Singapore’s broadcaster Channel News Asia wins Award for Outstanding Reporting on #ClimateChange

SINGAPORE: Channel News Asia (CAN) won an award for outstanding reporting on climate change at the Asiavision Awards in New Delhi, India, on Oct 4, 2022.

CNA’s Steven Chia, an award winning journalist with over two decades of experience in the media industry, received the award.

This is the second year in a row that #CNA has won in this category. CNA is a Singaporean multinational news channel owned by the country’s national public broadcaster #Mediacorp.

This year’s winning entry highlights how technology is helping Singapore’s fashion industry, with CNA reporter Lisha Rodney looking at how the industry is going beyond swap meets and up-cycling in pursuit of sustainability.

The Singapore-headquartered media company shared the top honor in the category with KBS South Korea.

The six nominees in this category were evaluated on the basis of the news merit of the issue. They were also judged on the quality of the analysis and the completeness of the information, as well as the impact and awareness created.

Last year, CNA won for its coverage on declining biodiversity in Singapore.

The awards, organized by the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union, were presented at the Global News Forum in New Delhi, India.
