Background
The Epoch Times, a newspaper based in New York, is produced in 8 languages and is distributed in more than 30 countries around the world. The Chinese-language edition has become a powerful news source in the Chinese-language market. Not only is it the most widely distributed Chinese-language newspaper in the world; the Epoch Times, as an independent newspaper, reports the news free of any influence from the Beijing Government, which has exerted an overwhelming influence over other Chinese-language media around the world.
Therefore, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has employed a variety of means to stop the publication of the Epoch Times wherever it can exert its influence.
On June 2, without any clear explanation, the Malaysian National Security Bureau confiscated the newspaper, although it had been circulating in Malaysia without any problems for a year. On June 17, the Malaysia government (Interior Ministry) banned issues #147 and #148; on July 14, 21, and July 28, it further banned issues #153, 154 and #155.
The Malaysia government is suppressing Freedom of the Press because the paper’s reports, “…may result in a negative impression on the ruling government of China.” The Malaysia Interior Ministry has willingly become an accomplice in the CCP’s harassment of and interference with the Epoch Times. In this news conference, the Epoch Times will expose all of the CCP’s deeds in suppressing freedom of the press around the world.
