In few months the BBC World Service will start to broadcast especially in Moldova. Petru Clej, editor-chief of the Romanian department of BBC World Service, announced about this at a press conference on Tuesday, 7 March. The conference was organised on the occasion of opening in Chisinau of a new BBC office. According to Petru Clej, the broadcast will last 10 minutes daily at 21:00 and 21:30. From technical point of view, it will be a joint broadcast with the Romanian one till those two broadcasts will divide, Moldovas having the opportunity to see on their own the materials prepared in Chisinau. The broadcast will be addressed directly to Moldovan listeners. Petru Clej said that it would be launched an experience exchange that young students of Moldova could study, for 4 weeks, BBC style of producing radio broadcasts. Referring to the new BBC office in Chisinau, Razvan Scortea, the manager of the Romanian department of BBC, said that it is equipped with a digital ultramodern office, being connected with the database of London, having the possibility to get the information directly from the source. It is an office offering good conditions for reporters, who for years worked in improvised conditions; even they made broadcasts of quality. „Through this investment Moldova enters the journalistic map of BBC World Service,” he noted. Lucio Mosquita, the manager of the department America and Europe of BBC, said that opening the new office shows BBC interest and commitment to reflect very correctly the events happening in Moldova. „Radio London” broadcasted for the first time in Romanian on 15 September 1939.
