The history of Nalia Radio and Television (NRT) goes back to the days when there were no independent media networks in the Kurdistan Region. The corporation claims to be independent. In 2010, a group of freelance journalists came up with the idea of taking the lead to fill that void and launched the first ever independent media network, funded by Nalia company.

Shaswar Abdulwahid Qadir is the owner and founder of Nalia Media Corporation which is the only independent media corporation in the Kurdistan Region and is built under the slogan of ‘Courage, Balance and Truth.’ He is often accused of corruption and failed to pay the shareholders of Chavi Land in Sulaimaniyah province, a project that he owns it

Alsumaria is an independent Iraqi television network that was founded in September 2004 and today includes a group of media professionals and the best technicians, with 700 employees working between Iraq, Lebanon, the United Arab Emirates and Jordan.

Alsumaria TV adopts a moderate speech for one Iraq, standing at a distance from all shades of the diverse Iraqi people. This diversity considers the path towards peaceful coexistence and recognition of the peaceful transfer of power.

Through its programs and news releases, the channel seeks to spread concepts of democracy, freedom and political and economic openness to the world. In her speech she adopted liberal opinion, in the sense that it represented adherence to religious faith while rejecting tyranny, inclusiveness and absolute rulings. The channel also seeks to support national trends in building the Iraqi state on democratic and rational bases that meet the aspirations and needs of civil society.

Its motto, “Bringing Life”, is a clear and practical embodiment of all concepts of peace, optimism and prosperity.
