PR practitioners urged to internalize Malawi vision 2063

By Chisomo Phiri

United Nations Country Representative Rabecca Adah-Dontoh has called on Public Relations(PR) practitioners and Communicators in the country to internalise Malawi 2063 and become advocates for the country’s social economic development.

Adah-Dontoh made the call in Mangochi at the Public Relations Society of Malawi (PRSM) 2023 Annual Lakeshore Conference.

“We should be also honest and proud of Malawi when talking. When I go around the country, all we hear is that Malawi is a poor country.

“This narrative has to change because Malawi has a lot of beautiful things which we need to be talking about so that people might be interested to come and visit the country,” said Rabecca.

She added that communication is a development enabler hence the need for the practitioners to be forward thinking and initiate conversations that will make a difference.

The lakeshore conference was held under the theme: “Complete Communicator.”

The conference gathered over one hundred public relations practitioners across the country.

Mzuzu University (Mzuni) students have on Saturday sent a letter of apology to Nation Publications Limited (NPL) Journalist Jonathan Pasungwi, whom they assaulted during their protest against fees hike last month.

In a letter, signed by Mzuzu University Students Representative Council (MZUREC)President Lucius Banda, the students say they regret the events of 15 September, 2023 when some of them attacked Pasungwi who was on duty; took his cellphone and deleted pictures he had taken.

“As an academic institution championing the rights of students, we consider the humiliation you faced to be counter-productive to the freedom of the press which we as intellectuals ought to defend.”

The letter, copied to MISA Malawi chapter, seeks forgiveness from the media fraternity and reconciliation.

“We finally ask for your forgiveness and that the cordial relationship our institution has had with the media fraternity should nourished back to its life.”

Meanwhile, Pasungwi is yet to respond to the letter of apology.
