Adibah, who is suffering from diabetes and requires full-time care, is a respected figure in Malaysia’s journalism and literary circles.
She is also known for her role as “Cikgu Bedah” in the comedy film Adik Manja, Fahmi said Adibah had served as editor at “The Star” and the “New Straits Times”, and was also the first woman to be appointed news editor at Berita Harian.
In June 2024, she was named the 2023 National Journalism Laureate at the Malaysian Journalism Night, in conjunction with the 2023 MPI-Petronas Malaysian Journalism Awards.
Fahmi said young journalists should emulate Adibah’s dedication to the profession.
“My hope for young journalists is that they understand the struggles of their predecessors and realise that they are not just reporting. They play a role in shaping an independent and sovereign nation while maintaining professional standards and ethics,” he said.
