PETALING JAYA: The participation of the Malaysian Women Journalists Association (Pertama) in the National Journalists Day 2022 (Hawana 2022) on May 29 is not only to support journalism in the country but also to highlight the crucial role of women journalists in recording the nation's history and milestone events, said Pertama president Sariha Mohd Ali.

Hawana 2022 will be officiated by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob in Melaka after it was held for the first time in 2018 to recognise the role of Malaysian journalists and media practitioners.
