MN.16.07.1986: From Aruba, thru BBC Monitoring to Asia

Turn the clock back 24 years and join us for a radio profile of what radio sounded like on the Caribbean island of Aruba. The World Cup in Mexico had just finished...and Pete Myers reports on what the ABU wants to do about radio in South Asia, Alan du Pre tells us how a UK commercial station is broadcasting DX news at just after midnight and the Media Network book review is 'Assigned to Listen' being the memoirs of those who worked at BBC Monitoring. Wierd that many of those same items come back in the news as though nothing has changed.
