Tonga Broadcasting Commission
Tonga Broadcasting Commission is the first and largest broadcasting station in Tonga, solely owned by the government of Tonga. It operates two free-to-air TV channels, one AM commercial radio channel, one FM commercial radio channel, and a 24-hour Radio Australia relay channel. TBC relies on profits from its TV & radio advertising sales, and from its retail radio shop outlet located in Vava'u. Its retail radio shop in Nukualofa's Central Business District was among the numerous businesses destroyed in the riots of 16 November 2006.
