Topic: Pressure on the Press: State of Self-Censorship in Hong Kong + 15

Is self-censorship in the Hong Kong press more common today than seven years ago? If you think so, then you join more than 70% of the city’s local reporters who say the same thing, according to a recent poll by the Hong Kong Journalists Association. Join the debate on Tuesday September 4th and share your thoughts! The Foreign Correspondents’ Club of Hong Kong and the Asia chapter of the Asian-American Journalists Association host an all-star panel of veteran journalists to discuss the future of this city’s press freedoms fifteen years after its return to China.
