All UTM staff are welcome to submit any type of news, hard or soft.

Hard news is the up-to-the-minute news and events that are reported immediately, a kind of fast-paced news that usually appears on the front page of newspapers. Stories that fall under the umbrella of hard news often deal with topics like business, politics, international news, war, economics, and crime – serious in nature.

On the flip side, the arts, entertainment and lifestyle stories like gotong royong, potluck, and team bonding are considered to be soft news in nature.
Any types of news reported must include information that answers the following questions:
1. What happened?
2. Who was involved?
3. Where and when did it happen?
4. Why did it happen?
