Khalid had special sajak as farewell gift

The Utusan people certainly know how to appreciate their staff, especially those who have served the company for so long and so loyally. They threw a farewell party for outgoing Editor in Chief Khalid Mohd, who is on long leave before retirement.

They even did a special book showing his years as a dedicated journalist in the Utusan family. Khalid even had a sajak dedicated to him and this was published in last Sunday's Mingguan Malaysia. Khalid surely cant ask for more.

It's now Aziz Ishak's turn. The Utusan editorial team is far stronger than that of Berita Harian, according to people who know the story inside out. BH may show more commercialism in their approach to running the newspaper but Utusan have more editorial blood in their make up.

We will see how Aziz progresses in his work and where he's taking his paper to!
