It is a monthly cultural,
literary and general magazine issued in Qaraqush/ Baghded. It was issued in June
2003 to be the first publication officially issued for our people in the
Plain of Nineveh in the aftermath of the last regime change.
It was issued in eight pages
(half-size) in two colors till No. 24 in 2006. The journal became fully colored
following support from Mr. Sarkis Aghajan. It now issued in four colours size
¾.
The editorial staff managed to
issue special issues of the journal to cover special occasions and events; for
we issued a No. to cover the targeting by terrorists of the university students
in Baghdede, and another on the terrorist attack on Our Lady of Salvation
Church inBaghdad . The journal has managed to draw the attention of
many writers, men of literature and cultured people from among our Chaldean
Syriac Assyrian people as well as others from the other components of the Iraqi
people who contribute to the journal with their various essays, stories, and
features. It has won the confidence of all and has an electronic website on the
internet. The journal has been issued regularly every month.
Our ambition is:
1. to
continue with issuing special Nos. to cover nationalist and religious
occasions.
2. increase
the printed issue from 1000 copies to 3000 to cover all the areas where our
people live.
3. offer
renumerating rewards to contributors , writers, editors and distributers to
encourage them to continue with their contributions.
4. launching
a new and modern electronic website on the internet as we are at present hosted
by a site belonging to a member of our people abroad.
The above was a briefing on the
Voice of Baghdede Jounal, with our thanks and appreciation to all who have been
supporting us and helped with the continuation of the journal till now.
