14 April 2021, Cagayan de Oro City - Nutrition Program Coordinator Gladys Mae S. Fernandez and Nutrition Officer I Vazamija Therese A. Villasi of the National Nutrition Council Region X facilitated the unannounced monitoring of Radyo Kalilang in Kalilangan, Bukidnon last 12 April 2021. The regional office scheduled the unannounced monitoring visit to the station as a part of the regular activity for the Nutriskwela Community Radio Program. Present during the monitoring was Station Manager Roger Palma.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought challenges upon the station and the LGU with regards to the shipment of the repaired transmitter from Dumaguete City. Nonetheless, the station management and the local government leans forward to future plans once the station resumes its operations. Some of these are the possible transfer of station location, and reorganization of the Community Radio Council.
The NNC X team was also able to meet Municipal Mayor Omaradji C. Pizarro to discuss issues and the result of the monitoring visit.
Radyo Kalilang Community Radio Station with the local government unit continues to find a way to restart its operations. NNC X will continue to monitor and provide technical support to Radyo Kalilang. (NO I Vazamija Therese A. Villasi)
