This paper explores the development of English media in Macau, a region known for its Chinese and Portuguese language dominance. While the English media market is smaller than other languages, it caters to the English-speaking communities in Macau, including foreign migrants and immigrants. However, more research is needed on how English media influences the culturally diverse Macau under its current regime. As Macau soon celebrates its 25th anniversary since its return to China in 1999, it is fitting to examine the region's media development. This paper aims to understand the connection between the media's contribution to Macau's development and the freedom of the press. By analysing the role of English media in Macau, we can gain insights into the dynamics of a multilingual media environment and its implications for the region's cultural and social fabric. The findings of this study contribute to the existing literature on media and provide a deeper understanding of the role of English media in Macau's societal and economic progress.
