On Sept. 3, 1952, Y. P. “Nancy” Huang, with her husband, Y. M. Huang, oversaw the publication of Taiwan’s first English language Chinese newspaper. Mrs. Huang, who was 36, had recently graduated the University of Colombia with a journalism degree. At the time, foreigners had dominated Chinese newspapers. Mr. Huang felt that they should establish one for themselves. Later, Mr. and Mrs. Huang, who were both seasoned English journalists, founded the China Post at Fushun St.
The China Post led an enormous global expansion. To satisfy the needs of its international subscribers, the Post established overseas airmail lines to Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Besides the English Daily, the Bilingual Post gave popular hints for Taiwanese students who aspired to take university entrance exams. In 2008, the Post exclusively joined the Asia News Network, a regional newspaper coalition based in South, Southeast and Northeast Asia. Paul Chen, the Post’s former managing editor, praised the global triumph, before his departure from office a year later.
In 2016, the Post was relocated to Zhongxiao E. Rd., after former legislator George Hsieh became its chairman. Mr. Hsieh, who formerly published Mirror Media, launched the Post’s official website and digital app. In May 2017, Mr. Hsieh subsequently “canceled” the Post’s print issues as a “transition to an all-digital news platform.” The Post will follow a “digital-only future” news format, he said.
