On 18 December 2023, Apple Daily founder Jimmy Lai, a symbol of press freedom in Hong Kong, will face trial under national security charges for which he could spend the rest of his life in prison.

After blocking access to social media and jamming several radio stations for several weeks, the Guinean authorities have suspended the broadcasting of three TV channels without warning on “national security” grounds.

RSF calls on the candidates to the 13 January 2024 presidential election, and all political parties running for the parliamentary election set on the same day, to commit to media reforms.

RSF together with other press freedom and journalists’ organisations ask the parliament and the president to reject the government-approved cut in RTVS’s funding by 30%.

RSF is greatly concerned over the disappearance of Minnie Chan, a reporter for Hong Kong daily South China Morning Post, who went missing in China.
