Although wired and wireless con- munications, through the work of the Cable and Wireless Co., Ltd. and the Hong Kong Telephone Company Limited, are possible, many businessmen still resort to the great tradition of "com munication through the post, partly, because one can say amore in one's letter than in a telegram or a telephone con- versation, and partly because it is the cheapest form of communications

If one wishes to send parcels, it is also possible but the post offion is very strict about pertain things which are not allowed to be ment by post, because they usually constitute an eis- ment of danger. Things like explosives, weapons, inflammable material, alcohol and poisone are not allowed to be sent through the post office.

If one wishes to keep one's resid- ential or business address confidential, one can always rent a post office box (P,0. Box), which will become the col- lecting point or one's mail, A PIO.

A fee of $40 per year in charged for a P.0. Box if rented at the Generál Post Office, the Taimshatsui Post Office or the Kowloon Central Post Office, and $36 if rented elsewhere.

For business enterprises, the post office provides large sacks with number tage to collect their letters. These sacks can be rented. Businessmen have also known that it is possible to print reply cards in magazines and newspapers and these can be returned by the custom ars without using stamps which are aotum ally later paid by the businessmen. These reply cards are convenient in that thay save considerable time that may be spent in buying ataspa and besides, auch a method is one way of arousing public interest in, and response to, say, product.

Question: (2) What do you mean by "

dom of the press"? does it imply?

Answers

Throughout the English-speaking world, there is probably no other legal doctrine more sacredly and zealously up- held than the one under which the world of Journalian has flourished, freedom of the prese which gives the newspapTM ers abaólate freedom to print and oir- culate fearlessly and liberally,

Freedom of the press ensure the

complete abolition of government's con- sorship. In Hong Kong, for instance, there is not a Government department to check the news and the other materials a nevapaper, wishes to publish before their publication. We must not associ➡ ate the Government Information Services": Department (G.I.S, as commonly known

30% the newspapermen): as a sort of press can- BOT. This department does not, and will Burely not, pass any censorship on our press for if that happens it would be а mockery to British Justice under which this freadog to publish without fear prevails. Within G.1.8. there does exist the Hilm Censorship Section, which checka and approves films before public showings

In a country where there is no freem dom of the prass, newspapers are virtu- ally under the control of

the stata No newspaper is allowed to print any- thing which the government considers 10 likely to bring harm to it, even if it happens to be true. The government can thud, ensure that members of the public can only know what it wants then to know. The truth is never revealed, and as long as this is no, the inhabitanti of the country live under tyranny.

Freedom of the Prese har down the ages come to imply that firstly, the newspaper reserves the right to point out the faults of the government and its officials and to bring any irregularities in the government to the attention of the public. In a sense the press is the community's 'watch¬dog'. The praga. can also publish criticisms of any resi- dant or institution so long as the pri acy of either one is not intruded in do- ing

Secondly, a newspaper la not prom ibited to gain access to sources of information that concerns public affairs, nor is it prevented from publishing opin- ions on public affairs. Thus the edit- orial of a newspaper is given absolute

freedom to comment on a diversity of Mater

subjects that deal with the welfare of the community. Specialist writers "have also been given this freedom to write on the activities, economic or political, social or educational, of the community." By reading the articiles of these writers, members of the public can be accurately. and truthfully informed of what is

guing: 'on' an she community. It is abunde antly clear that without freedom of the press newspapers are unable to fulfil one of their primary aims, and that is to inform the public,

· Thirdly, a newspaper cannot be pre-

by the intervention of the government or by an order of the court. Any legal action against a newspaper aunt come after the publication of the nova or opinion, and never before..

Freedom of the press also implies that the government is not permitted to introduce arbitary or excessive taxation on a newspaper, otherwise it is possible and very eary, for the goverament to stop

necessary, bafore a reader's letter can be printed, for the editor of the nOKE- paper to have the true name and address of the writer, as a sign of the writer's genuine desire to write on facts and not with the motive of stirring trouble for everyons. Journalists, too, are aware of the seriousness that accompanies the violation of the law of libel which pre- venta the freedom of the press from be- ing abused.

When we read our newspaper, we neda not even pause to doubt if the complete truth has been, reported, or if certain news or opinions have been intentionally withheld from publication. Unless the

presa in the country has been denied this freedom by which we are accurately informed of public affairs, we may think otherwise.
