Re: [Swprograms] Radio Romania International - "the issue of ceasing the short-wave broadcasts"

[stevec038@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Sounds like that the countries that can budget SW have decided that this a place they can cut budgets. The countries that can't afford their own SW just happen to be the ones that need SW the most. A loss-loss on both sides. 
The assumption that the Second world can balance their budgets by ignoring the Third world leaves out a whole group of people that the First world decided to ignore years ago. 
It won't be long before the US, Canada and Europe will be blindsided by those they ignore under the guise of "fiscal Restraint."
