abstract:The Hong Kong Journalists Association (Chinese: 香港記者協會) was established in 1968 for practising journalists in Hong Kong "to enhance press freedom and the integrity of news coverage" (Who we are --- HKJA). The association acts as a trade union for journalists by seeking to improve working conditions for them and further works to aid journalists by striving to remove barriers journalists face when gathering news.
"The central government will be in a position to decide what is a state secret, " says Siu-Lan Law, the general secretary of the HongKongJournalistsAssociation.
