In the media category, the South China Morning Post won three prizes at the 19th w3 Awards, presented by the Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts in the United States.

The Post’s photography team’s photo of a Hong Kong family living in the notoriously squalid “coffin homes” took first merit in the category of Best Feature Photo.
