Subject: Revocation of the Suspension of Radio Veritas Asia ( RVA)
Dear Your Eminences, Excellencies,
Rev. Fathers, Brothers and Sisters,
and our Beloved Donors,
I am glad to announce hereby the revocation of the suspension of Radio Veritas Asia (RVA) operations in Manila, which I was compelled to do due to certain situations that emerged. As these matters are being duly addressed by the concerned authorities, and resolution of outstanding issues are in sight, and in consideration of the important mission of Radio Veritas Asia (RVA), it is imperative that we continue to go forward with the work of RVA in proclaiming the Good News in Asia through the means of communication.
The Committee of Bishops appointed by the FABC to look into certain outstanding concerns of RVA have listened to the members of the FABC OSC, PREIC, the Donors, RVA leadership, the Language Services, and other stakeholders. The Committee is expected to present its report and recommendations to the FABC Central Committee for further decisions concerning RVA. In the meantime, I appeal to all those who are associated with the work of RVA to continue their services with whole-hearted commitment.
I pray God’s blessings on the Church in Asia, the Pastors and Faithful, that we may be able to faithfully and without fear proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ to all Peoples of Asia.
In Christ,
+ Cardinal Charles Bo
President, Federation of Asian Bishops Conferences (FABC)
Given on 10th August 2023: Feast of St. Lawrence.
