Myanmar media calls for more inclusive, balanced global narrative

The media offers a critical tool for cooperation among countries in the Global South, which is vital in building a more inclusive and balanced global narrative, said U Ko Ko, Chairman of the Yangon Media Group in Myanmar.

He made the comments in a video message to greet the opening of the 12th Global Video Media Forum(VMF), held on Dec 3 and 4 in Quanzhou City of east China's Fujian Province, under the theme "Intelligence Without Frontiers, Vision Beyond The Horizon -- Media's Role in Communication and Cultural Exchange."

The VMF is an annual professional journalism forum launched by the CCTV Video News Agency (CCTV+) in 2011, focusing on the latest video content communication and innovation trends, and providing a highly specialized, unique and interactive platform for domestic and foreign media peers.
