VOI News, Jakarta: Deputy Minister of Communication and Informatics of the Republic of Indonesia, Nezar Patria appreciates the role of RRI in building public trust through critical reporting and representing public problems and aspirations. This was conveyed by Nezar Patria at the Launch of the RRI News Application at the RRI Building in Jakarta on Friday (26/7).
“I often hear criticism arising from a number of news reports that question, for example, social assistance does not reach here and does not reach there, and it is done by RRI. I think it is good criticism because we capture some of the problems that exist in the community. This also makes public trust in the media even though it belongs to the Government, but it can take a place as a medium for positive communication between the community and the government,” he explained.
Moreover, in his speech, Nezar Patria also expressed the importance of maintaining RRI's value proposition as a government-owned media as well as a professional media that continues to seek feedback and educate the public.
He also emphasized the importance of RRI following digital technology trends to remain relevant and present information more innovatively as the development of RRI News and RRI Digital. (Daniel/Rini/AF/Rahmana)
