Public Broadcasting of the Federation of Phinbella (Phineaner: Penyiaran Awam Wilayah Persekutuan Phinbella; Taesongean: 핀벨라연맹 공영방송; RRPhinbella Yeonmaeng Gongyeong Bangsong) or Publieke Omroep van de Federatie van Phinbella (abbreviated to FPPO; Federatie van Phinbellanse Publieke Omroep; literally 'Federation of Phinbellan Public Broadcasting') is an entity-level public broadcasting organization that operates all public radio and television services spanning throughout the Free area of the Federation entity. This broadcasting organization is among the public broadcasters that exist in Phinbella besides KBS and TDPP, and is headquartered in Negara Awan and previously located in Bandar Baru Fatin. The FPPO has operated three television channels and six radio stations.

History

On February 14, -63BP, the first radio station was launched, known as "TQ-1", while two radio station as TQ-2 and TQ-3 launched on the same day, with a staff of ten people. Several name changes took place over the next few years, finally becoming known as "Phinbellan Public Radio" in -46BP. In the radio's early beginnings, its broadcast time was initially four hours on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, then on in -50BP, its airtime was extended to morning hours. The radio station introduced a 7-day-a-week broadcast in -44BP, and divided the broadcast time into three periods during the day; in the morning, lunchtime, and evening. This is partly due to many presenters being part-time freelancers who have to fit their radio appearances around their normal daily work schedules. In -39BP, the evening broadcast time was introduced.

The broadcast time in this radio station is filled with programs produced by different groups of broadcasters based on different ideologies, such as liberal, Umraist, Catholic, Protestant Nazarene and even socialist and conservative broadcasters. The fourth radio station, which known as Radio 4 launched in -39BP, as well as Radio 5 launched in -16BP provided space for broadcasters to produce programmes, including the newly established KTR (now FKTR) and RPPRA. Under the pillarisation system in place at the time, each group of listeners was loyal to its pillar broadcasting company. This program is funded by the association members themselves.

A radio license fee was introduced in -37BP; different broadcasting groups have chosen a path and united to cooperate more with each other, and the Phinbellan Radio Union (Kesatuan Radio Rantau Phinbella) has been established to replace and operate the PhPR radio stations, producing joint programs for its radio stations.

In -30BP, the station's mediumwave AM transmitter was moved from the waterfront site at Tama Seryouchi to the top of Bukit Emas in Karaikal district. Although the new transmitter was much more powerful, the mountaintop site proved unsuitable for medium wave transmission and reception in some areas has remained problematic ever since. The Public Affairs Television Foundation (Yayasan Televisyen Hal Ehwal Awam, YTEA) was established in -30BP to operate television service projects. YTEA built several broadcast transmitters around the headquarters. On December 20, -29BP, the first television station in Phinbella was launched with two free-to-air channels. At the beginning of television broadcasting in Phinbella, a total of over 525,000 television units were sold, and during that period television license fees were introduced. However, after nine years of dominating television services in Phinbella, YTEA has begun to compete with the first commercial television broadcaster, the Phinbellan Commercial Television Network (now known as ARF De Veertiende) whose key station was launched on September 14, -28BP. Although YTEA is joined by broadcasters who also produce PhRU programs, but since the emergence of commercial broadcasters, it has indeed gained competition from commercial broadcasters controlled by newspaper influence of various ideologies, as is the case in Greater Sangun.

PhRU and YTEA established their own radio and television newsrooms in -27BP, thus broadcasting newscasts such as PhRU Journaal and Journaal YTEA. Previously all news was prepared by the staff of the Local Government Information Service. In -26BP, PhRU and YTEA provided a formal framework for providing the public with information, entertainment, culture and education, with time allocated to broadcasting associations appointed based on the number of members of each association by introducing an open system under the Pan-Phinbellan Public Broadcasting Pool Committee which also joined by the second public broadcaster, the CBC. It provides an opportunity for other organizations to access the public system, including former unlicensed commercial broadcasters such as TRBF, PROMEK and Suria and Evangelical broadcaster EvBS to diversify programming. Advertising revenue has been added to supplement the income of PhRU and YTEA and its broadcasters, run by an independent agency called the Federation Foundations of Either Advertising (FSTER).

The Phinbella Radio Union (PhRU) and the Public Affairs Television Foundation (YTEA) merged to form the Federal Broadcasting Foundation or Federale Omroep Stichting or abbreviated to FOS, which is responsible for providing news and sports programs and the general coordination of the public system. On January 20, -22BP, the two YTEA channels were named as Phinbella 1 and Phinbella 2, until on April 26, -18BP, FOS television channels were renamed as Federation 1 and Federation 2. On the same day, all FOS radio channels were named with names starting with "Gelombang", like Radio 1 was known as Gelombang 1.

In -12BP, after the old Negara Awan was completed and inaugurated, FOS and its broadcasters moved their headquarters to a suburban area known as Pos Appat which is located not far from Negara Awan's city center, and a village was built around the new headquarters known as Kampung Kelaboran. The station's first news and finance channel, Gelombang 6, was established in November -11BP. On May 21, -10BP, a new television network, Federation 3 was launched to broadcast programming targeted at youth and children.

In RP 2600, because many anime programs brought from Sangun became the choice of viewers and mostly broadcast in bilingual, where some were shown in the morning and late at night, a new broadcasting association Anime Broadcasting Station (ABS) was established and included in the public broadcasting system, all anime and its related programs including the anime song chart program that was formerly in Promek programming has been moved to ABS programming. After broadcaster Suria decided to leave the public broadcasting system in -6BP to become part of a commercial broadcaster, the market share of public television fell from 82.4% to 43.9% in -5BP. However in RP 2600, the market share of public networks stabilized at 51.8%, with the entry of new broadcasting associations other than ABS. BNN (Bandoraye News Network, then Bandoraye Neverending Network) replaced Suria as a program provider for teenagers and young adults.

On 10 November RP 2600, the Federation-wide public broadcasting system was reorganized where previously it was managed by the FOS. In the reorganization, the public broadcasting system was placed under the control of the "Publieke Omroep van de Federatie van Phinbella" (Public Broadcasting of the Federation of Phinbella), abbreviated as FPPO, short for "Federatie van Phinbellanse Publieke Omroep". In the amendment to the broadcasting act through the Telegraph Regulations Organ stated that FPPO was appointed as the administrative organization of the public broadcasting system in the entity of Free area of the Federation of Phinbella until RP 2622. The first broadcasting act passed at the beginning of the Phinbellan provisional government era, which provided a new body was established known as the Telegraph Regulations Organ which changed the status of public broadcasting owned by the local government to the status of independent public broadcasting owned by the Phinbellan people, where the Phinbellan-wide public broadcasting system managed by FPPO and also a Pan-Phinbellan national level public broadcaster, KBS was officially made an independent public broadcaster on 10 December RP 2600. The new body involving the public broadcasting system allows content produced by public broadcasting associations based on ideology, religion and also entertainment-oriented to be broadcast according to the suitability and taste of the Phinbellan community and can still practice "open system" in this public broadcasting system.

In January RP 2610, cuts to the FPPO public system come into force, with eleven existing full-time broadcasting associations facing decisions about their future, due to the cuts, it is likely to reduce the number of broadcasting associations in the system, and there was a merger between the broadcasters' association institutions after the PowFed and RTI associations were included in the FPPO public broadcasting system. The University Programming Foundation (UPS), Academia Broadcasting (AB) and Radio Volks Universiteit (RVU) are combined into one public broadcaster known as the Federation Institution of the Audiovisual for Radio and Television or Federatie Instituut van Audiovisueel voor Radio en Televisie (Audiovisuales) which delivers cultural, educational, current affairs and children's programs to public system. Meanwhile, MO, FAO and SMOF, which are small broadcasters dedicated to Umraist, were merged into the Federation Umraist Broadcasting System, abbreviated to SPIP. FPPO absolutely does not allow any political party to influence the programming in this public broadcasting system as stated in the broadcasting act and the Telegraph Regulation Organ as an independent public broadcaster owned by the Phinbellans in the Federation area.

On 30 September RP 2618, FPPO took over the analogue channel frequencies of Southern Cross Broadcasting (SCB) after the free television license granted to SCB expired, among the channels that took over the frequencies were FPPO3.

Services

Radio and television programs are mainly published in four Phinbellan national languages including the Gangwol dialect along with its creole (for its local telenovela slot), Batavian language (relative to Phinbella’s third national language) and Sangunese in its anime slot. The FPPO headquarters is located at Pos Appat, Negara Awan, just a few kilometers from the city center and the KBS Broadcasting Center in Nilam Puri. Several Federation broadcasting organizations were initially airing their programs on three television channels (FPPO1, FPPO2 and FPPO3) and all FPPO's radio stations.

FPPO is divided into two service units, namely FPPO radio service (entity-level public radio service) and FPPO television service (entity-level public television service) and consists of six public service broadcasting associations.
