Today marks the birth of the country’s inaugural national Television Service, the Solomon Islands Broadcasting Corporation TV Service.
SIBC’s 18.5M TV Service was officially launched by Prime Minister Hon. Manasseh Sogavare MP who is also the Minister responsible for SIBC this morning, 71 years after the national radio broadcaster was founded.
“Today will go down in history because today is the day that SIBC launches its Television service,” Prime Minister Sogavare enthused. “We are also here to officially launch SIBC’s coverage of the 17th Pacific Games.”
