Taiwan News
Taiwan News was founded 6 June 1949[1] by James Wei[2] as China News, offering news reports and editorials printed on a stencil press. At the time it was the only English-language daily newspaper in Taiwan. In 1960 the newspaper switched to block printing in a full-size page format.

On 28 February 2015, the news agency released the last print edition of its newspaper and switched to an all-digital format. It is now published online in both English and Mandarin versions.
