The Greek community in Istanbul has taken its voice around the world through an online radio station called The Sound of Istanbul, which debuted on Oct. 30 during a ceremony in the auditorium of the Secretariat General of Information and Communication in Athens. This was an initiative taken by the Greeks of Istanbul.
“Six months ago, two expats had the idea of creating a radio station
for all Greeks in Istanbul, in order their voice to be sound around the
world,” Andreas Rompopoulos, inspirer of this idea, said.
This online radio station was realized thanks to the initiative of an
expat group as well as the expat newspaper IHO (Echo), published in
Turkey since 1977. In a recorded congratulatory video Ecumenical
Patriarch Bartholomew said that providing information around the world
is critical in this age.
Olga Kefalogianni, Minister of Tourism, attended the ceremony and was
joined by many others, including journalists, artists and radio
producers who discussed the statin’s aim. The Sound of Istanbul
