As part of the 成人快手's China Week, which will run globally from Monday
7 March, the 成人快手 Chinese service will broadcast joint phone-in programmes
with Chinese language radio stations in Australia, Singapore, Taiwan
and the United States.
The phone-ins will explore the experiences and insights of Chinese
people living outside mainland China.
The four joint programmes will take place on the following days:
Tuesday 8 March with Broadcasting Corporation of China in Taipei;
Wednesday 9 March with Singapore Chinese Radio;
Thursday 10 March with China Radio Network in New York;
and Friday 11 March with SBS radio in Melbourne, Australia.
On Monday 7 March and Saturday 13 March 成人快手 Chinese will conduct phone-ins
focusing on the Chinese in Europe and those living in China.
Highlights from all the programmes will be broadcast on Sunday 13 March.
Raymond Li, 成人快手 Chinese Business Development Manager, said: "This
will be the biggest coordinated pan-成人快手 season ever, the first time
the 成人快手 has devoted a full week of special programming to one country.
"We are now able to offer our audience a global context of the
China story, and Chinese listeners and internet users across the world
are invited to join in a global conversation on China's impact."
The broadcasts with SBS will be webcast at bbcchinese.com where audiences
can also listen to the audio of all the programmes or post their views.
A special microsite - bbcnews.com/china - also offers in-depth analysis
of many of the issues explored in the season.
