Hong Kong mourns loss of “old friend” Apple Daily
Update: 2021-06-27
Description
Hong Kong's feisty Apple Daily newspaper printed its last copy on June 24. The 26-year-old pro-democracy tabloid is the latest victim to an ever-broadening crackdown on public criticism of the government under a draconian national security law imposed on Hong Kong by the ruling Chinese Communist Party a year ago.And we examine growing criticism of Vietnam as the government struggles to vaccinate its 95 million citizens. After receiving praise for its handling of the pandemic, the country's pace of vaccination has fallen behind even poorer nations in the region.
