Hong Kong News Executives' Association
Set up in 1986, the Hong Kong News Executives' Association is dedicated to safeguarding and promoting freedom of the press, advancing standards of professional conduct and maintaining the unity and dignity of the profession. Members of the association include news executives of Hong Kong's major media organizations. Currently, it has more than 100 members.
Over the past 20 years, the association has promoted exchanges between local and overseas journalists and actively facilitated exchanges among news professionals from the mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau. The association has also provided training opportunities for aspiring journalists to help them face the challenges of a knowledge economy and globalisation.
As a keen advocate of press freedom, the association expects journalists to be guided by the public interest. It calls on journalists to abide by the principles of accuracy, objectivity and fairness in reporting, and encourages news executives to lead their staff to adhere to these principles. In 2000, the association joined hands with three other journalists' groups (Hong Kong Journalists' Association, Hong Kong Federation of Journalists and Hong Kong News Photographers' Association) to launch a joint code of ethics.
