In FY2016, JAMCO has provided nearly 100 Japanese TV programs, such as “What and Why” (NHK, education), “Only One Earth” (NHK, documentary) and “A Brilliant Flash of Summer” (NTV, documentary) to governmental broadcaster RTA in Afghanistan, a country with many disputes. These programs have been translated to Pashto and Dari, then broadcasted in Afghanistan. RTA’s staff members and office have suffered from massive explosions by terrorists. However, RTA is still willing to receive TV programs from Japan in FY2017, and the translation process has already started in Afghanistan.
