Your First Encounter with the News

from Talkback Hosted by BFM Media

The “Heard the News?” project, launched today in Shah Alam as part of New Straits Times’ 180th anniversary, will bring newspapers into classrooms across the country, aiming to get students engaging with current affairs from a young age. We take this opportunity to ask you: When did you first become aware of the news or current affairs? What did it? Image Credit: Pexels
