PROCTER Afghanistan’s Fourth Estate E-mail: [email protected] Independent Media Summary • Over the last decade, Afghanistan has experienced the rise of a robust media sector. Program- ming fills the airwaves with everything from news to comedy, open debate to open audition, soap operas to police dramas to ABCs. • Journalists, however, operate in a climate of fear and insecurity, under threats of reprisal and violence, with insufficient state support for freedom of the press. • The National Unity Government’s pledge to promote good governance and fight corruption cannot succeed absent a free and independent media. • President Ghani and CEO Abdullah’s campaign pledges to support freedom of speech and press freedom must be backed up by actions, including passage of a mass media law that protects freedom of speech and the personal safety of journalists. Protecting and preserving Introduction ““an independent Afghan media In the past fourteen years, Afghanistan’s media sector has evolved at warp speed. In a country with that can keep the public informed one of the world’s lowest literacy rates, radio and television serve the population with news and without fear of reprisal or violence information otherwise obtainable only in print. Under Taliban rule (1996–2001), secular radio was is essential to the country’s silenced and television programming—which had debuted in 1964 with the government-owned Radio Television Afghanistan (RTA) but plunged into decline in the 1990s as civil conflict overtook transition to an open society.

According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Afghanistan’s real GDP growth during 2013 slowed from 14 percent in 2012 to an estimated 3.6 percent. After accelerating to double digits during 2011, inflation moderated during 2012, reaching 5.9 percent year on year, though accelerated slightly in 2013 to an estimated 7.2 percent. At the end of 2013, net international reserves stood at US$6.4 billion (approximately 7 months of imports). The exchange rate depreciated by 8 percent over 2013 and has depreciated by another 3 percent since the beginning of 2014. The loan-to-deposit ratio has stagnated at about 20—25 percent of GDP since 2011, and both deposits and loans remain highly dollarized (between 70 and 80 percent), reflecting a continued lack of confidence.

It is also due to dramatic improvements in agricultural production and the end of a four-year drought in most of the country. However, Afghanistan still remains poor for now and highly dependent on foreign aid. About half the population suffer from shortages of housing, clean drinking water, electricity and employment. The Afghan government and international donors have remained committed to improving access to these basic necessities by prioritizing infrastructure development, education, housing development, jobs programs, medical care, and economic reform over the recent years. The replacement of the opium trade - which probably makes up about one-third of the country's GDP - is one of several potential spoilers for the economy over the long term.

  • STATEMENT from JOHN MATISONN CHAIRPERSON of MEDIA COMMISSION 14 September, 2005
    STATEMENT FROM JOHN MATISONN CHAIRPERSON OF MEDIA COMMISSION 14 September, 2005 The Media Commission announces that 2,889 candidates for the Wolesi Jirga and the Provincial Councils have been authorized to broadcast on radio or TV at no cost to the candidates, as of Tuesday September 13. We believe this has given an unprecedented opportunity to the people of Afghanistan to hear a wide range of opinions both geographically and substantively on radio and television. This is intended to help them become a more informed electorate in taking the necessary decisions about who to vote for on Sunday. On Wednesday September 14 we release the Media Commission Interim Report covering the period from July 19 to September 8. It gives a great deal of data about how the media covered the campaign (http://www.jemb.org/media_commission/index.html). The Interim Report consists of a monitoring report covering the pre-election period; a monitoring report covering the official Campaign Period from August 17 to 30; a set of daily reports of the rise of the number of candidates using the Sponsored Advertising Program, and a number of graphs that give information on the various stations and provinces using the program. This data is intended to be used by observers, analysts and the media as they conduct their own analyses of this campaign, as it relates to the media. It provides only preliminary conclusions. This is deliberate. Further comments will be made in the final report once the final data has been assessed. The journalism in this campaign has not violated code of conduct rules against hate speech, incitement to violence or any other serious concerns of a Media Commission, to our knowledge.
