Journalists urged to balance AI use with ethics, empathy
KUALA LUMPUR: Journalists today must strike a balance between using artificial intelligence (AI) and adhering to the journalism code of ethics to ensure that news reporting remains rooted in human values and professional responsibility. Malaysian National News Agency (Bernama) chief executive officer Datin Paduka Nur-ul Afida Kamaludin said that over-reliance on AI without ethical consideration could jeopardise the quality and authenticity of news. 'We cannot deny the value of technology. Many journalists are already using AI in their daily work. From recording audio with smartphones to auto-transcribing interviews, everything is now quick and easy. 'However, in our race to deliver news quickly, we must not overlook accuracy or human empathy. AI can certainly assist us, but the human touch in journalism remains irreplaceable.' Nur-ul Afida said this when featured on Bernama Radio's Temu Bual HAWANA 2025 Edition programme today in conjunction with the upcoming National Journalists Day (HAWANA) 2025 celebration themed 'Journalism in the New Era: Embracing AI, Safeguarding Ethics'. Citing yesterday's tragic bus crash in Gerik that claimed the lives of 15 students from Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI), Nur-ul Afida said empathetic reporting by journalists resonates deeply with the public, which is something that machine-generated news lacks. She said if a story like that were reported entirely by a machine or AI system, the emotional depth would be missing. 'It is the job of a journalist to feel the story and tell it with full empathy, responsibility, and sensitivity. 'They can use AI to help them, not replace them. And they must always take a few minutes to ensure the tone and content of the reports are appropriate and ethical, especially when the news involves human tragedy,' she said. She also expressed her gratitude to Bernama's editorial team for their swift response at the scene, praising both the journalists and editors for their ability to capture and convey the emotional weight of the event while upholding journalistic integrity. Nur-ul Afida especially lauded Bernama's photographers for documenting not only the aftermath of the accident, but also poignant moments, such as the sorrowful expression of Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Shah, as he met with the victims' grieving families. 'A photograph is not just a visual record. It tells the whole story. When I saw images of spilt food at the crash site, as a mother, it struck me deeply. Whose food was that? It's these details that matter. 'Imagine the mothers (who cooked that food), who sent their children off, only to be told later that their children are gone forever. That kind of pain is unimaginable. I commend the photographers for their speed and sensitivity. That's what we call the eye of a photojournalist,' she added, holding back tears. As Malaysia's sole news agency, Bernama provided comprehensive coverage of the fatal bus crash, which occurred early yesterday morning along the East-West Highway near Tasik Banding, Perak, disseminating news reports, videos, and photographs from multiple angles with dedication and empathy. HAWANA 2025 is slated for June 13 to 15, with the highlight of the celebration to take place on June 14 at the World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur (WTCKL), expected to be officiated by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Approximately 1,000 media practitioners from Malaysia and abroad are expected to attend the event, which is organised by the Ministry of Communications, with Bernama as the implementing agency.

Perak PMR 2025 To Offer Over 200 Public Services At Lumut Waterfront On June 13-15
GENERAL KUALA LUMPUR, June 10 (Bernama) -- The Perak MADANI Rakyat Programme (PMR) 2025 will be held on a large scale at Lumut Waterfront from June 13 to 15, featuring more than 200 government services for the public. Ministry of Communications, deputy secretary-general (Telecommunications Infrastructure), Mano Verabathran, said the event will involve various federal and state agencies, including the MADANI Sale initiative, which offers essential items at discounts of 10 to 30 per cent. 'Visitors can take advantage of the discounted goods and also participate in walk-in interviews. Ten companies from different sectors will be present, offering around 1,000 job vacancies. We welcome job seekers to attend,' he said during Bernama TV's Apa Khabar Malaysia programme today. Mano added that 36 booths will be set up to provide a wide range of government services, enabling visitors to carry out official matters during the three-day event. 'This initiative is part of the government's continuous effort to bring services and policies closer to the people, while fostering greater public trust in the country's direction,' he said. He also noted that the programme offers the public a unique opportunity to engage directly with multiple government agencies under one roof. This year, PMR is being held in two formats - large-scale and small-scale events. The first large-scale edition was held in Tawau, Sabah, from May 9 to 11, drawing over 192,000 visitors. Perak is the second state to host the large-scale programme, organised through a strategic collaboration between the Performance Acceleration Coordination Unit (PACU) under the Prime Minister's Department and the Ministry of Higher Education as the lead ministry. PMR 2025 in Lumut, themed 'Pendidikan Tinggi, Pemacu Negara MADANI', will run from 9am to 10pm on Friday and Saturday, and until 6pm on Sunday.
