Bulletin 53rd ABU GA

153rd Asia Pacific Broadcasting Union General Assembly

Broadcasters in Asia and around the world will see vibrant sports activities as numerous regional and international sports events such as the Asian games 2018, World Cup 2018, Commonwealth Games will take place in the coming years. These important sports events will be broadcasted nationally, region-ally and internationally. “Asia will be on the regional and international spotlights because some events such as the Asian Games 2018 will be held in Asia,” explained Javad Mottaghi, Secretary General of ABU, during the opening of the 59th Sports Conference and Related Meeting held at Westin Resort on Wednesday, October 19. “Asia has become the target

for Sports Federations because of its booming economy and a large num-ber of audience,” Mottaghi continued.Asia is home to 3.5 billion popula-tion, almost half of the world’s 7.5 billion popula-tion—a huge mar-keting target for Sports F e d e r a t i o n s . S p o r t s programs are usu-ally considered un-attractive. Broadcasters have to create unique and interesting sports pro-grams to attract larger number of au-dience and sponsors. These are some challenges any broadcaster is facing

when it comes to sports broadcasting. “You will hear during the next World Broadcasting Union (WBU) that will take place in Bali on October 26,

where other states unions will be here. There will be a session on sports in which Director General and Sec-retary General of other unions will also talk. You will see the challenges

we are facing in ABU are the same challenges that other unions are also facing, “ he said. Mottaghi further stated that all broadcasters should stick and get

together, then forming national pool. He said that there was no other way than forming it and staying united. “That is another proof for us to stick together-- national broad-casters and public service broadcast-ers and commercial networks in each country have to get together, to shake hand with each other and to form na-tional pool,” insisted Mottaghi. Separately, during sports group meeting on wednesday Cai Yanjiang, Director ABU Sports sug-gested a new initiative to create ABU Sports Prizes.

Members of Delegates from Malaysia are hoping that the Asia Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU) General Assembly (GA) 53rd 2016 will provide mutual benefits from co-laboration and contribution among its members, including resolving issues of broadcasting rights and improving the competencies of its members relat-ed to sports broadcasting area. Norliza Mohd Ali, TV Pro-gram Director of Radio Television Malaysia (RTM) representing Ma-laysia’s delegates said this event was higly anticipated to come up with broadest ideas and opportunities for the entire member countries. “This opportunity is ABU’s biggest event in this year in which we will know what kind of programs that will be delivered next year, especially for television. We can also see what types of new program to be raised, to be prepared, in the form of coopera-

tions. So, this is a platform to learn the activities to be implemented by ABU in the future,” said Norliza Mohd. Ali during an interview on Tuesday, Octo-ber 18, 2016.

She explained ABU GA has conducted 50 meetings with its members, and therefore they expect-ed there would be new programs that could be distributed from members or they could involved in it, with mutu-ally beneficial relationship to fellow members. Norliza said one of the urgent problems that need to be solved by all members was about broadcasting rights of a number of international sports events, including the Summer and Winter Olympics Games and the FIFA World Cup. “Well ABU, we hope, can buy the broadcasting rights of sports at a cheaper price. Broadcasting sports event rights is expensive. This broad-casting rights has become a business today. So, the price is too high,” said Norliza. “So, we as members are ex-pecting ABU can represent us in the

negotiations. Obtaining a cheap price, for the members, so we could receive benefit. This is important in sports broadcasting rights,” she added. She also expected this 53rd ABU GA meeting could implement various competency improvement programs for its members, includ-ing in sports television broadcasting technology, by providing necessary training. Norliza also hoped other ABU’s members could share their ex-periences and expertises in related to the preparations of sports broadcast-ing, from planning to execution in the field, particularly from NHK Japan and KBS South Korea which already had the same experiences of holding international sports broadcasts, the Olympics Games and the World Cup.

3 News Brief

ABU TIME FOR ACTION : LAUNCH OF ABU SPORT NETWORK

ABU Sports Cai Yanjiang and Chair-man of the Sport Group ABU Jiang Heping were present at the launching ceremony. The initiative is to encourage members to share and give access to wide range of content leading to di-verse, rich and vibrant television pro-gramming. “It is a very good move to all the members. I convince it will be successful. It just takes everybody to be seriously in taking it and contrib-ute. Not like other platforms, some

Internet Connection in every member country, Broadcasters have to conduct assessment in the form of workshops and trainings. Beniko said that there are two subjects discussed during the meeting-program activity and radio activity. Next year, he said, there would be workshops and trainings, which would be discussed in the Bali meeting. He hoped to attract more broadcasters to become members of ABU. By Cok Anggi

Initially, the platform will carry sports and entertainment news clips, to which members hold the rights to share and distribute. The platform is also aimed to offer a free content distribution system. It will in corporate file transfer facilities during major sporting events, where member can access daily highlights among others. The network will exchange programs and live stream in the fu-ture.

The utilization of technology and new media including social media are important to increase and to reach out to a larger number of listeners and viewers. Tatsuhiro Beniko, director program of ABU, said that he would like to obtain inputs from member countries about new media and social media. Beniko said he was aware that there were still gaps among member countries in terms of human resourc-es, skills, technological expertise and equipments and many other as-pects. He also liked to know about the

members only take, but they don’t contribute,” Director ABU Sports Cai Yanjiang commented on the launch of ABU Sport Network. It took more than two years for ABU Sport Group to establish ABU Sport Network. “It was very difficult to regulate all the countries, and the responses were also very slow. The members, they all needed to talk internally. And also it took time for technical providers to design the dig-ital platform. So it was not so easy,” Cai Yanjian explained.

ABU is taking an action to strengthen relationship and coopera-tion among ABU members by launch-ing ABU Sport Network. It’s a plat-form to share and to exchange audio video content on digital basis, related to sports and entertainment. Material shared and exchanged can be used in whole or part for news and program.

EMBRACING TECHNOLOGY AND NEW MEDIA

Media has crucial roles in raising awareness and in supporting people with disabilities. This may be the most important message Dan Buckingham wants to convey to the world. Dan has been working as the General Manager for Attitude, a TV Production Company in New Zealand. He produces a weekly TV series about people who live with disability as well as hosting a web platform called atti-tudelive.com.Dan is also a Paralympian, who won a gold medal in wheelchair rugby at the Athens 2004 Paralympics and placing 5th with the team at the Beijing 2008 Paralympics. During the 53rd Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU) General Assembly 2016 in Bali, Dan shared his inspiring stories and programs. At Attitude, Dan is focusing on content programs for people with disability.His professional career in TV broad-casting started when he experienced an accident 17 years ago. Born in In-

DAN BUCKINGHAM: INSPIRING DISABILITY ADVOCATE

Dan BuckinghamGeneral Manager for Attitude

vercargill, New Zealand, on Septem-ber 25, 1980, Dan is the youngest of three children In 1999 while attending Otago University, he sustained a frac-ture dislocation to his C6/7 vertebrae while playing club rugby, resulting in paralysis from the chest down, with some loss of function to his hands.He completed his rehabilitation at Burwood hospital, where he learned to use a manual wheelchair for mobil-ity. “With the company, there are few of us that live with disability. “I start from the other side of the cam-era as an athlete. The first big time I really took start of how much media can make with disabilities was when I went to the Athens Paralympics as part of the wheelchair team.” Dan also saw great supports from the New Zealand government for people with disabilities.His achievement as the gold medal winner has also increased his self –confidence. But that did not last long. Despite great professional achieve-ments, people with disabilities have to

show to the world about their accom-plishments. At that time, Dan realized the importance of media to spread the message and to raise awareness among people.Working at Attitude has made great changes for Dan. But, before joining Attitude, Dan admitted he felt so hes-itate. He was trapped between two choice of whether to continue his high learning education or to join Attitude. One of his friends encouraged him to join the Attitude to learn about media and to use media to increase people’s awareness. “What he said maybe not true for other lot of industry, but for media you just got to get it and do it and you learn so much on the job. I think that was a good advice that I took on board and juts got into the po-sition and really the learning escalate very quickly.” When he joined Attitude, Dan met with fellow workers with disabil-ities. He remembered there were 14 to 15 people with disabilities working for the station. Together, they have

been working very hard to produce programs for people with disabilities. They have also conducted various campaigns spreading strong messag-es that physical disabilities did not prevent them to achieve their dreams, to pursue education and professional lives. Dan expected that his pro-grams would attract more audience and would provide information to the audience about people with disabili-ties and their admiring lives and ac-tivities “Fundamentally we want to have more content about disability across the board from drama to sports to documentary, to life stories. I think the broader this picture comes the more people can identify what differ-ent parts of disability identifying the whole to a very minimum amount of content shown.” But, life is not always smooth and rosy. Dan has frequently faced so many obstacles and challenges. Fund-ing constraint is one of the challenges in creating programs for people with disabilities. Limited air times to run such program is another hindrance. Dan will never give up. Such a huge challenge will only push him forward to create more creative, in-spiring and informative programs to show to the world that people with disability have active and fulfilling lives.

Traditional media including radio and television are facing great pressures from the Internet-based me-dia and are struggling to find ways to cope with this fast-growing emerging media. “New media are developing very quickly and we should take a step to adopt the new technology,” ex-plained Jiang Heping, Deputy Direc-tor General of CCTV News Center, on the sideline of the 53rd Asia Pacif-ic Broadcasting General Assembly in Nusa Dua, Bali on Wednesday. Jiang went further that tradi-tional media should be more creative to face the rapid growth of new me-dia such as producing more interac-tive contents.“More interactive means more engaging with our viewers, lis-teners as well as with our clients. By doing so, radio and tele-vision can still grow together,” add-ed Jiang, who is also managing the CCTV’s foreign language channel.

Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB+)

RRI trialed and launched DAB+ digital radio in Jakarta. A de-cree, issued by Ministry of Commu-nication and Information Technology of the Republic of Indonesia (MCIT) states that Indonesia may use DAB+ as its digital platform on Band III. Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI) as the public service broadcast-er, has been operating a DAB+ trial since August 2013, powered by a 2.5 KW transmitter and antenna located at the top of the RRI headquarters in Jakarta, Indonesia, using channel 12D VHF on Band III. The first stage of the DAB+ trial will cover the Jakar-ta area and in the future RRI plans to develop coverage and the number of programmes covered by the trial. RRI and MCIT will add oth-er DAB+ services from two RRI ra-dio stations, one in Entikong, a small city of Kalimantan / Borneo, and the other in Batam City, an island close to border of Singapore. These services are in line with Presidential policy to serve Indonesian citizens in border

“We could do both traditional radio and television, and at the same time we have to explore the new me-dia platform,” Jiang maintained. He further said that tradition-al media had to strengthen themselves in order to quickly move forward. “I mean the traditional media could do more to embrace the new me-dia rather than to compete against it.” Jiang reminded that tradition-al media should not be hesitate to in-vest in new and often costly technol-ogy or else they (traditional media) could not catch up with the newest trend. He said traditional media have the capacity of embracing new technology. “We already have tech-nology, professional people and full supports from our governments,” add-ed Jiang optimistically. Jiang identified three major challenges faced by traditional media- in this case radio and TV broadcasters.

areas and remote areas. The content will be local, regional and national programmes.

Digital Radio Modiale (DRM)

on the other hand, RRI is looking at DRM for enriching its digitalization platform in Indonesia. The DRM standard is also the perfect solution for Indonesia as radio infor-mation is essential to people in our vast and diverse country with its al-most 18,000 islands. The key element which persuaded RRI to consider and test DRM was its broadcast flexibility.RRI can use DRM30 to cover large areas of Indonesia that are already receiving our RRI programmes, thus giving unity of information. DRM30 also helps RRI to cater for regional, smaller areas, so useful when focusing on a population with its own local language or dialect and with interests in programmes re-flecting their own specificity. RRI wanted to test everything it had learned about DRM and the fact that early in the 2015 Bogor trial it was

The first challenge would be the rock-eting broadcasting rights fees. “The second challenge is the commitment and willingness of ABU members to unite, and lastly the growing of new media.” Jiang also emphasized that today the mainstream broadcasting

able to upgrade a medium wave ana-logue transmitter to digital fora trial in a few hours, was amazing. Our Bogor transmitter con-tinued working in analogue of course, with simulcast and also pure digi-tal delivering a lot of extra features. The sound was excellent at quite a distance, right up to the very built up centre of Jakarta. Following this suc-cessful trial RRI signed a co-opera-tion agreement with the Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) Consortium, during last year’s ABU General Assembly in Istanbul 2015. Looking at aspects of DRM RRI realized that in many instances RRI will not need to buy new trans-mitters (unless they are very old), that RRI can keep and upgrade the exist-ing analogue transmitters to digital, which means that RRI could go dig-ital pretty quickly and save energy costs too. The standard also allows us to broadcast in simulcast during the transition period, therefore RRI may not need to have two sets of transmit-ters (one analogue and one digital).

and online broadcasting can maintain simultaneously. “It’s not one replac-ing the other. It can coexist together to make sports news or sports market bigger and bigger.”

DRM’s excellent sound at very low bit-rates, especially since the adoption of the latest audio codec, xHE-AAC, makes it very attractive to RRI. But it is not just about sound, nice as it is to get CD-quality in medium wave. It is the fact that instead of one programme on one frequency RRI can have addi-tional two or three programmes, one of which can be data. The data channel will give RRI the opportunity to broadcast texts, pictures, slide shows, traffic in-formation and anything that RRI as broadcasters wish to inform the public about. This is also very useful for RRI in terms of disasters and emergencies. The alert functionality of DRM is extremely beneficial to Indo-nesia which has experienced a lot of natural disasters. RRI will be able to inform people immediately either nationwide or locally when such calamities strike, allowing RRI to save lives.

Bali is famous for its intricate handicrafts, textiles, painting, wood and stone carvings as well as a myriad of beautiful items. But when people want to buy a quality artwork at proper prices, it will be quite challenging because the island has ample places to go. Visiting Sukawati Art Market is probably the best option for people who have time and energy to bargain the best art collections. Located on Jalan Raya Sukawati in Gianyar regency, about 20 kilo-meters northeast of Denpasar, this traditional art market is a heaven for shop lovers. A large variety of textile products, woven arts, Balinese traditional paintings and carvings are sold at numerous kiosks in and outside the market.Opened every day at 7 am to 4 pm in the afternoon, the market is vibrant and colorful. However, visitors must be ready to show their bargaining talents. Prices are offered quite high for the first time. If you have the courage to bar-gain, you can get a good quality textile or bamboo crafts at half price. Patience is needed to explore the hot and crowded market, but the market worth visit-ing as you can buy many beautiful products at affordable prices. If you have extra energy, you can also visit Pasar Pagi Sukawati (Morning Art Market) where local artisans and sellers offer art pieces at wholesale prices. Pasar Pagi Sukawati is located adjacent to Pasar Sukawati, but it is opened only from 7 am to 11 am, so don’t miss it. Happy Shopping!!


Indonesian Archipelago

The Saman dance is part of the cultural heritage of the Gayo people of Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam (NAD) province in Sumatra. Young girls or boys perform the Saman sitting on their heels or kneeling in tight rows. Each dancer wears costume embroidered with colorful Gayo motifs symbolizing nature and noble values. The leader sits in the middle of the row and leads the singing of verses, mostly in the Gayo language. These offer guidance and can be religious, romantic or humorous in tone. Dancers clap their hands, slap their chests, thighs and the ground, click their fingers, and sway and twist their bodies and heads in time with the shift-ing rhythm – in unison or alternating with the moves of opposing dancers. These movements symbolize the daily lives of the Gayo people and their natural environment. The Saman is performed to celebrate national and religious holidays, cementing relationships between village groups who invite each other for per-formances. The frequency of Saman performances and its transmission are decreasing. In the past, Saman dance was one of the media for the achievement of the message (Da’wah). This dance reflects the Education, Religious, courtesy, heroism, solidarity and unity.

Gili Trawangan is one of the three Gili Islets, which are located just off the northwest coast of Lombok Island in West Nusa Tenggara. Lombok is located close to the island of Bali and is separated by the Lombok Straits. Gili Trawangan, the largest of the three islets—Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air, offers visitors with pristine white beaches and amazing under-water life. Gili means Island in Sasak language, the language of the Indigenous people of Lombok Island. People may find Gili Trawangan and the other two islets a perfect alter-native holiday destination to escape from the already crowded and busy Bali. Sur-rounded by white-sand beaches, visitors may enjoy the serene atmosphere along the beaches while viewing the stunning panorama of Mount Agung, Bali’s highest and most sacred mountain from the distance. It will take around thirty minutes boat ride from the northwest main-land of Lombok and regular daily fast boats departing from Bali directly to Gili Trawangan islet and all boats stop off at Teluk Nare on mainland of Lombok as part of the return journey.Thirty years ago the Gili islands were uninhabited and only discovered by the seafaring Bugis people from Sulawesi. It was only a matter of time before the more adventurous backpacker types discovered the islands and developed Trawangan into a new paradise destination. Gili Trawangan now identifies itself as a great holiday destination suitable for families of all ages. Lines of new hotels, luxury villas, and boutique bunga-lows are now catering to visitors of all ages. Unique to the Gilis all forms of mo-torized transport are still not allowed – meaning the only way to get around is on foot, by bicycle and in pony carts known as Cidomos. It’s possible to follow the beach around the perimeter of the island in around two hours on foot. The most popular stretches of beaches are `Goodheart’ (the main stretch) and `North Beach’ where the best snorkeling is to be found.
