RTHK wins Asia-Pacific broadcasting award

Radio Television Hong Kong has won an Asia-Pacific broadcasting award. There were over 100 entries from 30 countries and regions across the Asia-Pacific at this year’s Together for Planet, People, and Peace Media Awards, which was organised by the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union. The competition was divided into video and audio categories, with a focus on people, peace and the planet. RTHK Radio 5’s programme “It’s a Happy Day” won the radio award for the “Peace” category on Wednesday. The show’s aim was to help people deal with stress and negative emotions during the Covid-19 pandemic. Each of the programme’s 365 episodes was about a minute long and packed with information listeners could use to improve their mental health. Meanwhile, a news feature report by RTHK’s Chinese News and Current Affairs team was also nominated for a radio award under the “Planet” category. The news team interviewed Mok Ho-kwong, who is also known as “Wild Man” for his philosophy on the environment.
