the close ties between Malaysia and Oman.The Omani delegation was given a briefing on Bernama by Deputy Editor-in-Chief (International News Service) Ahmad Zukiman Zain.
The visitors were also given a tour of Bernama Radio24, Bernama
TV and Editorial Department including
the Arabic Desk as well as the Non-Aligned Movement, NAM News Network (NNN),
run by Bernama.
A member of the delegation, Zuhair described the visit as good
exposure to share experience.
“Based on the briefing and viewing today, I find Bernama
as a versatile news agency which is different from others.
“The services provided by Bernama is wide because it covers
audio-visual, radio, online news and photographs…I hope Bernama will continue
to be successful,” he said.
