📋 Tender Overview
The Minister of Communications, Frederico de Siqueira Filho, participated, on Wednesday (21), in Brasilia, a meeting with leaders of the Brazilian Association of Radio and Television Broadcasters (Abert). During his participation, Frederico stressed the importance of fostering the sector, seeking partnerships, maintaining dialogue with companies and continually moving so that the broadcasters follow a service of excellence to the Brazilian people.
He has announced that the ministry will soon launch new bidding edicts to grant authorizations to new commercial radio and TV stations - something that has not occurred for more than 15 years.
This is an achievement that rescues the credibility of the granting system and paves the way for the expansion of the communication service across the country. More than an administrative act, it is a clear signaling that President Lulas government is committed to promoting more plurality, regionalization and opportunities for the sector, said the minister.
Frederico also talked about TV 3.0, which will turn the way the country watches the open TV. This represents a technological leap for our communication. We are already working, along with the Civil House, Anatel and the sector, to ensure safe, transparent and inclusive implementation, which benefits both radio -pusitors and the population, he said.
The minister also stressed that the ministry has accelerated the expansion of digital TV and expanded the number of community radios and relay in all regions of the country.
These are actions that strengthen local communication, democratize access to information, and value Brazils cultural diversity. Our commitment of course: building a stable, transparent and innovative regulatory environment. I put the Ministry of Communications available to you for dialogue and reaffirm our commitment to work side by side to ensure growth, sustainability and protagonism in the future of communication, he said.
