On March 31, 2026, the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU) highlighted the persistent challenges in digitizing terrestrial radio, noting it remains an "unfinished chapter" despite the rise of streaming platforms, primarily due to connectivity, cost, and accessibility issues. Concurrently, the ABU recognized Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM), Malaysia's national broadcaster, as it celebrated its 80th anniversary, marking eight decades of service since its establishment as Radio Malaya on April 1, 1946, and its foundational role in shaping the nation’s media landscape. Earlier that day, ABU also emphasized the responsibility of journalism, stating that the stories told hold the power to move audiences beyond awareness towards meaningful action on critical issues such as climate action, social inclusion, and peacebuilding.
