After years of silence, HKCitizen.net is making a comeback.
Our Journey: From Podcast to Independent News
HKCitizen.net began its journey in April 2007 as a pioneering podcast network, providing a platform for Hongkongers to discuss news, culture, and global affairs. At its peak, we operated 17 podcast channels, covering everything from current affairs to diaspora experiences.
For years, we built a community of listeners who sought independent perspectives, unfiltered discussions, and a space to connect. However, as the media landscape shifted and challenges grew, our podcasts gradually faded into silence. But the need for truthful, independent reporting has only become more urgent.
Why We Are Relaunching
The world has changed, and so has the role of independent journalism. Press freedom in Hong Kong continues to decline, and misinformation spreads faster than ever. Now, more than ever, Hongkongers—whether at home or in the diaspora—need a reliable source of news that speaks from our perspective.
That is why HKCitizen.net is back. This time, we are relaunching as an independent news platform, committed to reporting with integrity, accuracy, and a deep understanding of Hong Kong and its global community.
What to Expect
HKCitizen.net will cover:
• Hong Kong & Global News – Bringing critical updates with in-depth analysis.
• UK & Hong Kong Diaspora Affairs – Exploring issues affecting Hongkongers abroad.
• Politics & Human Rights – Reporting on governance, democracy, and civil liberties.
• Culture & Identity – Preserving Hong Kong’s heritage and global connections.
Our core mission remains unchanged: Bridging Hongkongers. Reporting Truth.
Join Us in This New Chapter
This relaunch is not just about reviving a website—it is about rebuilding a platform where Hongkongers can stay informed, engaged, and connected. Whether you have been with us since our podcast days or are discovering us for the first time, we invite you to be part of this journey.
Stay tuned for more updates, and follow us as we take HKCitizen.net into its next chapter. We are back.
