Honduras squeezes Chinese firms; Super Typhoon Champi nears Taiwan: SCMP’s 7 highlights
We have selected seven stories from this week’s news across Hong Kong, mainland China, the wider Asia region and beyond that resonated with our readers and shed light on topical issues. If you would like to see more of our reporting, please consider subscribing.
What the coverage shows
All three outlets center Typhoon Champi, but they frame its track differently: AP says it is brushing by Taiwan, Reuters first says it is approaching Japan and later says it is approaching Taiwan, and SCMP only mentions the storm in a roundup headline. Reuters is the only outlet whose extracts add shutdowns in Taiwan, while AP emphasizes live coverage and SCMP provides no storm details in the extract.
Written by Crossfiled from the 1 headlines and extracts below, not from the articles themselves. It describes how the outlets framed this, not what happened. Open any headline for a summary of that article.
