Perkembangan dan Problematika Radio Komunitas di Indonesia
Abstract: This article is
about the development of community radio in Indonesia, it is problems and
solutions. Community radio in Indonesia developed as an alternative to both
public radio and commercial radio after the fall of Soeharto in 1998. Two
important features of community radio are that it provides all community
members with equal access to information, enhancing their rights and
obligations, access to justice, public accountability and also enables them to
participate actively in radio management and production. Both features enhance
people’s selfawareness and sense of belonging to a community. The expansion of
the progressive, participatory, community ownership, and non-profit model of
community radio, has become a third sector of communication beside the
commercial or state media. The dynamic development of community radio in
Indonesia faced several problems starting from it is definition, implementation
of regulation until standards of programmes operation based on the concept of
community approach and participation.
