A brief about the Radio On March 1, 1998. The Radio of the Jordanian Armed Forces was launched
under the name “Voice of Ennahda” (Voice of the Renaissance). It used to
broadcast for only one hour, but when His Majesty the Supreme Commander of the
Jordanian Armed Forces officially inaugurated the Radio on November 13, 2001,
the broadcast increased to two hours. And the name was changed to The Radio of
the Jordanian Armed Forces /Arab Army. The radio also plays a role in the following: promoting the Jordanian
Armed Forces/Arab Army locally, regionally, and internationally; highlighting
the heroism and sacrifices of the forces’ personnel; identifying the righteous
martyrs of the forces and the national figures especially the founders
(civilians and military); introducing the Arabic, Islamic, and international
military history; educating the personnel of the Jordanian Armed Forces and
keeping them abreast of the current events and their impact on the national
security; participating in building and polishing the national character. Speech by His Majesty King Abdullah II, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed
Forces of the Arab Army at the inauguration of the Radio I am so pleased to address you during this blessed day wherever you are
deployed to defend the soil of Jordan and its accomplishments. And to
participate in its building process, to achieve its development and prosperity
ambitions. I share with you your happiness and your ceremony of inaugurating
your radio, the radio of the Jordanian Armed Forces/Arab Army that will be, in
Allah’s will, your courageous strong voice that believes in Allah, this Arabic
land, and conscience. This radio will be a stage for the truth, knowledge, and
free opinion that springs from the love of Jordan, loyalty to its soil, commitment
to it as a homeland. It will be conveying its honorable and noble image to the
world, and defending it against anyone who tries to harm it or defame its
image, stance that sprouts from its supreme interests, or its genuine Arabic
heritage.. Media
and communication vehicles, in this time, have become an effective weapon in
hands of nations and peoples. Your radio, in Allah’s will, will be an
additional weapon alongside your weapons, a strength added to your strength,
and a Jordanian landmark that all of us are proud of and keen on keeping
distinguished. My courageous brothers, I congratulate the inauguration of your
radio. I pray to the Almighty Allah to make it a stage of right, strength, and
a Jordanian voice that meets the status of Jordan and its Armed Forces that is
reputable for its excellence, ability, and fidelity to the military honor. I am
all confident that it is going to be as we foresee. Peace be upon you. A. Medium wave is

Since its founding, the
radio has aimed to strengthen and deepen the spirit of loyalty and belonging to
the nation and the Hashemite leadership, to translate the various national
slogans as Jordan first, all of us Jordan. And to highlight the role of the
Hashemite leadership throughout history and to develop the morale of the
Jordanian citizen in general and the ranks of the Jordanian Armed Forces/Arab
Army in specific. Also, the radio aimed to develop and promote the military
professionalism of the members of the Armed Forces and to cover the political,
military, social, and economic activities of His Majesty the Supreme Commander
at the internal and external levels. And
