TJ ceased publication May 22, 2009. TT dates back to March 1, 1964 when it began publication as Free China Weekly. The paper’s mission was to deliver the government’s message to the world. On Jan. 1, 1984 it was renamed Free China Journal and then Taipei Journal Jan. 7, 2000. In March 2003, it was changed to Taiwan Journal.
