Golden Phoenix News

The Golden Phoenix, established in 2007, is Myanmar’s only legally authorized Chinese-language media outlet under the Ministry of Information. The newspaper claims it “serves as a bridge of friendship, platform for information, and garden for Chinese education” (友谊之桥梁、信息之平台、华教之园地). Under Executive Director Zhang Chong (張翀), the publication maintains sections covering mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and overseas Chinese community news. In September 2011, Zhang Chong represented the outlet at the 6th World Chinese Media Forum in Chongqing, China. The paper states it aims to promote China-Myanmar friendship and Chinese culture while providing a platform for Myanmar’s Chinese community.
