The National Broadcasting Corporation of Papua New Guinea (NBC PNG) is Papua New Guinea's state owned broadcaster. Its head office is in Boroko, Port Moresby, and has approximately 20 locations around the country. It operates two national radio stations – NBC Radio (90.7 FM) which also broadcasts on the AM Frequency 585 MHz with Tribe 92FM (92.3FM) – and one television station NBC TV (formerly Kundu 2 and National Television Service).

NBC was established under the Broadcasting Commission Act (authority of Parliament) on 1 December 1973 and was known as National Broadcasting Commission, until 1994 when it took the present name.[1]
