Radio BOSCO

Radio Bosco 89.9 FM is a community radio station which responds to the needs of the people. It brings news, views, stories and happenings surrounding various topics such as education, health, women, youth, community, culture, customs and traditions. Such topics educate and empower the people as they strive to overcome social issues such as alcoholism, drug abuse, male domination and ethnic rivalry.

‘Empowering people, Building community.....’

The radio station commenced its broadcast on 27th February 2005. It is situated at Don Bosco, Tetere Guadalcanal in the midst of the RTC center for boys and girls, the parish, the health center, school, prison and the villages around the plantation. It serves as a communication link to the different villages scattered in the palm oil plantation of the area. It is a critical communication tool as travel and communication is difficult in this area due to there being no phones, Internet, newspapers and transport to reach the people.

Launched by the Salesian Fathers in the Solomon Islands, it offers a competent and appreciated service spreading the Gospel in the Pacific Islands and enables the people to share their lives, knowledge, culture, success, dreams and struggles.

Many local youths are involved in the production of programmes which include:

V Youth Quest
