China and UK Discuss Media Collaboration
National Radio and Television Administration (NRTA) Deputy Director Dong Xin (董昕) met with Douglas Alexander, UK Minister of State for Trade Policy and Economic Security, on April 11 to discuss deepening Sino-British audiovisual cooperation. The officials exchanged views on implementing the “China-UK Cultural Industry Policy Dialogue” during Alexander’s visit to China. According to the NRTA, Dong expressed China’s willingness to “further deepen policy communication, content cooperation, and personnel exchanges” in the broadcasting sector. Alexander agreed with China’s proposals and stated that the UK “highly values strengthening cooperation with China in broadcasting and television.” During his visit, Alexander raised concerns with senior Chinese and Hong Kong officials about Liberal Democrat MP Wera Hobhouse being denied entry to Hong Kong. Hobhouse was refused entry at Hong Kong International Airport on April 10 without explanation, marking the first time a British MP has faced such treatment since 1997.
