Kuik Cheng Kang is the current Group Editor-in-Chief of Media Chinese International Limited (Malaysia). With over forty years of experience in journalism and publishing, he oversees four major Chinese-language newspapers under the group: Sin Chew Daily, Nanyang Siang Pau, China Press, and Guang Ming Daily.

During his tenure as Editor-in-Chief of Sin Chew Daily, Kuik spearheaded several distinctive and influential editorial features, including Warm Power, Health Matters, Seek Truth, We, As Clouds Rise, Youth Potential, Discover ASEAN, Sunday Cover Story, and ‘Editor’s Time’ column.

In 2022, Kuik initiated cross-media collaboration by bringing together the editors-in-chief of the English daily The Star, the Malay daily Sinar Harian, and the private television network Astro Awani to form a media alliance. This alliance operates through periodic cooperation and resource sharing, jointly producing reports and features aimed at delivering content with greater depth, breadth, and inclusiveness. In 2023, the Tamil-language daily Malaysia Nanban joined as the newest member of the alliance.
