About Radio Free Asia

“Committee for Free Asia” formed Radio Free Asia (RFA) in the 1950s. It was an organization funded as an anti-communist propaganda operation, broadcasting from RCA facilities in Manila, Philippines, and Dacca and Karachi, Pakistan (there may be other sites) until 1961. It was some offices in Tokyo. In 1971 CIA involvement in RFA ended and all responsibilities were transferred to a presidentially appointed Board for International Broadcasting (IBB)
