PUTRAJAYA, May 16 ― The Ministry of Communications will prioritise the participation of veteran artistes in its events or programmes to ensure that they could continue to showcase their work.
Minister Fahmi Fadzil said this approach could be implemented at the agency and departmental levels under the ministry.
“Any event organised by the Ministry of Communications that requires the presence of artistes should prioritise the veterans…please consider and give opportunities to veteran artistes to continue contributing to the country and encourage them to continue their creative work.
