The noble mission of journalists has always been to inform and educate, and that is still true.  This role and value has increased significantly since the onset of the global coronavirus  pandemic. Risking their lives and health, journalists have placed themselves at the frontlines  to provide accurate information for decision makers as well as in helping save lives. Journalists  seek transparency and accountability, holding the powers that be to account when  wrongdoings occur. 

We also acknowledge the growing and essential role journalists play in bringing Huawei  Malaysia and the Malaysian community closer together, providing us with different views and  helping us to understand our customers and the public, better. The news coverage by the local  media will continue to help brands like us navigate our company’s direction. It also provides 

us with different perspectives that may have been missed otherwise. 

We value the importance of journalists and the media who are always curious, passionate, truthful, and most importantly, always putting the people first in their quest for news. These are valuable traits in today’s society. 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all journalists and media practitioners in  Malaysia for your contributions, and for the continuous support towards Huawei Malaysia for  the past 21 years. We want you to know how much we honour your work and your role in  building strong, resilient institutions and societies. We hope you will continue to tell your  stories, inspire others with your work and create lasting impressions. 

Happy National Journalists’ Day! 

MICHAEL YUAN 

Chief Executive Officer of Huawei Malaysia
