The United Daily News (聯合日報) is a Chinese-language broadsheet in the Philippines and traditionally a cornerstone of the Filipino-Chinese media landscape. Founded in 1973 by Cheng Kim Tiao, it was formed through the merger of two historic titles: the Kong Li Po (公理報), established in 1911, and the Great China Press (大中華日報), launched after World War II. Notably, it was the only Chinese-language daily authorized to operate during the nation’s martial law era. Historically aligned with pro-Taiwan perspectives, the paper provides essential coverage of local politics, business, and community heritage. Under the legendary leadership of Sy Yinchow (施穎洲), its long-serving editor-in-chief and the “dean of Chinese media,” the publication cemented its reputation for integrity. The paper announced in 2016 that it would cease publication, but later continued. Today, it remains a key voice within the Chinese diaspora community in Manila, offering traditional Chinese reporting alongside its English-language counterpart, United News.
