what benefit does the BBC gain from translating

Some of, I expect. Or is "Look East" really available in Swahili?

their news into 30 different languages?

Because they have something called a "World Service"?

Is this a cost the viewers are funding or are the foreign office funding it?

Who funds the foreign office?
