Ta Kung Pao (simplified Chinese: 大公报; traditional Chinese: 大公報; pinyin: Dàgōng Bào; Jyutping: daai6 gung1 bou3; formerly L'Impartial in Latin-based languages) is the oldest active Chinese-language newspaper in China. Founded in Tianjin in 1902, the paper is state-owned, controlled by the Liaison Office of the Central Government after the Chinese Civil War.[1][2] It is widely regarded as a veteran pro-Beijing newspaper.[3][4] In 2016, it merged with Hong Kong newspaper Wen Wei Po.[5]
