Abstract

This work investigated in-depth the structure, management and leadership, human resources, programming and program content, participation and funding of an award winning hybrid community radio in the Philippines which has succeeded to adopt and adapt to digitalization. The shift from the traditional analogue medium to digital is a major transformation for community radio stations in general.  The blending was not made instantly. The change was taken one day at a time backed up by empirical data.  With the decision to go digital, Radyo Kailian as community radios today  and in the years to come therefore, are  faced with bigger expectations,  responsibilities, and commitments. As a hybrid medium,  Radyo Kailian as a CRS is: expected to produce on air and online programs which are acceptable to the standards of its glocal stakeholders; responsible in ensuring that digital tools are utilized essentially, effectively, and creatively; and remain committed to retain it community radio identity despite the alteration in its mode of delivery

Abstract

To document the current circumstances of the salt farmers in Ilocos Sur, Philippines and to confirm if in this side of the country, salt-making is really a ‘dying’ industry, the study used the multiphase case study design. The continuing situation of salt production in the context of the two communities covered in this study, as a low productivity, low-income industry characterized by the presence of a growing intergenerational gap in the transfer of knowledge, skill, and practice in salt making indicates an impending total weakening, if not dying, of the industry in the coming years. Its existence for years without expanding despite its potentiality in sustaining the financial and socio-economic needs of the salt-makers signifies its stunting status, obviously needing an immense recalibration both in the salt makers’ and the government’s mindset of development, process, and technological use.
