NHK

NHK stands for „Nihon Hoso Kyokai,“ which translates to Japan Broadcasting Corporation. It is Japan’s national public broadcaster and is responsible for providing television, radio, and online broadcasting services. Established in 1926, NHK operates under a system similar to public broadcasters in other countries, funded primarily through viewer subscription fees rather than advertising revenue. It aims to deliver educational, informative, and entertainment content, fulfilling a public service mission by promoting culture, providing news, and offering programming that reflects the needs of the Japanese population. NHK also plays a significant role in disaster broadcasting, aiding in emergency communications during natural disasters.
