Home and Abroad News Press is a Hong Kong-based news and publishing institution established on March 8, 2001, with approval from the Hong Kong SAR government. It is currently operating under Home and Abroad News Press (Hong Kong) Company Limited (中外新聞社(香港)有限公司), incorporated on July 6, 2011, one of several Hong Kong corporate vehicles of a similar name under which the agency has operated. It publishes Zhongwai News magazine and operates the Zhongwai News Network. Its correspondent network spans 49 countries and regions, with branch offices in more than ten countries including the United States, Japan, Canada, Germany, France, and Australia.

The agency received approval to report from Taiwan in 2010 and established a Beijing bureau in 2011 with authorization from the State Council’s Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office.

The Chinese American Post (中美郵報) is a Chinese-language weekly newspaper founded on July 4, 1994, in Denver, Colorado, by Chinese scholar Tu Xinshi (屠新時). According to Chinese sources, it is “the only Chinese weekly newspaper founded by Chinese scholars” in the American Midwest. The paper serves Chinese communities across the region, covering news about China, local community affairs, and Chinese culture, as well as visa services and advertisements from moving companies. Chinese media claim the newspaper has gained “international recognition as an overseas Chinese media outlet with a good reputation.” It has received official acknowledgment from several Chinese government entities, including the State Council’s Overseas Chinese Affairs Office (國僑辦), the Department of Press, Communication and Public Diplomacy within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (中國外交部新聞司), the official China News Service (中新社) — under the United Front Work Department of the CCP — and the People’s Daily Overseas Edition (人民日報海外版). During a visit to Colorado in December 2010, Shenzhen municipal overseas Chinese affairs officials met with Tu, praising his work in promoting Chinese culture and discussing potential cooperation opportunities. In February 2017, Tu Xinshi signed a partnership agreement with Huaren Toutiao (華人頭條), a digital platform targeting overseas Chinese communities. The collaboration aimed to expand the newspaper’s audience, particularly on social media.

Established on October 10, 2000, in Surabaya, East Java, the Harian Nusantara describes itself as one of Indonesia’s prominent Chinese-language newspapers with widespread circulation and significant influence. With 20-24 pages daily, the publication reaches readers throughout Indonesia, particularly in eastern regions, with content also circulated to Hong Kong, Macau, and mainland China. Its editorial focus is primarily on Indonesian affairs, with “domestic news” covering Indonesian rather than PRC current events, and dedicated “Chinese community” sections on Chinese community activities within Indonesia. However, the paper publishes extensive coverage of China-related news, acknowledging that news from China occupies the majority of their international coverage as readers’ “ancestral homeland,” including systematic, comprehensive reporting through dedicated China sections. Since 2011, it has collaborated with China Radio International (中國國際廣播電台) to select “Top 10 Southeast Asian News” stories. The paper operates correspondents throughout Indonesia and maintains reporting bureaus in Guangzhou and Hong Kong, indicating institutional ties that facilitate regular coverage of mainland China developments and Indonesian diaspora activities there.
Euro Chinese Daily (歐洲僑報), known in Romanian as Ziarul Chinezii in Lume, is a Chinese-language biweekly newspaper founded in June 2000 and based in Bucharest, Romania’s capital. Published in Chinese, English, and Romanian, the paper focuses on European economic and cultural news, with a particular emphasis on Romania, and claims to be the only Chinese-language newspaper held in Romania’s National Library. It distributes approximately 20,000 copies across Romania and some 20 surrounding European countries. A 2022 Freedom House report on Chinese media influence in Romania identified the paper as a member of the Global Chinese Media Cooperation Forum, a body overseen by China News Service (中國新聞社), a Chinese state media outlet — a connection the outlet’s own “About Us” page confirms. The paper was also among overseas Chinese media represented at the 2019 World Chinese Media Forum, jointly organized by the State Council Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and China News Service. According to its own account, the paper has covered multiple Chinese Communist Party congresses and has accompanied Chinese government delegations on official visits. The website bears an ICP registration, suggesting it is run by a China-based entity. The outlet’s own account describes repeated co-productions with China Central Television (中央廣播電視總台), consecutive invitations to cover China’s annual parliamentary sessions, and commendation from the Chinese Embassy in Romania — patterns typical of Beijing-aligned overseas Chinese media rather than independent outlets. Its 2019 World Chinese Media Forum submission, titled “The Importance and Communication Strategy of Telling China’s Story Well,” won a third-place prize, suggesting editorial alignment with core CCP propaganda directives. The outlet has active accounts on Instagram, X, and Facebook, and an ISSN registration (1582-1978) that confirms it is published in Romania as “Chinezii în lume.”
