What does Feba stand for and how did it start?

Feba was originally named “Far East Broadcasting Associates”, based on our partnership with sister organisation FEBC originally known as “Far East Broadcasting Company”. The Far East Broadcasting Company (FEBC) went on air from Manila, Philippines in June 1948. In the UK, FEBA (Far East Broadcasting Associates) was founded in 1959 as a support organisation of FEBC. By 1970, Feba (Far East Broadcasting Association) started broadcasting on its own and has been sharing the Good News with little interruption ever since. Because Feba primarily broadcasts to Africa, Asia and the Middle East, we prefer to be called Feba.
