History See Hua Daily News began publication in as a local newspaper in 1952. In its early days, it published as a large, two folio-sized paper published daily.
In April 2016, See Hua Daily News was criticized for a series of publications which labeled Taiwan a "fraud island," as well as criticizing the Taiwanese legal system. The publications were viewed by Chinese netizens as being overly subservient to the Chinese government, due to this stance on Taiwan.
In 2019, another controversy occurred following an editorial mandate stating that "China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan" should instead be written as "China, which includes Hong Kong and Taiwan." Following this, some See Hua Daily News employed went on strike to protest.
Awards In 2023, in the Kinabalu Press Award, See Hua Daily News won awards in the category of Chinese-language publications for Entertainment, Culture and Arts Reporting and Sports Journalism.
