The Near East Network (Sangunese: 近東ネットワーク, translit.: Kintō Nettowāku, Phineaner: Rangkaian Timur Dekat), known corporately as the Phineonesian Forces-Taemshinco Near East Network, is a network of shortwave, FM radio and terrestrial television stations in the Phineonesia region operated by the Taemshinco Radio and Television Service (formerly as Phineonesian Forces Radio and Television Service) which are jointly owned by the Phinbellan Armed Forces and Standard Oil Taemshinco K.K., a Taemhwanian-owned petroleum company, which in later years broadcast in various languages ​​including Istvanistani. It was formerly owned by the Barbarite Offshore Forces, the Vers Imperial Forces and the Shintarian General Army together with Taemshinco. The network has eight stations, primarily serving military bases and offshore labor settlements, and surrounding areas in Negara Awan, the Vers Empire (now Tannyeugwa and Phineas Padolski), Taemhwanian Proper, the Scattered Islands, Key West in Turku and Hōri, the Syōnan Archipelago, Kōkai, Nod-Krai and the Shintaro State in Forajasaki.

Launched on February 8, -38BP, NEN was one of the earliest networks in Phinbella but it was not located in Negara Awan. Initially a bilingual service operating in both Istvanistani and Phineaner or foreign languages, it later became a PAL service broadcasting exclusively in Istvanistani. But after that, Sangunese services including Karnali services have been started in recent years. The Phineaner service in NEN was also relaunched afterwards.

Overview

Now known as the Taemshinco Network, retaining the NEN branding, the network provides news, information and entertainment to Shintarian military personnel, Taemshinco civilian and offshore oil rig workers, and Taemshinco personnel and their families via over-the-air radio and TV, and via basic cable television. It was launched in -38BP on both mediums, before regular television service in Phinbella began in -29BP.

In addition to the authorized Shintarian military and Taemshinco civilian audience, the station primarily targets the 9,000 local civilian audience around the settlement camp, but its 12-kilowatt transmitter allows NEN to have a much larger audience, with an estimated "shadow audience" of 4.4 million non-military listeners; mostly locals learning Istvanistani, and other Istvanistani-speaking foreigners living around the Tempasuk and Keiki regions as well as in Tannyeygwa and Nod-Krai.

Taemshinco-NEN is headquartered in Negara Awan primarily in Pos Rodebaai, a former Shintarian military base and Taemshinco camp on the outskirts of the city, and is also known as "NEN-Rodebaai". As well as another headquarters at Camp Hastons in the Glorioso (Karenkō) Islands which houses the main Taemshinco residential camp and a military base currently used by the Phinbellan Armed Forces and Hurmu Fyrð, this station is known as "NEN-Glorioso Islands".

The network has affiliates located at Camp Ashton in the Broome Keys, Turku and Hōri (NEN-Broome Keys), Taemshinco Residential Camp Kangor (NEN-Nod-Krai), and SANAE II P-II Camp in the Tannyeugwa Islands (NEN-Tannyeugwa). Although not operationally part of what was once NEN - Taemshico personnel assigned to the Taemshico Shintaro Network (STN) are under the partial administrative control of the NEN Network Headquarters.

NEN-Glorioso Islands is also the Taemshinco Primary News Center, which gathers news from all public affairs offices in Taemshinco residential camps and NEN affiliates, and packages it into regional news releases.
