Video Report: Kalafi Moala details differences between PasiMA and PINA
Pacific Scoop:
Video Report – By Eva Evguenieva
Kalafi Moala, vice-chair of the Pacific’s new media freedom group PasiMA, delivered the keynote speech at the 2010 Pacific Islands Media Association (PIMA) conference in Auckland earlier this month.
Reporting for Pacific Scoop, Eva Evguenieva asked Moala what set PasiMA apart from Suva-based PINA and what caused its formation.
Moala says unlike PINA, PasiMA is not based in Fiji and Samoa-based PasiMA will not be silent over erosions into media freedom in the Pacific region.

Audio Report – By Tupouseini Taumoepeau
Tupouseini Taumoepeau reports that the Pacific Islands Media Association Conference held earlier this month discussed the “new era” of technology and the impact this will have on the media and the Pacific community.
The conference included workshops focussing on current issues and involved a diverse group of networks.
An open panel discussion addressed the issues of media access among Pacific people, what the Pacific media is doing to cater to for this and their views of this shift from traditional to new media.
