Two things made me happy today when I accepted the invitation of Malaysia's National Multi-Radio 'Lightning' and went to participate in a 'Sewvi'.

1. They spoke Tamil as Tamil.

2. Sister 'Tresa Lazaroo', the young announcer who heard me, gathered all the information about me in a very short period of time and was prepared with excellent questions after long research.

When I interacted with many people, I was surprised to know that 'Minnal' Panpalai (national) radio has a great acceptance and recognition among the people than the private radios.

Radio is not just a 'song box'.

I also understood that this success has been made possible by giving intellectual programs, good useful information and developing common sense, like a sweetened medicine, combined with populist elements.
