DZRP - Radyo Pilipinas World Service (also known as Voice of the Philippines, then known as Radyo Pagasa) is a shortwave radio station broadcasting outside the Philippines. Owned by the Presidential Broadcast Service under the Presidential Communications Group, the station is operated from Mondays to Sundays 1:30 AM to 11:30 AM PHT (17:30-03:30 UTC) on various shortwave frequencies, with internet live streaming across all schedules. It broadcasts in Filipino and English languages. Radyo Pilipinas World Service uses the relay transmitter facilities of Voice of America in Tinang, Concepcion, Tarlac for its broadcast purposes.

As PBS made a rebranding of its flagship network Radyo ng Bayan and station DZSR into Radyo Pilipinas by 2017, the shortwave station remains unchanged but added "Worldwide" (later "World Service") to its name to avert confusion.

After EDSA Revolution in 1986, the NMPC and Bureau of Broadcasts (BB) were abolished, led to its stations (including VOP) were reassigned to the newly reinstated PBS. VOP was later rebranded as Radyo Pagasa until in 1987 when the station became Radyo Pilipinas under its own callsign DZRP.
