Roles Of The Press - (Ref:M'siaThinkTankLondon&MPI)

ROLES OF THE PRESS
The role of the press is to inform
The general public plus those in uniform
What goes on and what's been formed
Including what's being reformed and transformed
The role of the press is to educate
Towards public education it must dedicate
Clarifying issues and never to complicate
Ensuring what's published is strictly accurate
The role of the press is to communicate
Ideas and ideals among those who participate
The public's mind it must constantly stimulate
With suitable role models for all to emulate
The role of the press is to postulate
The future trend that some may speculate
By whatever means used to calculate
To forewarn the public before it's too late
The role of the press is to entertain
With comics it's like to the desert welcomed rain
Inculcating the mind with sense of humour to train
Loosening up the funny bone's invisible chain
