13) How do I receive the lastest Hong Kong (HK) news?
The Alliance of Hong Kong Chinese in the US (AHKCUS) maintains
a mailing list called "hknews@ahkcus.org" which are mainly articles
from major news wires with news clipping primiarily focused in HK,
China and Taiwan. You can add your name to the AHKCUS Hong Kong News
mailing list by sending a request to "request@ahkcus.org".
China News Digest (CND) also has news related to Hong
Kong although the main focus is on China. To subcribe CND see
section (14). HKNET also has news articles similar to those in CND
and "hknews@ahkcus.org".
If you can read Chinese text on your terminal and PC, you can use
gopher to access the news service at National Sun Yat-sen University,
Kaohsiung, Taiwan, R.O.C. provided by the China Times News (Chung Kok See Po).
Main focus is on Taiwan but business news also include Hong Kong Hang
Sang Index. The gopher uses Big-5 codes for chinese characters.
[Questions on gopher and set up to read Chinese text on your terminal are
beyond the scope of SCHK FAQ. Reader should consult the FAQ's of
comp.infosystems.gopher and alt.chinese.text.big5 ].
RTHK now has a homepage setup in "www.cuhk.hk" which features
audio files for todays news. Really neat but it takes forever to
download the sound clips. :) :)
