Nauru Media Bureau
The Nauru Media Bureau functions as the island nation’s public broadcaster and media regulator, operating under the state-owned Nauru Broadcasting Service. The bureau was established in 1998 through the merger of television and radio services, evolving from Nauru Television, which was first established in 1991. The organization provides essential broadcasting services for Nauru’s approximately 12,000 residents across its 21-square-kilometer territory. The bureau houses Nauru Television (broadcasting 24 hours daily), Radio Nauru, and publishes the monthly newspaper Mwinen Ko (roughly translated as “Let’s Talk about It”), which was introduced in 2009. Following Nauru’s resumption of diplomatic relations with China in January 2024, China Media Group (中央廣播電視總台), has opened a Bureau in the country and conducted interviews with Nauruan officials as part of expanded bilateral cooperation.
