DWRM (648 AM) Radyo Pilipinas is a radio station owned and operated by the Presidential Broadcast Service. Its studio and transmitter are located along National Highway, Bgy. Sta Monica, Puerto Princesa.[1][2][3]
The radio station was established through the effort and initiative of then House Speaker Ramon V. Mitra Jr., congressman of the 2nd district of Palawan with the aim of bringing the government to the far flung areas of the province using the airwaves. It was also dubbed DWRM in honor of the late speaker's effort to emphasize the ultimate purpose of the station that is to serve the people.
