[size=45]The head of the Kurdistan Journalists Syndicate, Azad Amin, confirmed today, Thursday, that the Kurdish press has managed to benefit and develop in the field of media and become an important factor in the process, political decision and Kurdish public opinion and building good legal foundations for the press.[/size]
[size=45]Hamadamin said in an interview on the occasion of the 124th anniversary of the founding of the Kurdish press and the 24th anniversary of the founding of the Kurdistan Journalists Syndicate, that this development led to the emergence of other challenges for the Kurdish press, which lies in the fact that the union sees the need to reconsider the press work law to be broader and more comprehensive because the law was written at its time only for the press Written and currently there is an electronic press.[/size]
[size=45]He added that he met today with the Speaker of Kurdistan Parliament and spoke with her about the need for other laws to fill the void, including the formation of an independent media council and a guarantee fund for journalists.[/size]
[size=45]Hamadameen demanded that the speech on social media should be separated from the professional press, because this is an issue that must be dealt with according to international standards, especially the issue of protecting the privacy of the individual, which is an important issue.[/size]
[size=45]Regarding the problems in social networking sites, Azad Hamad Amin said that the laws related to these sites should be made to protect the journalist and protect his freedom, and to differentiate between a professional journalist and a citizen journalist because the citizen sometimes publishes information there and he is not a professional journalist.[/size]
[size=45]He expressed his belief that the professional journalist bears the moral and professional responsibility and lives on this profession and likes not to be confused with the citizen journalist.[/size]
[size=45]Regarding the violations, the Kurdistan Press Syndicate said that the violations and violations are less than in previous years, although so far there are deficiencies in government institutions and also by the journalists themselves, and there are violations and violations, but it is not the same as before.[/size]
[size=45]Hamadameen noted that the Iraqi situation should not be compared with what exists in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, because the Iraqi situation in terms of laws, freedoms and media institutions differs greatly, indicating that the difference is very clear as the situation in the region is much better, according to the testimony of members of the International Federation of Journalists.[/size]
