The solicitation and showcase campaign was jointly initiated by the All-China Journalists Association together with the HKFJ, the Guangdong Journalists Association and the Macao Journalists Association. In the 2024 and 2025 selections, the Hong Kong region received more than 200 submitted works, covering all 15 categories, including news reports, commentaries, features, series reports, news photography, documentaries and converged reporting. After rigorous deliberation by the judging committee, 91 outstanding news works were ultimately selected, including 5 first prizes, 20 second prizes, 26 third prizes and 40 nomination awards. The award-winning works closely reflected the pulse of the times and focused on innovative practices, livelihood issues, cultural integration and coordinated development in the building of the Greater Bay Area.
It is understood that the Hong Kong Federation of Journalists was founded in 1996 by dozens of patriotic and pro-Hong Kong industry backbone figures. It has since grown to nearly 2,000 members, covering more than 30 print, electronic and new media organizations across Hong Kong, as well as universities and the corporate communications sector. It has now become a professional journalism body in Hong Kong with the largest membership, the broadest coverage and significant influence.
