Hong Kong’s South China Morning Post scoops 60 awards at 45th Best of News Design Creative Competition
“These prestigious international awards are not only well deserved but they also remind us that quality content matters and is appreciated globally despite the increasingly difficult operating environment for the news business.”
For print stories awards, Victor Sanjinez of the Post’s infographic team bagged gold and silver prizes for his work in September 2023 on Bailu, or White Dew, one of the 24 solar terms in the Chinese lunar calendar, in the categories of “information graphics” and “illustration”.

The team was also given 25 awards of excellence for print stories.
For digital stories, Kaliz Lee of the Post’s infographic team won two silver awards for her explainer on the history and revival of Hanfu – traditional Chinese costumes – in recent years in the categories of “design: features” and “infoGfx: features”, with another five bronze medals on top of 24 awards of excellence handed out to the Post.
Carl Jones and Emilio Rivera from the Post’s print team also picked up an award for excellence for their layout design.
