Thai Jiaranai Group

Written by Editors on .

Thai Jiaranai Group Public Company Limited (泰國亞洲大衆集團（大衆）有限公司) is a Bangkok-headquartered conglomerate with branch offices and representative offices in Beijing, Shantou, Hong Kong, and Singapore. It is the parent company of Thailand Headlines (泰國頭條新聞) — which describes itself as an outlet devoted to “telling China’s story,” an official CCP phrase for external propaganda — and describes itself as one of Thailand’s most influential ethnic Chinese business groups, claiming repeated commendation from Thailand’s Privy Council and designation as an official cooperation partner of multiple Thai government departments and state institutions. Its leadership, according to its own materials, has been received by senior officials on both the Chinese and Thai sides. In its corporate mission, the group describes following the principle of “transmitting positive energy” (a clear reference to Xi Jinping’s media control language). The group operates across media, commercial trade, event planning, real estate, cross-border e-commerce, program production, and charitable activities. Its media portfolio includes Thailand Headlines (泰國頭條新聞), ManGu Magazine (曼谷雜誌), and Thailand Diligence Bureau (泰國勤報局), with a claimed combined following across platforms exceeding ten million. In May 2023, Thailand Headlines publisher Guo Rui was arrested by Thai police on allegations of using her connections with a senior police official to demand 14 million baht from a Chinese suspect in exchange for dropping charges. She was released on bail. A earlier 2020 article on China Daily‘s website, republished from a provincial broadcaster, identified Zhang Cheng (章骋), also known as Zhang Peiyan (章培炎), as both chairman of CITIC Asia Investment International Co., Ltd. in Thailand (泰國中信亞洲投資國際有限公司) and a senior executive director of Thai Jiaranai Group. This would appear to link the Thai Jiaranai Group and China’s CITIC, one of the country’s largest state-owned conglomerates. However, a critical online post made to Blogspot in May 2015, which has since been deleted, alleged a broader pattern of fabricated institutional affiliations by Zhang — including falsely claiming to represent Alibaba in Thailand (“阿里巴巴集團在泰全權代理人”) and falsely presenting the group as embassy-affiliated (“冒充大使館”). This raises unanswered questions about the nature of the Thai Jiaranai Group’s connections with China. The Thai Jiaranai Group also operates Black Gold Entertainment (墨金娛樂), described as Thailand’s largest Sino-Thai cross-border multi-channel network, managing influencers and online celebrities for advertising and livestream commerce. The group additionally serves as the largest agent in Greater China for the Thailand Privilege Visa Program, and runs a real estate division.

West Pacific Press

Written by Editors on .

West Pacific Press (西太平洋通訊社), or WPP, is a Taipei-registered news agency incorporated on May 4, 2023, under Taiwan’s company registry (統編: 94104181), describing itself as “the first and only” Asia-Pacific media platform focused on West Pacific nations. WPP’s own website identifies it as a subsidiary of Excellence Media Group (卓越媒體集團). The company was founded by Wei Botao (韋伯韜), a former Republic of China government official who served as Director-General of the Executive Yuan’s budget office from June 10, 1996 to May 20, 2000, and chairman of Taiwan Tobacco and Liquor Corporation, and who has a documented history of cross-strait business engagement with Xiamen — including a 2011 meeting with Xiamen Mayor Liu Keqing (劉可清) to discuss establishing a joint venture financial company in the city’s Cross-Strait Financial Center. Wei’s published writing includes explicit advocacy for PRC geopolitical superiority, arguing that China practices a benevolent “kingly way” (王道) in world affairs. Xu Banghao (徐邦浩), president of Excellence Magazine (卓越雜誌) and head of Excellence Media Group, became WPP’s chairman and responsible person in September 2024 following an internal restructuring. Despite its ambitious self-description, WPP’s paid-in capital stands at just NT$325,000 and its registered address is shared by over 100 other companies — a common virtual office arrangement in Taiwan that raises questions about the company’s physical infrastructure, though WPP may operate from a separate location not reflected in its corporate registration. Alongside Taiwan defense and security reporting, WPP’s lifestyle section carries content sourced directly from the Fujian Southeast Network (福建東南網), a Fujian provincial state media outlet, including multiple items about Xiamen’s Huli District, alongside unedited commercial press releases accepted as editorial content. WPP signed media cooperation agreements with Korean outlets Korea Focus and Korea Daily in 2019.
