I would like to see everything you listed. But as I said earlier, that wont happen until the traditions of the country change and the way it's ruled is changed.
And just because papers here don't claim to be examples of media freedom doesn't mean we can't wish they were. And if the country wants to develop into a respected, developed nation it needs to achieve certain levels of media freedom, rather than just touting that it has this already when it clearly doesn't.
The passport issue may not be relevant to freedom of press, but it's a very serious issue nonetheless. To take such an important document is unacceptable. In the UK the recommendation is to never let your passport out of your sight. Even if you check into a hotel and they say they're going to keep it for an hour to take down the details you should insist on staying with it while they do it.
