Ensure the HK media licensing process to follow ICCPR in order to protect the freedom of speech, opinion and expression.

Created by A.S. on October 17, 2013

The denial of over-the-air terrestrial broadcast license to Hong Kong upstart TV Network HKTV may violate the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights(ICCPR), which requires a government to be objective and reasonable, clear, transparent, and non-discriminatory in order to protect the freedom of speech, opinion and expression. Over 470,000 people have signed a Facebook petition protesting the decision to reject HKTV's license application, and this is created to gather official response for international awareness.
