Tagum City, Davao del Norte – Tagum Cooperative, after rigorous years of planning, finally put into operation its TC Radio Booth on August 06, 2024, located at the TC Commercial Building Doña Regina Dalisay Ave. Brgy. West Tagum City, formerly known as Tagum Coop Budgetel.
Historically, Tagum Cooperative has utilized radio partners as a medium of propagating cooperative education and informing members about the latest developments and updates. This also includes influencing potential members to join the cooperative.
In fact, Tagum Cooperative explored the cities of Cagayan de Oro, Butuan, and Surigao to reach would-be members last February and successfully identified radio partners, namely Strong Radio Cagayan, Magik FM Butuan, and RPN Surigao.
Overall, Tagum Cooperative has four (4) radio outlets. The other is Favorite Music Radio (FMR) from Nabunturan, formerly known as ZRadio Nabunturan.
In an opening statement, the Chairperson of the Board, Dir. Rosamaria S. Torrejano said that the TC Radio Booth is a concerted effort by all those in management and officership. She also added that the booth’s existence is essential for members to understand the cooperative more as they hold ownership.
Currently, the radio program is being implemented using the radio booth, which is fully equipped with the necessary equipment to operate. Such a program will be coursed through radio partners from respective cities for mass information. Kenn M. Tayogandaga
