MANILA—The editorial independence of Hong Kong's most prestigious news organization is unaffected by its purchase 3 years ago by Chinese tech giant Alibaba, the organization's CEO said in an exclusive interview with ANC's "The Boss."

The SCMP's digital readership has grown worldwide, with a third of that coming from the ASEAN, including the Philippines, and another third of that in North America, Liu said because people find it to be a fair gauge of the true situation in China.Liu attributes this to the news organization's fairness in reporting that "not based on what just the West thinks" or "what China's propaganda says, but covers the in-between, covers the comprehensive truth.
