Journalists’ Day is an opportunity to honor the tireless contributions of those whose quiet dedication and sensitive spirit give voice to truth. Journalists bear a profound mission: by illuminating darkness, they lay the groundwork for the cultural and economic development of every society, and through their ceaseless efforts, they build a strong bridge of communication between the public and authorities. 
Within the exhibition industry as well, journalists play a deep and decisive role. It is through their presence and reporting that exhibition events—agents of growth and prosperity—penetrate to the deepest layers of society. 
Hereby, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to these noble and truth-seeking individuals on the occasion of Journalists’ Day (August 8) and sincerely appreciate their valuable efforts.
