South African Broadcasting Corporation

The South African Broadcasting Corporation (南非國家廣播電視台), or SABC, is South Africa’s state-owned public broadcaster, established in August 1936 and headquartered in Johannesburg. Designated as a Schedule 2 Major Public Entity under the Public Finance Management Act — a classification for South Africa’s largest and most significant state-owned enterprises that report directly to Parliament — SABC operates five television channels and 18 radio stations, making it one of the largest state broadcasters in Africa. Opposition politicians and civil society groups have sometimes criticized the broadcaster for allegedly functioning as a mouthpiece for the ruling African National Congress, similar to accusations leveled during the apartheid era when it served the National Party government. CEO David Makubyane participated in China Media Group’s December 2025 Silk Road Television Community Summit in Yangjiang. Mbali Lesabe, current affairs TV news editor, participated in the February 2026 Belt and Road Media Cooperation Forum journalist delegation.

The embassy drew attention during the 2021 ‘Vaccinagate’ scandal, in which 487 Peruvian officials and elites were secretly vaccinated with courtesy doses sent by Chinese vaccine manufacturer Sinopharm before the public rollout. Medical journal The Lancet reported that 1,200 of the 3,200 courtesy doses were delivered to the embassy, which did not respond to questions about the doses it received.

The Haixi MCN Cross-Strait Youth Base  (海西MCN兩岸青年三創基地) is a livestream e-commerce incubator for Taiwanese youth, launched on November 16, 2022, in Xiamen’s Huli District, Fujian Province, a key cross-strait economic zone home to over 1,600 Taiwanese-funded enterprises.

The facility provides early-stage entrepreneurs with shared workspace, training, mentorship, and operational support to help launch their businesses. It also operates as a Multi-Channel Network (MCN) — a type of agency central to China’s booming livestream shopping industry that manages influencers, connects them with brands, and handles content production and supply chains. MCNS, importantly, have also played a key strategic role for China in its external propaganda strategy. Haixi MCN offers residents access to more than 50 livestreaming rooms, digital marketing training on livestreaming platforms such as Douyin and Kuaishou, rent subsidies, and startup funding support. The base has held public e-commerce training courses, digital marketing bootcamps, and short-video entrepreneurship workshops in partnership with local government bodies and major platforms, training over 3,000 people. It also claims over 70 resident Taiwanese enterprises. In 2024, the base established a product showroom on Taiwan’s Kinmen Island, just six kilometers off the coast of China’s Fujian province, aiming to bring Chinese e-commerce and livestreaming business models to the island. According to an April 2024 report from People’s Daily Online, the MCN initiative is a state-guided project managed by the Huli District Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macao Affairs Office (湖里區委台港澳辦) and the Huli District Committee Organization Department (湖里區委組織部) alongside the local United Front Work Department (湖里區委統戰部), whose role, according to the report, is to facilitate “national conditions” (國情) training — a reference to ideological and patriotic education — through economic and digital media incentives.
