South China Morning Post

[Matthew Wong]

One of the news websites I visit daily is the South China Morning Post (SCMP). The SCMP is considered an international newspaper, but focuses on Hong Kong. It is currently owned by Jack Ma of Alibaba. I consider this as my go-to for news on Hong Kong and mainland China. Occasionally, there are good articles on Taiwan and Singapore. 

Yesterday, Professor Dube mentioned the upcoming Communist Party Congress. This morning I ran across a video on Facebook (by the SCMP) that gives a summary of what Xi Jinping has done as leader of China these past five years.

Enjoy!

Matthew - The SCMP is an essential resource for those interested in China. Thanks for highlighting it. I use the SCMP app on my phone, which is frequently updated and works well. There are other English language newspaper sites for China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, but SCMP is probably the best for general readers. Another good site is Hong Kong Free Press.
