Following our recent statement expressing concern over the closure of All About Macao, the Society of Journalists and Communication Professionals in Asia (JOCPA) welcomes the attention the issue has received in international and Portuguese-language media. Our call to defend press freedom and protect journalistic plurality has sparked important public debate and been picked up by several outlets.
The coverage includes:
📎 Hoje Macau — Association voices concerns over the closure of a Macau title.
📎 Ponto Final (PDF) — Local reporting and commentary on the implications for media pluralism.
📎 RTP — Coverage highlighting JOCPA’s warning about the silence from Portugal and the EU.
📎 AMAN (Atlantic Federation of News Agencies) — International dissemination of the issue and the broader press-freedom concerns.
We sincerely thank these outlets for amplifying our message and contributing to the broader conversation on the importance of safeguarding independent media in Macau and across the region. JOCPA will continue to monitor developments closely and remains ready to support journalists and media organisations facing pressure or repression.
