Research Recap submits: Oil and food prices are likely to remain high and volatile as low inventories and capacity margins are expected to persist for some time, the International Monetary Fund says in its latest World Economic Outlook. Oil production is expected to remain broadly stagnant, as much of the small amount of new capacity coming on stream is likely to be offset by further production declines in existing fields, the IMF says. In food markets, rising biofuels production and continued strong net demand from emerging and developing economies should continue to exert pressure on some prices.Complete Story »

(News News and Information) 69 years ago at exactly 6 in the morning announcer Hal Bowie took his seat before a microphone in a little studio at the top of the Heacock Building in Escolta and bid his unseen audience good morning Thus was born the fourth commercial radio station to operate in Manila In just a few years with the entire Philippine archipelago caught in the maelstrom of the Second World War the fledgling station which took the call sign KZRH would buck the challenge of history and remain as the only surviving radio station in the country Its auspicious beginnings as the mouthpiece of one of the largest department stores in the Pacific must have laid the groundwork for the stations commercial viability all these years a major factor in the survival of the socalled stepchild of media artsNew as it was KZRH management led by Bertrand Silen was not just armed with the technical knowhow in radio operations but likewise had fundamental marketing knowledge down pat They knew what radio listeners liked and dislikedMusical variety shows comedy skits and short newscasts were the order of the day Jazz and ballads became standard fare Together with American wit the English language spread KZRH found itself as an advertising medium with sponsors like Purico underwriting specific shows which carried their names Apart from 15minute blocktime sold to advertisers commercial spots mixing announcements with music were also produced KZRH found itself amidst lucrative timesThen came the grim shadow of war The Japanese Imperial Army took over the sophisticated equipment which eventually got blown skyhigh by the Americans And while Silens staff considered the best in the Far East found themselves either in Bataan at the internment camps of Santo Tomas and Los Banos within the guerilla movement or simply felled by enemy bullets plans for the rebirth of KZRH upon liberation were kept alive Upon being released Silen sought help from the National Broadcasting Company in New York to secure new transmitters and with the Elizalde family financing the new operations at the Insular Life Building on Plaza Cervantes KZRH was back on the air under the auspices of Manila Broadcasting Company on July 1 1946 just in time to cover the inauguration of the new RepublicSoon after the International Telecommunications Union adjusted the call letters of Philippine radio and all allusions to the western United States through the letter K were removed Until today all radio stations in the Philippines begin with the letter D What followed in the next three decades is now collectively known as the golden years of Philippine radio Programming flourished and a new breed of radio personalities became cultural icons As the recording industry grew the live orchestras of yore soon gave way to music on vinyl Cover versions and Disc Jockeys came into being Radio dramas hit an unprecedented boom eventually translating to the celluloid screenLina Flors immortal Gulong ng Palad which debuted in 1949 led a slew of soap operas that filled the airlanes in the mornings and afternoons Because they had the housewives and sometimes the rest of the domestic mnage as captive audiences these dramatic serials were strongly supported by major advertisers whose sales messages got very close attention through each saga Radio dramas picked up on domestic relations but also featured action adventure horror and even murdermysteries Appealing to the imagination as well as to reallife need DZRH secretaries fondly remember some callers even insisting on speaking to Ginang Hukom herselfIndeed DZRH easily adopted the habit of setting trends and institutionalizing them Sportscasting dean Willie Hernandez the networks comptroller in the midfifties lent his voice to sports coverages and in so doing made legendary Filipino basketeers like Carlos Loyzaga Francisco Rabat and Luis Lorenzo household namesThe feisty commentator Rafael Yabut also had his sterling years with DZRH Starting out as the station electrician he rose through the ranks to become the stations PR man Loyal fans kept glued to their radios when he hosted the game show Ruleta Musikal On the toprating Tayoy Magaliw Yabut dwelt on government and politics family values trivia and entertainment But it is easily Dely Mapayo who has been up to this day the most widely known personality behind the microphone at DZRH Her easy chatter contagious laughter and sparkling wit won her sponsors and hosts of listeners through her careers work From the PMCbacked Tugtugin Natin to Himig Panghapunan in vintage years and eventually the starkly simple Tiya Dely which DZRH still airs today the lady and the station have remained synonymous for over 50 years Radio quiz shows also emanated from the DZRH studios In SpelltoWin household appliances were at stake for someone who could spell words like bouillabaise On Best of the Band popular crooner Bimbo Danao tried to stump the audience with his original game format ala name that tune And on Palmolives Knowledge Unlimited even listeners contributed questions such as what war took place in 1812The Vicks Variety show opened doors for a new program format that addressed Tagalogspeaking audiences with popconcert presentation of Philippine music Singer Jimmie Navarro who won the DZRH radio popularity poll replaced Mystery Singer Cecil Lloyd and teamed up with Priscilla in performing a new romantic duet every week While listeners wrote to request old favorites new compositions were also introduced to the public Lettersending has indeed contributed greatly to the way DZRH developed over the years Ira Davis who produced the longrunning programs of Philippine Manufacturing Company patiently read through thousands of letters that came in every week The notes were routed to management and gave them firsthand information on what sort of radio entertainment even commercial copy that listeners preferred And the advertisers took note of those market preferences In later years DZRH received more immediate feedback through the telephone through pocket pagers through mobile technology and today through cyberspace But the formula remains the same innovateimprovelistenkeep the pulse And decades hence the station which survived the horrors of war is also surviving the competition DZRH as the flagship station of Manila Broadcasting Company is proud to be the purveyor of news as it should be delivered adhering to the highest standards of broadcasting excellence in the country It continues to be a witness to Philippine history as it unfolds and yet remains faithful to the mandate of fair and responsible journalism In 1986 it was the only station that aired nationwide a detailed account of the ouster of President Ferdinand Marcos Three years later DZRH reporters found themselves risking life and limb to keep the public abreast of the attempted coup detat and manifesting its spirit of compassion to wounded rebel soldiers DZRH today boasts of veteran radioman Joe Taruc anchoring the DZRH team in defining the public affairs program genre from the Pinoy perspective Despite the seeming erosion of the morning news by the telemagazines Taruc remains confident that nothing beats the immediacy of radio DZRH News Director Andy Vital on the other hand has taken new media by the horns for the stations benefit Internet radio and live chats are used to maximize the stations accessibility to audiences both here and abroad He has also encouraged popular DZRH announcers like Ruth Abao and Rey Sibayan to maintain individual blogs And with his iconic colleague Lakay Deo Macalma seemingly attuned to the secret lives of public figures and celebrities alike vigilance in good governance through reports from his bubwits is still in keeping with the stations mien for popular entertainment But perhaps it is in the field of public service where DZRH has truly earned its merits Through Operation Tulong the stations sociocivic arm first launched in 1978 corporate social responsibility and anonymous Samaritans work hand in hand Armed with their credo of Serbisyong Bayan DZRH responds to the needs of the ordinary manonthestreet with the same compassion and determination it devotes to massive disasterrelief operations through networking support from advertisers NGOs and government agencies On its 69th anniversary DZRH will conduct a medicaldental mission in cooperation with the Philippine Medical Association Gat Andres Bonifacio Medical Center the Department of Health the Philippine Air Force the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office PAGCOR and other generous donors DZRH has also invited the Optometrists Association of the Philippines to provide free eye examinations with MBC donating 500 free eyeglasses Teaming up with Islands Exhibit Link the station will likewise hold a twoday Job Fair with more than 40 participating companies and recruitment firms providing domestic and international work opportunities DZRH has also invited the Public Attorneys office Batas Barangay and their network of lawyers to provide free legal assistance And for those availing of these public service offerings DZRH is also serving free porridge lugaw as a gesture of unity with the masses who have supported them all these years Over a decade ago the station embarked on a One Nation One Station initiative expanding its coverage to an unprecedented 97 of the Philippine archipelago To date DZRH is the only station in the country that is on the air nationwide 247 on stereoquality simulcast via satellite to relay stations in key provincial cities Through all these DZRH and the top brass at Manila Broadcasting Company have remained fully cognizant of their target listeners and have used this to master their programming thrust They have convinced advertisers to support their efforts at activation and integration in reaching mass audiences DZRH taps into the consciousness of the Pinoy takes inherent sociocultural phenomena like fiestas raffles and machismo sports and actively makes them tick At the same time through creative thinking by the staff and highquality execution by their announcers DZRH has translated traditional broadcasting techniques like talkradio and soap operas into productive and impacting forms of integration or product placement that have become increasingly more efficient in moving brands across a complex media landscape But it is the way DZRH announcers today relate to their listeners that truly spells the difference It is a legacy handed down through generations of broadcasters who knew their audiences It is foresight brought about by the changing of the times It is a style acquired through personal interaction with the manonthestreet And it is a mantle of leadership new experiences and empathy toward mankind brought about by having made it through 69 yearsCongratulations DZRH kaunaunahan sa Pilipinas...
