Journalism taught me to be courageous, responsible, says cartoonist Lat

BATU GAJAH: The opportunity to hold a pen and notebook as a crime desk reporter left a big impact on famous cartoonist Datuk Lat, or Datuk Mohd Nor Khalid, who was announced as the recipient of the National Journalists’ Day (Hawana) Award 2023 on Sunday (May 28).

However, he said the so-called "power" and advantage of carrying a media card was not a ticket for the father of four to abuse the facility, instead, he used it as a tool to make himself more courageous and responsible.
