Written evidence from Clem Osei
I am a 65yr old physician, born and raised in West
Africa and practising in the US. I have listened to the BBC since
age 5/6 and so you can surmise that it has helped shape my world
view. This goes for a lot of people in remote places in the world.
A decision to decimate the service in the extent outlined is very
short sighted since, the BBC World Service, in my view, represents
a great investment of Britain's foreign policy money! You don't
necessarily have to cut off your nose to spite your face!
