Abstract

While the media has demonstrated that it can cover global and governance issues, it neglects the potential to be a responsible partner, especially in developing countries such as Papua New Guinea and to an extent the Pacific. However, this partnership can be strengthened with the media industry and government departments and agencies working to improve their ability to work with each to achieve social, economical and political mileage. Freedom of information and a free media is about upholding the freedom we currently enjoy in a democratic society, as it is about our freedom to express ourselves and be informed appropriately and responsibly.

资讯自由:挑战与前进之路

虽然媒体已经表明它可以报道全球和治理问题，但它忽视了成为负责任的伙伴的潜力，特别是在巴布亚新几内亚等发展中国家，在某种程度上在太平洋地区。然而，这种伙伴关系可以通过媒体行业和政府部门和机构来加强，努力提高他们相互合作的能力，以实现社会、经济和政治效益。信息自由和媒体自由是为了维护我们目前在民主社会中享有的自由，因为它是关于我们表达自己的自由，以及适当和负责任地获得信息的自由。

期刊介绍： While one objective of Pacific Journalism Review is research into Pacific journalism theory and practice, the journal has also expanding its interest into new areas of research and inquiry that reflect the broader impact of contemporary media practice and education. A particular focus is on the cultural politics of the media, including the following issues: new media and social movements, indigenous cultures in the age of globalisation, the politics of tourism and development, the role of the media and the formation of national identity and the cultural influence of New Zealand as a branch of the global economy within the Pacific region. It also has a special interest in climate change, environmental and development studies in the media and communication and vernacular media in the region.
