In Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province, China, a major indiscriminate attack occurred on November 11, resulting in 35 deaths and 46 injured. A BBC reporter from the UK faced obstruction and was even treated violently as he was reporting on-site. This incident has sparked heated discussion in international media, with the New York Times and RFI reporting that the Chinese government aims to suppress voices of dissent. In this episode of “Taiwan Talks,” we discuss the state of freedom of press in China. Furthermore, we delve into the arrest of Hong Kong mogul Jimmy Lai as the U.K. and the U.S. press for his release.
