Journalists Told To Report With Accuracy

SHAH ALAM (Selangor, Malaysia), July 11 (Bernama) -- Tuanku Raja Zarith Sofiah ibni Sultan Idris Shah, consort of the Sultan of southern state of Johor, on Wednesday reminded journalists of their responsibility to write and report based on facts and with accuracy. She said this was important because the media provided the people with knowledge on various situations and happenings locally and abroad, especially in the borderless world of today. "As consumers of news, we enjoy the diversity of views and opinions expressed by people from different countries, and all are available at our fingertips. "I do hope that at this conference, you will find common ground and common goals," she said when opening the Asian Media Information and Communication Centre (AMIC)-UiTM International Conference on "Forty Years Of Media and Communication in Asia: Retrospect, Introspect and Prospects", here. Raja Zarith Sofiah said the presence of young Asian media commentators at the conference was significant because these people were the ones who would shape the future. -- BERNAMA
