ChinaTown

ChinaTown, established in Mauritius on July 23, 2005, is a Chinese-language daily newspaper that describes itself as “a patriotic newspaper that loves the motherland—the People’s Republic of China” with a mission to “promote Chinese culture and report on modern China’s development.” The paper publishes eight A3-format pages daily, with its first page covering China’s major policies and “anti-independence, pro-unification” content. Pages 4-5 feature English and French content, while page 8 covers local news, including China-Mauritius relations and Chinese embassy activities. The outlet maintains close relationships with the Chinese Embassy and PRC government contacts, consistently mirroring Chinese Communist Party positions.
