The New Zealand operator of three Chinese-language radio stations and an online news site—which it claimed made it the largest foreign-language outlet in the country—has been put into receivership by its largest shareholder, Fu-nu Tsai.

Best News Entertainment operates three stations, Chinese Voice, Love FM, and AM936, as well as a digital news outlet called NZ936, plus a free-to-air TV channel, TV32, which broadcasts original programming, news, and state programming from Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China.
