	SPH Still Without Licence as TV Launch Nears, Reuters report, 18.4.01 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		SPH MediaWorks had been expected to start airing trailers for its Chinese language Channel U in early April to allow viewers to get used to tuning in ahead of an official launch on May 6.
		SPH was supposed to get a broadcasting licence after the government decided to deregulate the domestic media industry last year, allowing state-owned TV company MediaCorp to venture into newspaper publishing and in turn, for the pro-government SPH group to go into broadcasting.
		Industry sources said it was unclear why the broadcasting authority was sitting on the licence to SPH but there was speculation the authority may be showing extra caution in granting a TV licence to a new operator in an election year.

		Today marks the end of SPH Mediaworks and Channel U. 4 years...
		Anyhow, this spells the end for any possible media competition in the next 10-20 years in Singapore as if a profitable firm like SPH has decided that it can't hold out the competition, I doubt any other company would dare to or have the capital to try induce any competition into the scene...
		SPH ambitiously demanding print journalist to multi-task and take on a variety of roles was the very reason why I chose to take up an SPH scholarship as I liked the challenge and the opportunities that came with it.

	Hard Times for the Media
		Touted as Singapore's "first integrated print and cyberspace news magazine," Project Eyeball, owned by the Singapore Press Holdings' (SPH), was barely two years old, but Tan was already drawing a salary that was six times his pay as a writer in Manila, and with a housing allowance to boot.
		Tan even says that because he was one of the handful who put the magazine to bed nightly, he felt like he was participating in a surreal tragicomedy as he walked out of the newsroom to go home that gloomy evening last June and literally bid Project Eyeball goodbye.
		Company executives said they had to cut costs "in the face of a weak advertising market." By December 2001, those who stayed on at SPH companies were forced to take salary cuts of as much as 12 percent.
