Media assess role in covering BRICS

Media in the five member countries of the BRICS should deepen their cooperation, tell great stories and inject more dynamism into the partnership, a senior leader in the Communist Party of China said on Wednesday.

Liu Yunshan, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, made the remarks at a meeting with journalists attending the BRICS Media Forum in Beijing.

BRICS comprises five major developing countries-Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. The forum was a preparatory event ahead of the ninth BRICS Leaders Meeting in Xiamen, Fujian province, in September.
