[edit] Unhelpful introductory sentence

The introductory line of this article, viz., "BERNAMA (from Berita Nasional Malaysia) or Malaysian National News Agency is an authorised body set up by an Act of Parliament in 1967 and started work on 26 May 1968.", says nothing about what this agency is meant to do. It is merely stated here that it is an "authorised body set up" through legislation but the logical, consequent "in order to..." section is glaringly absent. Readers unfamiliar with BERNAMA would not have a clue as to the agency's purpose or function. Please rectify. AppleJuggler 09:04, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
