PRESS RELEASE -  Washington, D.C., March 17, 2008 - The Voice of 
America (VOA) has expanded Swahili broadcasts to Kenya to include an 
additional half-hour each day.

"Providing reliable news and information to the people of Kenya is critical, 
particularly during this time," said VOA Africa Division Chief Gwen Dillard. 
"This shows once again how VOA can provide a valuable service to 
audiences," she added.

The expanded radio coverage will offer news from a network of stringers in 
the region, interviews with a range of newsmakers including ruling and 
opposition party representatives, political analysts, economists, local 
residents, as well as U.S. officials, UN, EU and AU mediators and other 
African leaders.

The service will also begin a new series called In Focus taking an in-depth 
look at issues such as land distribution, the constitution, ethnic tensions, 
national reconciliation and the future of democracy in Kenya.

The new program will be broadcast at 0930-1000 UTC, 12:30 p.m. local time 
Monday-Friday, and at 1700-1730 UTC, 8:00 p.m. on weekends. Swahili 
broadcasts will now run for a total of two hours each weekday and one hour 
on Saturdays and Sundays. Visit www.VOANews.com/swahili for more
