Suriname Radio Stations

Suriname's radio may be the Caribbean coast's most multilingual: Dutch is the official broadcast language, but Sranan Tongo, Sarnami Hindustani, and Javanese all claim airtime, mirroring the country's extraordinary ethnic mix. Stations like Radio Apintie, on air since 1958, are national institutions. Kaseko brass rhythms, Bollywood songs, and Caribbean pop rotate through playlists in a single afternoon of Paramaribo listening.
