PWI Lampung to issue white book

LAMPUNG, South Sumatra: Confronted with the presence of bogus
journalists, the Indonesian Journalists' Association (PWI)'s
Lampung chapter will issue a white book containing complete data
on its members and regulations.

PWI Lampung vice chairman A. Rio Teguh said on Thursday that
the book would help the public, especially those who deal with
journalists everyday, such as officers in the government or
private institutions, identify PWI members.

Riding on the euphoria of the reform movement, Lampung has
seen numerous press organizations, newspapers, magazines and
radio stations being set up.

"The public often think's that all journalists are PWI
members," he said.

Rio added that the book would also contain the press law and
the journalist's code of ethics.
