During the 2026 China-ASEAN Urban Media Roundtable, Lijiang Publishing House agreed to cooperate with the Nanning Media Convergence Center (南寧市融媒體中心) to expand its publication footprint overseas, part of a history of collaboration between the two groups that has included the co-production of the radio drama Scattered Red Star (散落的紅星), a story of the 1934 “Battle of Xiang River” (湘江戰役) that honors casualties that happened in the Long March. 

Willax Televisión

Willax Televisión (威萊克斯電視台) is a Peruvian free-to-air television channel based in Lima. It was founded in 2010 by journalists Gilberto Hume and Cecilia Valenzuela as an online news channel and later moved to cable television. In November 2015 it was bought by the business group of Erasmo Jesús Rolando Wong Lu Vega (黃業生), a Chinese-Peruvian businessman and former owner of the Wong supermarket chain. Wong’s group, which holds a majority stake in the channel, turned it into a general-interest broadcaster on Lima’s digital terrestrial service. The channel’s formal ownership is opaque. Reporters Without Borders’ Media Ownership Monitor found that 99.99 percent of its shares were held by Latin America Media Investment Ltd, a company not constituted in Peru, so its ultimate shareholders could not be verified. International media have described Willax as conservative and right-wing, and Wong signed the Madrid Charter, a manifesto opposing left-wing governments in Ibero-America. Willax nonetheless has close ties to Chinese state content distribution. In November 2024, it signed a trilateral agreement with Chongqing Jiazuo Film and Culture Media (重慶佳左影視文化傳媒有限公司) and Classic Media China Internacional SAC (經典傳媒中國國際有限公司) to air a “China Time Slot” (中國時段) of Spanish-dubbed Chinese series and documentaries. The launch was guided by China’s State Council Information Office and National Radio and Television Administration, and co-hosted by the propaganda office of the Chongqing CCP Committee. Wong also presides over the association that manages Lima’s Chinese-funded Centro de la Amistad Peruano China (Peruvian-Chinese Friendship Center).

In a 2025 Century News report, Hung said that the organization has had “many exchanges” with Chinese official media, such as Xinhua News Agency, People’s Daily, and the United Front’s China News Service, or CNS. One example is a 2026 media exchange trip to Shanghai and Anhui organized by the CCP’s official All-China Journalists Association (中華全國新聞工作者協會). Hung’s Century News also claims to be a member of CNS’s World Chinese Media Co-Operation Union (世界華文媒體合作聯盟), though the union does not list Century News as a member on its website. Xinhua and the ACJA have referred to the organization as the “Taiwan Chinese Veteran Journalists Association” (台灣中華資深記者會) — removing the title “Republic of China” (中華民國) from the name — an expression of China’s contested claim over Taiwan’s sovereignty.

South China Morning Post

The South China Morning Post (SCMP) is Hong Kong’s oldest English-language daily newspaper.

It runs a print version, a website, and an app, and also offers additional products such as “SCMP Plus,” a business news platform, “This Week in Asia,” a weekly Asia-focused magazine, and “Young Post,” a product tailored for students. In 1993, Malaysian business magnate Robert Kuok purchased the paper from British media tycoon Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp., which had owned it since 1986. In December 2015, the Chinese e-commerce and retail giant Alibaba acquired SCMP and its associated products for 266 million US dollars. Discussing the acquisition, Alibaba former executive vice chairman Joe Tsai said that the deal was an important step toward giving international readers a better understanding of SCMP as well as Alibaba, adding that SCMP has “a unique vantage point that none of the western organisations have” when it comes to covering China. Since the acquisition, observers have noted that SCMP’s coverage has become less critical of China and increasingly friendly to the CCP, a trend that has accelerated since the implementation of the 2020 National Security Law. Even after the acquisition, the South China Morning Post remains blocked inside of China.
