Christmas is always a time of tremendous hope! For it is the time of year to remember how God’s plan came into being with the Fiat of the Blessed Virgin Mary at the Annunciation.

  • Bosnia & Herzegovina
    Negative trends associated with the media sphere in previous years persist, such as the media’s low level of professionalism, poor protection and conditions for journalists, a weak and oversaturated media market, an unsustainable public media service, a fragmented media scene, and political influence. BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA 16 EUROPE & EURASIA MEDIA SUSTAINABILITY INDEX 2014 introduction OVERALL SCORE: 2.04 BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) did not show signs of political or economic stabilization in 2013. The governing political parties avoided focusing on substantive reforms and implementing international standards. In April, Ba new political party launched—the Democratic Front, led by Željko Komšić, the Croat member of the B&H tripartite presidency. In the same month, the president of the Federation of B&H, Živko Budimir, was arrested on the accusation of taking bribes to approve amnesties but was released in May due to lack of evidence. In June 2013, public protests in front of Sarajevo’s parliament building and in other cities in B&H highlighted the lack of regulation of citizen IDs for newborns. The citizen initiative across B&H, although holding a promise of revolutionary change, ended as an unsuccessful bid to change politicians’ corruption, inequality, and incompetence. Finally, at the beginning of November, the B&H House of Peoples, in an emergency session and without debate, adopted the proposed amendments and changes to the law on ID numbers. The fact that the protests were organized through online platforms and social media illustrated new media’s growing influence in socially mobilizing the country. However, Serb and Croat parliamentarians framed the protests as an ethnically driven threat to their security and refused to attend parliamentary sessions for several weeks.

  • Central African Republic Media
    The panelists agreed that freedom of speech protections and rule of law are lacking, but the economic constraints on the development of stronger media enterprises remain the greatest challenge to Central African Republic media. CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC 56 MEDIA SUSTAINABILITY INDEX 2012 INTRODUCTION OVERALL SCORE: 1.77 CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC Media professionals in the Central African Republic (CAR) continue to subsist despite deteriorating working conditions, meager operating budgets, dilapidated facilities, and technical barriers to disseminating their reporting. They face government tactics of harassment, suspensions, and other deterrents, particularly in Mrelation to the country’s persisting problems of corruption and banditry in the southeast. All of these factors complicate the media scene and create a largely unsustainable environment for the press. In 2012, a donor-funded project sponsored by the EU and French Embassy laid out the areas of concern for media development in coming years. Anticipated legal reforms would vest authority in official regulators, while allowing the High Communications Council (HCC) only the power to exact administrative sanctions in cases of violations of journalistic ethics. In preparation for these changes, the Central African Media Observatory (CAR’s self-regulation body, known by its French acronym, OMCA) underwent genuine restructuring. In April 2012, the OMCA Elective General Assembly permitted the establishment of a new office consisting of five elected members, and a review of OMCA’s status. In addition, a new code of ethics for Central African journalists was adopted. Current CAR law accommodates online media, and in practice, online media outlets are left to operate without interference. This is in contrast to the print and broadcast sectors, which are subject regularly to government interventions that skirt the law.

  • November 2020
    November 2020 Gebet für die Verstorbenen 1. - 8. November 33-tägige Vorbereitung auf die Weihe an Jesus durch Maria, 5. Nov. - 8. Dez „Für den König” - Tage der MISSION in Radio Maria, 14. - 22. November Geleit Liebe Hörerin, lieber Hörer! Unser Titelbild zeigt ein Segelboot, das still über den herbstlichen Neusiedlersee fährt. Das Boot ist seit jeher ein Bild für das menschliche Leben: auf der Reise sein, unterwegs in den Gezeiten und Stürmen des Lebens. Motive wie: Jemanden ins Boot holen, Aufbruch wagen zu neuen Ufern, die Anker lichten, Leinen los, die Segel setzen, klar Schiff und die Schot(t)en dicht, sitzen wir nicht alle in einem Boot?, mit dem Wind segeln, das Ruder fest im Griff, vom Kurs abkommen, die Hoffnung nicht über Bord werfen, sich treiben lassen, Schiffbruch erleiden, stranden, neue Ufer an- steuern, das rettende Gestade erreichen, in den sicheren Hafen einlaufen. „Er machte aus dem Sturm ein Säuseln, sodass die Wogen des Meeres schwiegen - da freuten sie sich, dass die Wogen sich legten und er sie zum ersehnten Hafen führte“, erzählt uns der Psalm 107. Erinnern wir uns auch, wie oft Jesus mit seinen Jüngern auf dem See ist: beim Fischfang, im Sturm, bei der Überfahrt ans andere Ufer. Der auferstandene Christus offenbart sich seinen fischenden Jüngern im Morgendunst am Ufer. Dort bereitet er ihnen Fisch und Brot auf einem Kohlenfeuer. Er lädt sie ein, auch von den Fischen zu bringen, die sie gerade gefangen haben. Ein Bild für die Ernte unseres Lebens. Im Monat November beten wir für die, die uns auf der Lebensreise vorangegangen sind, deren Lebensschiff die Gestade der Ewigkeit erreicht hat.
