RSF exhorte le législateur de #Taïwan à renoncer aux coupes budgétaires proposées concernant PTS et @taiwanplusnews, qui affaibliraient davantage le fonctionnement de ces médias et leur capacité à servir le public. Outil essentiel dans les démocraties permettant aux citoyens d’accéder à des informations indépendantes et fiables, les médias publics doivent donc bénéficier d’une totale indépendance et de ressources suffisantes pour remplir correctement leur mission d'intérêt général.
