1. Talk radio provides the best examples of this and is becoming icreasingly common today. The Heartline program in Manila was one of the first as they worked through a variety of family and relational issues each night. The program was duly copied in Indonesia where it later became an FEBC brand of stations. When it first went to air in Jakarta for a one-hour broadcast on Sunday nights listeners continued to respond for the next few days. Extra staff had to be hired to cope with this response.
2. The network of FEBC stations in Russia also provide several hours daily as they encourage listeners to speak up and share their opinions openly. Stations working in community development encourage listeners to phone in to the station or send SMS (text) messages if preferred. Examples abound.
