The CEO & Editor in Chief of National Herald Tribune and Daily Al Akhbar Ghulam Akbar explained the important role that reading plays in developing impressive writing skills.  Ghulam Akbar mentioned that only good readers can become good writers as reading helps in producing good content for writing.  Furthermore, he mentioned that the commercial interest involved in the writing industry has led to the disappearance of many famous newspapers and magazines.  The senior journalist and Editor in The News Amir Ghauri mentioned that not everyone can be a good writer and a good storyteller. To be a good storyteller and an impressive writer, one needs to do extensive reading.  Amir Ghauri further mentioned that along with reading, the ability to think independently and to analyze the text is also important. Additionally, he advised the students who want to pursue writing as a career, to start reading and analyzing the content.  The renowned script writer Naila Ansari briefly explained the Pakistani Media Industry and how the students can succeed in this field.  According to Naila Ansari, knowledge is required to write well. Students need to gather content by traveling, reading, and by keeping good company. Furthermore, she added that it is very unfortunate that students today do not read anymore.  Naila Ansari also highlighted the role that is to be played by the parents in promoting the reading habit in children.  The world record holder mountaineer and the writer Saad Munawar mentioned that the Power and the Value of Pen are much greater than just earning.  Saad Munawar advised the students to ponder over how they want to contribute to the Country once they start writing.  Lastly, he stated that if one has the skill of writing and you have the ability to make people relate with your writing, then do not let anyone discourage you.  The webinar was attended by 35 participants and was moderated by the Digital Media Executive at CGSS Laraib Fatima Hassan.
