A Changing Media Landscape in Asia: New APF Canada-Asia Agenda

In the latest issue of Canada-Asia Agenda, titled “A Changing Media Landscape in Asia: Challenges for Canada,” author Hugh Stephens says that despite regulatory challenges, growth in the cinema box office and television revenues in Asia has been phenomenal. Yet, the ‘Canadian brand’ within the media and entertainment industry in Asia remains virtually non-existent. In this piece, Mr. Stephens examines the forces reshaping the media industry in Canada and Asia and its impact on the regulatory landscape for media and entertainment in the Asia Pacific region across a spectrum of issues, from content control to protection of intellectual property to dissemination of the national ”voice”.
