It is great opportunity for all Iraqi and Kurdish Massmedia to improve their knowledge about vairiety of subjects. Promoting Massmedia is really needed all over the country. but as i see, the government itself has not been interested in this subject, because it is partly or indirectly is going to affect their corruption. and their corrupted rulling of the people.

keep it up.....good job.
