RFI Tiếng Việt

RFI Tiếng Việt ranks 4 among 26 stations in Vietnam. High enough that the country hub carries it in its own tables, and far enough from the head that the neighbours below are a genuinely different set of stations from the famous ones.

RFI Tiếng Việt has no language recorded in the directory. We do not infer one. Guessing from the country would put every station in Vietnam on the same shelf regardless of what it broadcasts, which is exactly the kind of filled-in blank that makes a directory untrustworthy.

A news station on a dial where news is one of the commonest tags: 8 entries in Vietnam lead with it. The tags are broadcaster-supplied throughout, so read the count as how Vietnam's broadcasters describe themselves.

Across every country, RFI Tiếng Việt is 61 of the 307 stations leading with news, by the same open count the country list uses.

At 64 kbps this is one of the lowest rate streams on Vietnam's dial, whose median is 128 kbps. It will hold a connection almost anywhere, which is the tradeoff being made.

RFI Tiếng Việt streams from rfienvietnamien64k.ice.infomaniak.ch. No other station in Vietnam is served from that address, and across the whole directory it appears one time in total.
