Chiang Kai-shek was fiercely opposed to communism, but that certainly did not mean he gave his own media any freedom. Another example is India, which was not a dictatorship like Taiwan but a country where, until the beginning of the 1990s, broadcast media were government owned in the name of national development and unity, and where the Soviet model of the state as the basic agency of economic development had held sway ever since independence from British rule in 1947.
