Radio Taiwan International - English (A12)

Radio Taiwan International - English (A12)


Radio Taiwan International (RTI) broadcasts worldwide from the Republic of China on Taiwan. It is one of the world's oldest radio stations that is still operating today, broadcasting news and programs in 13 different languages. Offering a wide variety of programs spanning from Chinese lessons to Taiwanese history, Radio Taiwan International provides listeners a chance to become acquainted with the unique experience of Taiwan.
 
The station was originally established by the Kuomintang government as the Central Broadcasting System (CBS) in Nanjing, Mainland China, in 1928. During the Japanese invasion in 1937, CBS moved with the government to a new location in Hankou, and then to Chongqing, to continue broadcasting. After the end of the Second World War, the station returned with the Kuomintang government to Nanjing. Four years later, it again followed the KMT government when it moved to Taipei, Taiwan.
 
For the next 60 years, the Central Broadcasting System persevered against both domestic and foreign enemies in order to continuously broadcast for the country. It was through these broadcasts that it assisted in maintaining a stable society, promoting a sense of history, and taking the Taiwanese people to new heights.
 
From 1996 to 1998, systematic changes combining the Central Broadcasting System and the international department of the Broadcasting Corporation of China eventually resulted in the creation of international broadcasts to China and the rest of the world. These were made under the call signs of  "Radio Taipei International" and "The Voice of Asia". After the combination of these two call signs to just "Radio Taipei International", the station changed to its current call sign of "Radio Taiwan International" to avoid confusion on the part of listeners, many of whom had difficulty associating Taipei with Taiwan.
