PRIME MINISTER PRAISES THE MEDIA

Mozambican Prime Minister Aires Ali declared on Thursday that all Mozambicans should take pride in the country’s media, which are playing an important role in development.Speaking to reporters immediately after the opening of a meeting of the Consultative Council of the government’s press office (GABINFO), Ali said that, despite all difficulties, the Mozambican press has recorded success in recent years, both in training its staff, and in the way it has covered issues of general interest.”Our mass media is among the sectors where we can be proud of the work done”, he said. “Our journalists have done their best to bring information to the public in the most varied of ways”. GABINFO is an institution subordinate to the Prime Minister’s office, and one of its duties is to advise the government n matters related to the media.Opening the meeting of the Council, Ali said it should not be seen as a panacea through which all the difficulties and challenges in the public sector of the media would be immediately solved, without the need for any creativity and commitment in the search for the best possible solutions.According to the Prime Minister, the development of human resources, and the increasingly extensive use of information and communication technologies are among the factors that the sector should priorities so that the mass media can keep up with national development.
