AN ARMENIAN-born duo of Ryde residents and radio devotees are proudly
celebrating the 25th anniversary of public radio station 2RRR's
Armenian program.
Toros Boyadjian and Vatche Topouzian broadcast their show, Voice
of Nor Serount (New Generation), from the station's Henley Cottage
headquarters on Victoria Rd every Sunday between 7pm and 9pm.
The show, the longest running program on 2RRR (88.5FM), was first
aired in November 1988.
Mr Boyadjian, 47, has lived in Ryde for 44 years, 20 years longer
than his 49-year-old friend and colleague Mr Topouzian.
But both have a burning passion for their native homeland, with a
population of 3.5 million, and sharing their love with the 10,000
Armenians who Mr Boyadjian estimated lived in the Ryde Local Government
Area.
To celebrate, 2RRR is hosting a dinner dance function at The
Renaissance in Lidcombe on Saturday, November 30, from 7.30pm.Tickets
are $100 per person. Inquiries: 0406 383 054 or 0406 723 613.
