In a press conference, @selina_cheng of the @HKJA_Official said certain media outlets/journalists are being put through arbitrary tax audits, which imposes heavy costs and stress even when no wrongdoing is found, and potentially curtails press freedom.

I am so glad in retrospect that I never joined the Hong Kong Foreign Correspondents' Club, an organisation that has repeatedly disgraced itself over the past half a decade in exchange for a cheap bar.

India-US surprise trade deal resets fractured ties

.@JeffBezos, since I came to India early last summer to be the The Post's India bureau chief, one thing was abundantly clear: in India's media ecosystem very few outlets can do accountability reporting without fear of government censure. The Post is one of them. Since August, we showed the ways Indian billionaires got treated far better than others; the role of Indian conglomerates in fueling Russia's war in Ukraine; India's draconian deportation campaign of Muslims to Bangladesh and stories unpacking the breakdown in diplomatic relations between Washington and New Delhi. We in New Delhi want to keep doing our jobs so The Post readers can understand the South Asia region better — a wish we hope you share. #SaveThePost

This is a deep-dive on how India is executing one of the boldest bets in modern retail or what's called quick commerce.

PM Modi gave India’s middle classes significant tax relief in his budget to cushion the economy against global headwinds, but provided little direct support to the millions of unemployed who voted against him last year. From @DanStrumpf

"For years, India’s booming economy fueled exuberance that the South Asian nation had entered a new era of faster growth.....Now, a deepening slowdown is raising concerns that a three-year boom wasn’t the start of a new era but a blip."

Journalism is not seditious. Let’s be clear: all they are guilty of is doing journalism. This oppressive ruling shows #HongKong is descending further into authoritarianism

🧵 Bangladesh’s Prothom Alo newspaper has a front-page story on the final moments of Hasina’s tenure. She insisted on using brute force until only 45 minutes before her departure; no amount of pleading from her aides and officials could persuade her to relent. 1/n
