FM radio frequency transmission and online streaming (for outside broadcast coverage)
