LoverofCar 6th Gear April 9, 2012 Share April 9, 2012 (edited) Rediffusion to close at month's end after 63 years After more than six decades on the air, the iconic radio service Rediffusion will go silent from April 30. The death knell came in the form of a simple two-paragraph statement delivered by hand to The Straits Times in an envelope on Sunday. In it, Rediffusion Singapore's management said: 'We would like to express our deepest gratitude to all our listeners for their support throughout 63 years.' Opened in 1949, Singapore's only subscription-based radio broadcaster currently has 15 channels. But it is most popular among older listeners here for its Cantonese, Teochew and Hokkien talk shows and music. Rediffusion will be gone forever Rediffusion had been featured in my childhood as parents and grandparents will be listening to the dialect boardcast...... For memory seek and for those generation that still remember 李大傻 on rediffusion.... Edited April 9, 2012 by LoverofCar ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
