- Types Of Question to Ask

- Writing the Interview

Direct quotations

Direct quotations are word-for-word reports of what the speaker said. These are the exact words of the speaker and are written in complete sentences and enclosed in quotation marks.

Some minor deviation from the exact words is acceptable if it will not change the meaning of what was said, especially if the speaker uses expressions or filler words (“um,” “uh,” etc.) that would just clutter up the quote.

Indirect quotes 

Indirect quotes are a summary of what the speaker said, and quotation marks are not used. The speaker’s ideas are used, but the reporter does not use the speaker’s exact words. 

The advantages of using an indirect quote are that the reporter can condense the substance of what was said without changing the meaning, and it is a good way to make sense out of something the interviewee said that might have been unclear or ungrammatical. 

Indirect quotes can be used as transitional statements. 

Reflection

Actually I want to be a News Anchor and I think this topic (journalists) leads to news anchors too. But later if I did not become a news anchor I should be a teacher or lecturer. I don’t just hope to be a news anchor, teacher, or lecturer. not just hope/expect but I will achieve what I hope or what I dream of. so bismillah I will and I don’t just hope but I have to make it happen and achieve it Aamiin.

Green tourism a growth opportunity for Indonesia, says Minister Uno

5 May 2022David Sexton

Indonesia can position itself as a prominent player in international environmentally sustainable tourism.

The Republic of Indonesia’s Minister of Tourism & Creative Economy Sandiaga Uno has hailed the potential of ‘net zero’ emissions tourism as the world economy seeks to recover from the pandemic.

Minister Uno was sworn into office in the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.

During a recent visit to Melbourne, the minister sat down for an interview with the AIC’s Helen Brown and noted significant investments into the new “sustainable” or “green” economy.

The minister said the potential of “net zero tourism” was large, with new opportunities for green-minded travellers.

“We offer people who travel from Australia [the opportunity] to offset their carbon footprint by activities such as planting mangroves or fixing coral reefs,” Mr Uno said.

Tourists who spend time in the regions might be able to help small villages with their waste management procedures, bringing about additional environmental and societal benefits.

“Those sorts of activities are now available within Indonesia so [a traveller] could actually choose those activities when [they] visit,” he said.

Mr Uno said domestic tourism had already begun to recover in 2022 with domestic travel to Bali and with high vaccination rates, Indonesia was ready to accept more international tourists.

The potential for green tourism was acknowledged as early as a decade ago when the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy in cooperation with the International Labour Organization released a report entitled The Strategic Plan Sustainable Tourism and Green Jobs for Indonesia.

That report described moving towards a greener, climate-resilient tourism economy as “increasingly important to ensure a sustainable development path for the country, not only over the long-term but also in the short-term”.

“Actions are already being taken by the government, employers, enterprises, trade unions, and other key stakeholders to move towards more sustainable patterns of tourism development,” the report stated.

Mr Uno said while much had been learned from the pandemic, there had been much pain.

“It’s probably the toughest time since the ‘97-’98 crisis,” he said.

“This pandemic actually completely rendered the [tourism] sector’s collapse, in terms of the number of tourist arrivals. Millions of jobs were lost; the contributions to the GDP [too].”

Perhaps ironically, Minister Uno left Bali around the same time Australian tourists were forced to.

“I moved most of my operations and activities out of Bali because at that time Bali was hit very, very badly. Hotels [were] closing. Restaurants were empty.”

In a wide-ranging conversation, Mr Uno talked about the digital economy, economic recovery post-pandemic and efforts towards “gastro diplomacy” via its “Spice up the World” campaign.

His time in Melbourne was punctuated with a busy schedule of meetings aimed at reinvigorating a key market for Indonesia.

Australia is one of 43 countries able to visit Indonesia on a tourist visa.

As green as we can be

New York has to live with fossil fuels for a while yet – so making good choices is critical.

Times Union Editorial Board

Jan. 20, 2023

If anyone has a magic wand that can – zzzap! – convert New York’s power supply to all-renewable energy in an instant, by all means, zap away. 

What? No one? That’s what we thought. We’d love to end the use of fossil fuels tomorrow – heck, yesterday – and try to hit the brakes on climate change. But for now, we’re stuck with fossil fuels. On the way to a carbon-free society, we must keep the society we have running. We have to invest in jobs and innovations. We have to heat our homes. We have to build the infrastructure we need next.

New York is walking that tightrope by looking to reduce fossil-fuel use on the one hand, and courting businesses – including high-power-use industries like semiconductor chip manufacturing – on the other, all while working to transition the grid to cleaner energy. That’s the right approach, but inconsistent policy threatens to harm public trust in the mission and undermine its success.

We see that inconsistency in a loophole that may allow companies receiving tax breaks via the state’s “Green CHIPS” program to fall short of their sustainability goals. Those goals, which must be approved by the state, could include targets like renewable energy use, greenhouse gas mitigation or energy-efficient design, according to draft regulations. But as the Times Union’s Rebekah Ward reports, Green CHIPS recipients could miss sustainability targets without penalty by making donations to local nonprofits. Supporting nonprofits is great, but it’s no substitute for reducing emissions. The state must hold these companies to their sustainability commitments.

Another inconsistency: decisions like the Public Service Commission’s approval of the sale of a Western New York power plant to cryptocurrency miners. What’s the public value of this, and does it outweigh putting the state’s green energy targets further out of reach? Crypto mining is neither a significant provider of jobs nor a stabilizer of communities, and the North Tonawanda "peaker" plant, which burns fracked gas, can now run continuously. Environmental groups are suing the PSC over the sale.

Last year Gov. Kathy Hochul signed a moratorium on new fossil fuel-burning crypto mining operations. That was a good first step; the next is to take existing facilities offline.

Power use choices get easier, of course, if we expand the grid’s capacity. And that’s the plan – but right now, we’re in danger of straining the system. The New York Independent System Operator, which runs the state's power grid, warned in 2022 that fossil-fueled resources are retiring faster than clean-energy resources are coming on line. That should worry everyone.

And wind and solar currently contribute only 6 percent of New York's power. So never mind expanded energy production; even replacing our current capacity with clean sources seems a Herculean task.

Asked if New York will be able to power incoming chip fabs while pushing towards its climate goals, U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer brushed worries aside with promises of federal investment in wind and solar: "We're going to increase the production of energy many times."

Great. But that will take time – a lot of time. Downplaying that challenge is the wrong response to legitimate fears over our stability.

New Yorkers get what’s at stake here: This transition won’t be easy. Our leaders can do us a favor by not sugar-coating it – and by not making it harder than it has to be.

We conclude that this news is an editorial news because it contains a lot of the writer’s opinion in it. The example of it is “We’d love to end the use of fossil fuels tomorrow – heck, yesterday – and try to hit the brakes on climate change.” “Great. But that will take time – a lot of time. Downplaying that challenge is the wrong response to legitimate fears over our stability.” And “New Yorkers get what’s at stake here: This transition won’t be easy”
