Bahrain will soon have its first privately-held radio station, a spokesman for the project said today. Sawt al-Ghad, or the Voice of Tomorrow, has already obtained permits from the Ministry of Information and gone on the air on a trial basis in Bahrain and eastern Saudi Arabia, said Mohammed Shrughi of Delmon Media. The station is expected to launch officially in one month and will focus on music, sports, culture and the stock market but avoid news and politics, he said. Delmon is owned by Bahraini, Kuwaiti and Saudi investors.
