Radio Bulgaria’s popularity on the rise

Radio Bulgaria is becoming popular day by day, according to a letter by Jayanta Chakrabarty from New Delhi, India who has been listening to Radio Bulgaria’s English language broadcasts. Writes our listener: “Listening to Radio Bulgaria over the years has helped me to learn more about Bulgaria and the world. It's so informative and interesting that I do not have to tune in to other stations for my information and entertainment requirements, especially relating to Eastern Europe. Since English is not my mother tongue, I am also able to improve upon my knowledge of the English language by listening to well-constructed Radio Bulgaria programmes and by browsing your website”.

Close to 700 letters and emails and more than 160 phone calls have arrived to Radio Bulgaria in April, from you, our listeners and users of our website. Some of the most active among our large audience were those following Radio Bulgaria’s programs in Arabic. “I visit your Arabic web page on a daily basis and I very much like the way articles are published – by rubrics, with lots of pictures and with attached audios”, writes Kadir Selim from Algeria. “I particularly like your rubric on Culture and Education.” Other popular rubrics include The Way We Live, History Club, Magazine Economy and Tourism. “Your program ‘The Way We Live’ is very interesting and provides foreign audiences with enough details about lifestyles in Bulgaria, and the efforts of young people to become successful in their own country, despite the crisis”, writes Hassan Rabih from Marrakech, Morocco. Ben Amir Laid from Algeria in turn says that his favorite subject is tourism. “I always read what you publish on the website about resorts in Bulgaria! I should like to visit your wonderful country! I can see its beauty captured in the photos carried on your website.” In his e-mail to the Arabic Section Mohammad Ibrahim writes: “We are popular worldwide with the ancient pyramids and pharaohs, and therefore I read about Bulgarian history with keen interest and become aware of how ancient your land is!” Business is what interests Hamid Bariizi of Tunisia. “I can see that Bulgaria as a European country, develops more successfully in trade and farming, despite some financial problems. In your Economy rubric you provide coverage of Bulgaria’s ties with many Arab countries that are more or less traditional,” he explains.
