has stated that media is the fourth pillar of democracy.
A free press is essential for peace, justice and
human rights for all. It is crucial to building transparent and democratic
societies and keeping those in power accountable. It is vital for sustainable
development.
Journalists and media workers shine a light on local
and global challenges and tell the stories that need to be told. Their service
to the public is invaluable.
Laws that protect independent journalism, freedom of
expression and the right to information need to be adopted, implemented and
enforced. Crimes against journalists must be prosecuted.
On World Press Freedom Day 2018, I call on
governments to strengthen press freedom, and to protect journalists. Promoting
a free press is standing up for our right to truth
Dr William Bhatti also requested that the media
should help to bring all the problem related to health issues and all health
polices in the reach every citizen. Awareness for health insurances is equally
important.
