Launched as a bilingual publication in 2006, this free daily newspaper served Singapore’s diverse demographic by providing curated news in both English and Chinese. It became a notable fixture in the local media landscape for its concise reporting style and its role as a strategic bridge between the country's two primary languages before ceasing print operations in 2016.

MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN SINGAPORE

Structured around the country's four official languages, the local press market is heavily consolidated under major corporate ownership rather than independent publishers. The historic English-language broadsheet Straits Times, founded in 1845, operates as the nation's flagship and most widely circulated daily paper. Specialized and native-language publications cater to distinct demographic groups, including the regional financial broadsheet Business Times, the Malay-language Berita Harian, and the Tamil-language Tamil Murasu. Paperboy lists 13 newspapers in Singapore.
