CRI – China teams up with Philippines on Content and Training

The Philippines’ Presidential Communications Office (PCO) and China Radio International (CRI) have recently signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) to hold training sessions and to share content.

The PCO, together with Philippine Information Agency (PIA), People’s Television (PTV4), Philippine Broadcasting Service (PBS-Radyo ng Bayan) and the Philippine News Agency (PNA), agreed with CRI to enhance friendship and understanding between the two countries through collaboration in news and information dissemination.

The MOA includes two main agreements. The first is a visiting mechanism and staff exchange where Filipino staff and journalists of the PCO and its partner agencies, and CRI will have visiting privileges and a chance to be employed in either of the host countries.

The second is a programme of cooperation between the two parties in the free use of copyrighted news, articles, radio and audiovisual products and materials in both Filipino and English languages. (Asia Radio Today)
