Swaziland: Swaziland considers opening airwaves

Swaziland's cabinet is presently considering a draft ICT policy, which would provide for Swazi TV and the national radio station to become a public broadcaster run by an independent board, according to a report by the Media Institute of Southern Africa. However, the state broadcaster is resisting such a move, apparently arguing that Swaziland is a homogeneous country and therefore should not encourage different voices over the airwaves, according to Misa.
