CUROM traces its origins close to the beginning of radio. After the first radio stations of the world went on the air in the 1920’s, a group of citizens of Curaçao met and on February 20, 1933, instituted the Curacaosche Radio Vereeniging, with the purpose of introducing Curacao to this great communication novelty called radio. Soon afterwards, CUROM (Curacaosche Radio Omroep) went on the air as one of the pioneers in the region. Since the thirties, CUROM built a solid name as a respected member of the community, with a mission of informing, educating and entertaining the listener according to the highest principles of responsible broadcasting. Our commitment to principle and continued zeal to progress and improve have allowed us to consistently attract the best personnel and achieve enviable ratings. Now in our 68th year of operation, we encounter the challenges of a new age with exciting and modern programming, state-of-the-art digital equipment and the highest operating standards.
