needed by the community in both voice and on-screen formats. In the pilot test we are examining various technical issues, such as how to trans-mit digital radio waves, and what con-ditions would be required for the radio to switch on automatically. In addition, we are also considering a number of operational issues, such as considering what channels would relay emergency information, and who would have the authority to flick the automatic switch. We aim to create a functioning system in cooperation with administrative organizations. It is said that a major earthquake could be imminent in the region along the Nankai Trough, or directly under the Kanto region. It is for this reason that we want to com-plete preparations for a system of digi-tal community broadcasting that would help to minimize the damage caused by such a disaster.” “The move to a digital era will con-tinue to bring about significant changes in broadcasting. The conventional frameworks for broadcasting will disap-pear, and it will become possible to link together the internet and various other types of media. At Inter BEE this year I was able to see that machinery and equipment to support these new developments continues to emerge constantly, as well as new manufactur-ers entering the market. I think there is a lot of attention on Inter BEE as it provides an opportunity for partner-ships with new manufacturers, and to see how new equipment can be utilized as we seek out new models and para-digms for broadcasting.” “Moreover, listening to the opinions of broadcasters from overseas in the various sessions at Inter BEE provides a valuable chance to get to know the status of broadcasting overseas and understand the standing of Japanese broadcasting technologies in global terms. In the media as a whole, includ-ing broadcasting, the move to a digital era is accelerating the pace of global-ization. As a forum for gaining new perspectives while taking in the current status of broadcasting opera-tions into account, I expect that Inter BEE will continue to provide a wide variety of information.”65Major changes in broadcasting andincreased expectations for Inter BEE■What are your expectations for  Inter BEE in the future?
