History

The CNA agency was founded 1 April 1924; 99 years ago (1924-04-01), by the Kuomintang party. Its headquarters was originally located in Guangzhou in Guangdong province, but had to be relocated to Taipei in 1949, following the defeat of the Republic of China government in mainland China in the Chinese Civil War.[1]

Despite the corporatisation of the agency in 1973, it continued to receive heavy government subsidies, and remained the nation's official agency. At the time, CNA journalists received preferential treatment on various occasions, mostly government-related press conferences.[citation needed]

After democratization, on 1 July 1996, the agency became a non-profit organisation under a bill passed by the Legislative Yuan.[1] As of 2022, it is still Taiwan's official news agency, and received part of its funding from the Executive Yuan. However, its media influence is said[by whom?] to have diminished due to a rise in competition after the government decided to lift restrictions on mass media.[citation needed]

English version website is Focus Taiwan. A Spanish language edition, Enfoque en Taiwán, was closed 31 March 2021.[2] In August 2021, CNA oversaw the launch of the TaiwanPlus streaming platform.[3]
