Ayub Bhuiyan

It is a great pleasure to extend my sincere greetings to the editor, journalists, all staff, readers and well-wishers of The New Nation on the occasion of the 47th anniversary of this English daily.

Since its establishment under strong leadership of Barrister Mainul Hosein, The New Nation has become part of Bangladesh’s print media landscape.

This anniversary moment is an opportunity to review the important role of responsible journalism in strengthening democracy, ensuring transparency and accountability and shaping public opinion.

Over the long four decades, The New Nation, the country’s oldest English daily, has established itself as a credible voice in the realm of journalism, consistently upholding the values of objectivity, truth, and integrity.

A free, independent, and responsible press is essential to a democratic society.

I hope The New Nation will continue to uphold the principles of truth, fairness, impartiality, and professional integrity while presenting diverse perspectives and serving the interests of the people.

I wish the newspaper continued progress and success in the years ahead.
