KUALA LUMPUR, May 29 (Bernama) -- Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil today expressed his highest appreciation to all media practitioners for their invaluable service and dedication.
In a Facebook post in conjunction with National Journalists Day (HAWANA) 2025, Fahmi hoped that media professionals will continue their commitment and ethical practices in disseminating verified information.
“This is in pursuit of building an informed and integrity-driven nation," he said.
HAWANA is celebrated on May 29 each year, with the highlight of this year’s celebration scheduled for June 14 at the World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur (WTCKL).
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is slated to officiate the event, which is expected to draw around 1,000 media practitioners from both local and international organisations.
Organised by the Communications Ministry with the Malaysian National News Agency (Bernama) as the implementing agency, HAWANA 2025 will feature a range of events, including a Pantun Festival on May 31, a pre-launch ceremony with strategic partners at Wisma Bernama on June 3, and a media forum co-organised with the Malaysian Press Institute (MPI) on June 14.
Now in its fifth edition since its inaugural celebration in 2018, HAWANA is an annual event that brings together media professionals to honour their role and contributions to national development.
