3.11 The state/public broadcaster offers as much
diverse and creative local content as economically
achievable.
There is no programme production policy except for those produced based on
certain partnerships. There is no production budget. Journalists working in the
production department at ORTB seem not to be having anything to do.
It shall, however, be acknowledged that production as a whole (commercial or
not) is predominantly local. However, there are very few ORTB productions.
Based on programmes broadcast during the second half of 2009, it appears that
communication and audiovisual production agencies in partnership with ORTB
or independently (buying air time) produce over 75% of local content.
