IPPTAR Plays Role In Shaping Gen Z As Ethical Communicators
GENERAL KUALA LUMPUR, June 23 (Bernama) – The Tun Abdul Razak Broadcasting and Information Institute (IPPTAR) plays a key role in shaping the new generation—referred to as Gen Z—to become ethical communicators, said its Director, Roslan Ariffin. He said that in pursuit of this goal, emphasis and guidance on communication ethics must be nurtured from an early stage in tandem with the advancement of digital technology, so that the voices of the new generation become a positive force in communication. 'Today's generation is incredibly fast—everything is fast, speech is fast, WhatsApp is fast—and their voices and ways of connecting transcend boundaries… so we need to give them proper guidance and emphasis, with the hope that they communicate ethically. 'This also aligns with the theme of IPPTAR's Open Day celebration tomorrow, which is 'Suara Generasi, Kuasa Komunikasi (Voice of the Generation, Power of Communication),' he said when appearing as a guest on BERNAMA TV's Ruang Bicara programme tonight. Commenting further, Roslan said that IPPTAR Open Day, now in its second year, serves as a platform to attract young people to come and learn more about the institute. 'The content we have prepared is largely aimed at drawing in this group, most of whom today aspire to be influencers—but to become influencers, they must first be good communicators. 'By getting to know IPPTAR, they may one day come to regard it with affection and pride as an institution that educates and trains them in the world of communication,' he said. He added that in facing the latest technologies, including the explosion of artificial intelligence (AI), IPPTAR continues to progress and evolve to become a leading training institution in the field of communication to meet current needs. In conjunction with IPPTAR Open Day 2025 tomorrow, the public will have the opportunity to explore and understand AI technology and its significance to the media and broadcasting industry, in addition to participating in various engaging activities.

"The National Day 2025 celebration will be held on Aug 31 at Dataran Putrajaya, while this year's Malaysia Day celebration will occur on Sept 16 in Penang in line with the rotational practice whereby the location alternates each year between Sabah, Sarawak, and Peninsular Malaysia," he said.

Fahmi also announced that 14 complementary events will be held, including the Merdeka Countdown, the 2025 Kembara Merdeka Jalur Gemilang, and Wayang Pacak Merdeka (open-air cinema). He added that the 1 Rumah 1 Jalur Gemilang initiative, introduced last year to encourage Malaysians to fly the national flag, will continue this year with two additional new clusters, the industrial cluster and the government agency cluster. "In 2024, we successfully implemented this programme across five clusters, with a total of 698 activities carried out. The five participating clusters were Education, Higher Education, Health, Security, and Community. "This programme will encourage Malaysians to fly the Jalur Gemilang at their homes, offices, business premises, government agencies and their vehicles," he said. Fahmi also reminded the public to observe proper etiquette when flying the Jalur Gemilang, including not using damaged or torn flags.

He said the practice highlights the spirit of unity and reinforces bonds among people from various backgrounds. "I saw a very joyful atmosphere, with children, RTM staff and representatives from IPPTAR (Tun Abdul Razak Broadcasting and Information Institute) all coming together to take part in the sacrificial ritual. "I hope that initiatives like this will continue to strengthen the bonds among us, Insya-Allah," he told reporters at RTM's Aidiladha sacrificial event held at Masjid Muhammadi, Angkasapuri, today. A total of 13 cows were sacrificed, contributed by RTM staff and members of the mosque's committee, including one from Fahmi himself for the programme. Fahmi, who is also the Lembah Pantai member of parliament, said his parliamentary office had distributed 76 sacrificial cows to residents in the constituency. "Outside Lembah Pantai, another five cows were sacrificed through the efforts of our team. Alhamdulillah, this reflects the strong cooperation within the community," he said. He also reaffirmed his commitment to supporting similar programmes in the future, as they have proven effective in fostering unity among the people. Meanwhile, Masjid Muhammadi Angkasapuri chairman Datuk Mohamed Irwan Mansor said more than 200 individuals participated in the mosque's sacrificial event. "Alhamdulillah, the sacrificial rites were successfully carried out with the involvement of people from all walks of life, including youth, women and children who added to the festive atmosphere," he said.
