CCPur, December 17 2009:
Then daily news name Gosem in Thadou-Kuki lingual first copy launching will be held on 18 December at 11 am sharp at Manipur press Club, Majorkhul Imphal in which Pu Ngamthang Haokip Ex-Minister will be the Chief Guest, Pu Thangboi Sitlhou Director DIPR as Guest of Honour and Rev Stephen Touthang Youth Secretary Manipur Basptist Convention will be the dedicating Minister of the launching function.
The Gosem Lawm is a conglomeration of individuals concerned about and pledged to act to redeem,the detoriating social,economic and religious firnaments of the society in general,and of the Chin-Kuki-Mizo society in particular.
The Lawm believes that the common man needs to be given oppurtunities to develop and grow in every sphere of life.
For this to happen,he needs to be made aware of his rights,both individual and collective,under the changed environs of a democratic polity.Unless the poorest person in the remotest village id\s given equal rights,enabled to fearlessly stahd up for his rights and equally dutifully come forward to perform his duties,firm in the knowledge that he too is a stakeholder in society as much as the village Chief is,any attempt to reform society will only be patchwork.
It is in view of these beliefs, in brief, that the Lawm decided to contribute its mite to effet,or to try to effect, changes and identified the priority areas for intervention.
The need for an informed and informative media as a means to waken the common man to his rights and duties assumes top priority,especially in view of the absence on any credible mass communication medium in the target society.
The Lawm therefore conceived and set into motion a project to launch a daily news paper,The Gosem" daily.These are the vision statement of The Gosem Lawm.
