Personality of the Year 2024 on RRI
Dear Friends,
Radio Romania International is again conducting its annual survey among listeners and users of Internet and social media, presenting you with a new challenge in 2024, a complicated and difficult year for all of us.
It was a difficult year due to the continuation of the war launched by Russia against Ukraine, the conflicts in the Middle East, but also due to global warming, which made 2024 the hottest year in history.
It is against this backdrop that we’re asking you who has had the most positive impact on the world this year? Based on your options, we will be designating the
“Personality of the Year 2024 on Radio Romania International”. We kindly ask you to make your nomination, accompanied by a short justification.
Please send your contributions as soon as possible by e-mail to [email protected], leave a comment on our Facebook or Instagram profiles or write to us on WhatsApp, at 0040.744.312.650 (text or audio).
We will announce the “Personality of the Year 2024 on Radio Romania International” on-air as well as online, on Wednesday, January 1, 2025.
We look forward to hearing from you!

RRI’s Annual “Personality of the Year”
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, David Iurescia, who shares the following announcement from Radio Romania International:
Personality of the Year 2023 on RRI
Time for RRI’s annual survey of its listeners and Internet and social media users to find out the 2023 Personality of the Year.
RRI is again holding its annual survey of its listeners and Internet and social media users to find out the 2023 Personality of the Year.
And this has been no easy year, with Russia’s war in Ukraine continuing, energy prices rocketing, many parts of the world suffering food shortages, and not least, with global warming causing what was probably the hottest year on record. On top of all this came the conflict between Israel and Hamas, in the Gaza Strip.
In this difficult year, which international public figure, in your opinion, has had the strongest positive impact on the world? And why? RRI will designate its Personality of the Year based on your nominations, which you can submit, together with a short justification, by posting directly on our website in a comment to this article, at www.rri.ro, by email at [email protected], on our Facebook page, on Instagram, WhatsApp, at 0040.744.312.650 (text or audio) or by fax at 0040.21.319.05.62.
We will announce the RRI Personality of the Year on-air and online on Monday, 1st January 2024.
We are looking forward to receiving your nominations, so please, get in touch!

Radio Romania International shuts down two transmitters after budget cuts

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Paul Walker, who shares the following news from RRI:
Two transmitters discontinued
Two out of the five transmitters broadcasting RRI’s programmes are temporarily suspended as of 1 August
Dear friends, the Radio Romania Board of Administrators decided to temporarily suspend the use of 2 out of the 5 Radiocom shortwave transmitters that ensure the broadcast of Radio Romania International programmes, because of budget cuts. As of August 1, our programmes are aired via one transmitter in ?ig?ne?ti, one in S?ftica (both of them near Bucharest) and one in Galbeni (east). As soon as the budget of the institution is restored, we will resume broadcasts on all 5 transmitters.
The RRI programmes in Romanian, English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Chinese and Hebrew are affected. All of them may be received on only one frequency instead of 2, as of August 1, 2023. The frequencies as well as any other prospective changes operated by Radiocom further to reception monitoring and to your feedback on reception quality will be announced in our broadcasts, on our web page and on Facebook.
Budget restrictions also prompted a reduction of the night time power of medium wave transmitters that broadcast Radio Romania News and Current Affairs programmes and of some regional stations.
We invite you to follow RRI’s programmes online at www.rri.ro (including on demand), on SoundCloud, on Android and iOS apps, via TuneIn and via satellite. You can find more details on our home page. You can also follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn and Spotify.
