  Mr. HONDA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Sing Tao Daily. On 
August 1, 2015, Sing Tao Daily will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 
San Francisco, California. Since 1975, Sing Tao Daily's Western Edition 
has covered local, state, and international news for Chinese American 
communities in the Silicon Valley, Seattle, Portland, and Hawaii. The 
organization is a leading content and service provider for global 
Chinese communities.
  Headquartered in Hong Kong, Sing Tao Daily was the first Chinese 
language newspaper to publish overseas. The San Francisco Edition was 
the company's first global expansion and ranks as the highest paid 
circulation publication among Chinese language newspapers outside of 
China. Sing Tao Daily has been instrumental in helping Chinese 
immigrants adapt to their new country. Dedicated to journalistic 
integrity and recognized for its quality pieces, Sing Tao Daily has 
presented balanced reports and earned national awards from New American 
Media and local media organizations. As one of the world's most widely 
read Chinese newspapers, Sing Tao Daily has earned distinction as a 
global name in the print media market.
  During its lifetime, the multimedia news group has served 625,000 
Chinese Americans in the San Francisco Bay Area. Mr. Speaker,

I commend Sing Tao Daily for its service and dedication to providing 
quality media, which have deeply enriched our Chinese communities.
