8. Excellence in Newspaper Design

Award: ¥xÆWÄ«ªG¤é³ø

Honorable Mention: Ä«ªG¤é³ø

¥xÆWÄ«ªG¤é³ø: The mix of photos, graphics and text presents a sharp impact on the readers. Eye-catching combinations of headlines, pictures, and graphics. The design of the front pages is creative, especially the coverage on Shih Ming-teh. The layout of the design displays strongly the key messages of the news stories. Strong use of the advantages of Chinese language to communicate visual and textual meaning. Even though some of the news was sensational and frankly quite sad (the drowned man in the flood), there was no question that, in the beach rescue story really did make the reader follow the flow of the page as they explained it.

9. Excellence in Magazine Design

Award: ¥Í¬¡ (¬ü³N³¡)

Honorable Mention: ¸¹¥~ (¬ü³N³¡)

¥Í¬¡: Package design is excellent. It gives readers a surprised feeling, not only a magazine but a gift instead. There is a concept behind the design: it experiments with paper texture, cutting holes into the cover, etc. The July 1 2006 issue cover features a lonely tree, with lots of blank space that allows your imagination to roam.

10. Excellence in Magazine Front Cover Design

Award: ©ú³ø©P¥Z - "¯d¦í³o­·¥ú" (®}«C)

Honorable Mention: ¨È¬w¶g¥Z - "¥H¦â¦C¤¤°ê¥Á¤u½ä©R"¡]§E¤å¥Í¡^

©ú³ø©P¥Z: A strong and striking cover that captured in one simple image the feeling of a district left over from another time, fully integrating the story's themes into its design. The MPW font done in the same style as the paint on the iron sliding gate is a great way of extending the central idea of the story to the entire cover, and serves as a metaphor for the past and future of the fruit market. The design made very strong use of the unique pictorial nature of the Chinese language, creating visual-linguistic messages that are completely impossible to duplicate in English (or most other languages).

Honorable Mention: ©ú³ø©P¥Z - "¥xÆW"½Õ´ºÀ­"¦^¾Ðªº¥N»ù" (³¯¾åÁ¢)

¤Ñ¤UÂø»x: A classic demonstration that journalists can be of great help for the advancement of society. An in-depth and comprehensive report that spreads the message for a better Taiwan.

15. Excellence in Reporting Breaking News

Honorable Mention: ¤µ©P¥Z - "©ú°ò§õµOïú-»{¿ù" ¡]§õ®Ñ»ô¡^

°Ó·~©P¥Z: A thorough analytical piece of a commercial fraud case. Well-written and precise, the article presents an in-depth microscopic view on the main character and the news event itself. These forces fit neatly within the broader political and economic undercurrents at play. Detailed explanations given on the process of using SPV, structured bond issuance and hidden third party firm for the acquisition. The graphic illustration on the timeline and relationship was excellent in enabling readers to capture the main points.

16. The Scoop Award

Award: ©ú³ø - "«C®ü®È«È³Q›Ó¨t¦C" (¿c°Ò«ä¡B³°­Å¬Õ¡B±i©¨Ìq¡B¦ó¹Å±Ó¡B¶À¶¯)

Honorable Mention: °Ó·~©P¥Z - "¨F¯Q¦a¤ý¤l" (§d­×¨°¡B·¨¤Ö±j¡B¦¶¬ö¤¤)

©ú³ø: Exclusive, quite an achievement considering the difficulty in getting the interview. High resonance from both Hong Kong and Mainland China.

17. Local Journalist Award - Chinese-language

Award: Apple Daily (³¯¨K±Ó)

Apple Daily: Ms Chan demonstrated high quality of journalism by re-visiting controversial issues from historical perspective. She went to Japan and Burma to cover the stories. Her articles gave readers a comprehensive review of the historical event - its past and present. Her vigorous efforts to search for proper interviewees, though a very basic principle of journalism, proved important to a news story. She was able to demonstrate her journalistic skills in delivering stories even though she didn¡¦t have the chance to interview anyone of significance to the historical event.
