Information and Broadcasting Minister Zahir Uddin Swapan said that mass media and social media play a vital role in shaping people's minds. Speaking as the chief guest at the inauguration of six short-term courses at the Bangladesh Cinema and Television Institute (BCTI) on Sunday, he noted that the growing influence of these platforms makes establishing ethical control one of the major challenges of the time.
The minister explained that people naturally tend to listen, understand, and believe others, which allows influential figures to shape public thinking. While this can have positive effects, it also carries risks of misuse. He emphasized that film is a powerful medium capable of deeply affecting emotions and urged that its power be used for the welfare of humanity and civilization.
In his address, Swapan advised participating students to balance technical knowledge with ethical standards and a sense of responsibility. He formally inaugurated the six short-term courses and thanked all involved in organizing the event.
