Radio Free Sarawak (Malay: Radio Sarawak Bebas) is a pirate radio station established by environmental and anti-corruption activist Clare Rewcastle Brown and helmed by former Cats FM presenter Peter John Jaban (Papa Orang Utan), Christina Suntai who graduated from Florida Technical College in computer science and computer programming, and Michael Ngau. First broadcast on 16 November 2010, the station can be received by shortwave on 15420 kHz. It also produced podcasts for its programmes daily from 1100–1300 UTC or 7:00–9:00 pm at Sarawak local time (UTC+8). The station received wide publicity in Malaysia after the brief disappearance of Jaban.[1] However it was later discovered that he had gone into hiding voluntarily.[2] On 15 November 2014, the radio suspended its shortwave transmission services and claimed the Sarawak state government has jammed its service.[3]
