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

Proverbs Exposed, Expanded And Expounded (Cont.12th Aug.)

PROVERBS EXPOSED, EXPANDED AND EXPOUNDED

6. A bad penny always turns up

Whether or not you're down or up

Pray then for it to be removed like the cup

You need not use to drink with in a gulp

7. A bird in hand is worth two in the bush

Since there's no point in beating around the bush

Knowing how difficult it is to get a real push

When peace is what we all need in a rush

8. A chain is no stronger than its weakest link

Whatever its colour from dark red to pink

Better to link up together for strength or we'll sink

Right before our own eyes quicker than a blink

9. A fool and his money are soon parted

Thanks to 'fast' money getting it started

But before too long quickly departed

Leaving behind debts to be mounted

10. A friend in need is a friend indeed

When hungry will be there to feed

When angry will be there as strong reed

When empty will be there to sow seeds
