Established on May 11, 2024, the Nanning International Communication Center was unveiled simultaneously with the city’s convergent media center. The international communication center aims to strengthen cooperation with central media organizations, including Xinhua News Agency, China Daily, and China News Service. It focuses on building a multi-layered international communication platform centered on overseas communication matrix development, foreign cultural exchange promotion, and premium content creation. The center is specifically designed to target ASEAN countries and serve as “a new vehicle for external communication and cultural exchange with regional international influence.” This reflects Nanning’s strategic position as China’s closest provincial capital to ASEAN and the permanent host city of the China-ASEAN Expo.

The judicial branch includes the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (Suprema Corte de Justicia de la Nación), the Council of the Federal Judiciary, and various federal courts. As stated in the constitution, no two separate branches of government may be controlled by a single person or institution, and Mexico City serves as the seat of all federal powers. The federal government represents Mexico in international bodies such as the United Nations.

Guangming Daily

The Guangming Daily, founded on June 16, 1949, is a major national newspaper directly under the Chinese Communist Party’s Central Committee, and administered by the Central Propaganda Department. Initially established by the China Democratic League (中國民主同盟), the paper later became a joint publication of various democratic parties before coming under direct CCP control in 1982. Before it brought directly under the CCP, the paper was a favorite of intellectuals in China, and contributors included the philosopher and historian Feng Youlan (馮友蘭) and the writer and translator Ba Jin (巴金). Following the 1957 Anti-Rightist Campaign, when 18 staff members were labeled “rightists,” including the liberal Chinese journalist and editor-in-chief Chu Anping (儲安平), the paper came under the direct supervision of the CCP’s Propaganda and United Front Work departments. Today, the Guangming Daily Media Group operates multiple publications and reportedly maintains 37 domestic bureaus and correspondents in 23 countries.

The China-Africa Friendship Group (全國政協中非友善小組) was established in Beijing on June 19, 2019, as a specialized working group within China’s National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC). At the first sessions, former CPPCC Vice Chairman Wang Zhengwei (王正偉)  stated that establishing the group was a “concrete action” to implement Xi Jinping’s foreign policy thinking and advance outcomes from the China-Africa Cooperation Forum Beijing Summit. The group aims to “strengthen coordination and in-depth research” to ensure institutional mechanisms and demonstrate the CPPCC’s mission in the new era. Former CPPCC Deputy Chairman and Secretary-General Xia Baolong (夏寶龍) emphasized leveraging the CPPCC’s advantages in talent concentration, intellectual resources, and extensive connections to expand China-Africa friendship exchanges and build a “tighter China-Africa community of shared destiny.”

Alamgir Mohiuddin serves as editor of the newspaper, which operates alongside sister television channel Diganta TV, launched in August 2008. The publication faced legal challenges when Bangladesh’s Information Minister Hasanul Haq Inu accused the newspaper of carrying out “propaganda” against the International Crimes Tribunal, and a Daily Naya Diganta reporter was cautioned for misrepresenting testimony in January 2012.

Guangxi Radio and Television

Guangxi Radio and Television (廣西廣播電視台), also known as GXRTV, is a provincial-level state media organization in China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, operating under the direct leadership of the Propaganda Department of the Chinese Communist Party. The broadcaster’s television operations began in October 1970, though its radio broadcasting started in May 1950, establishing it as one of China’s earlier regional media entities. GXRTV operates 14 channels and frequencies, and claimed 2,000 employees across 34 internal departments as of February 2024. The station’s mission with regard to international communication is to “tell China’s story and Guangxi’s story well” (講好廣西故事, 中國故事), aligning with the directive introduced by Chinese President Xi Jinping in August 2013, which requires Party-state media to strengthen international outreach and enhance China’s global narrative influence. GXRTV has been actively involved in China-ASEAN media cooperation initiatives since 2014, establishing translation centers, signing co-production agreements, and broadcasting Chinese TV shows across ASEAN countries. 

Fujian Provincial People’s Government

The Fujian Provincial People’s Government (福建省人民政府) serves as the executive administrative authority of Fujian province in southeastern China, headquartered in Fuzhou. As a provincial-level government under the State Council of the People’s Republic of China, it oversees economic development, public administration, and policy implementation across Fujian’s nine prefecture-level divisions. The government plays a significant role in China’s engagement with Southeast Asia and Taiwan given Fujian’s coastal geography and historical ties to overseas Chinese communities. It has co-organized major international forums including the 2025 China-Africa Internet Development and Cooperation Forum alongside the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC). The provincial government promotes Fujian’s digital economy, port infrastructure, and cross-strait exchanges while implementing directives from the Chinese Communist Party’s provincial committee and central government policies. The province is also a “crucial hub” for information activities directed at Taiwan, including covert activities.

The newspaper, like all CCP-run outlets, states explicitly that it adheres to “correct public opinion guidance” and propaganda directives.
