Economic Considerations

The freedom of press is one aspect that leaders from the West often criticise about China. As former British colony, Hong Kong has been able to preserve its special status with constitutional rights and liberties that also include the freedom of press. However, in recent years, sentiments of increased influence from Beijing have led to fears that it would curb the freedoms enjoyed by residents of the Special Administrative Region. However, instead of clear unambiguous interferences, Beijing has opted for an indirect approach that is predominantly characterised by the salience of economic considerations in reporting news binding the media outlets closer to the position of Beijing. This article shows that the South China Morning Post has undergone an editorial shift that moves it closer to the position of the Chinese government.

Double Digit

The South China Morning Post reported China's first confirmed COVID-19 case may be traced as early as November 17, 2019. On December 8, 2019, Wuhan, China had its first patient with symptoms similar to coronavirus. The disease was believed to have emerged in the Huanan seafood market. By December 15, the total number of infections stood at 27—the first double-digit daily rise was reported on December 17—and by December 20, the total number of confirmed cases had reached 60. December 31, 2019, China informs the World Health Organization (WHO) about a cluster of cases of pneumonia in Wuhan, Hubei Province. The virus is still not understood. March 11, 2020, the WHO assesses that COVID-19 can be officially described as a pandemic due to the rapid increase in the number of cases outside China. As coronavirus cases began to skyrocket, libraries had to function in unique situations. The purpose of this chapter is to provide an in-depth review of libraries and case studies amid the COVID 19 pandemic.
