Straits Times Interactive Online

For news from Singapore and the Asian region, we highly recommend the range of news content from the Singapore Press Holdings. You can check all of their newspapers on the Internet, including the most widely read newspaper in Singapore, The Straits Times. Recently, the Internet version of the newspaper, the Straits Times Interactive (STI), has enhanced its use of technology to give readers more than the print edition. The site provides real time breaking news as it unfolds, is filled with multimedia and interactive graphics, web specials, weekly supplements (Digital Life, Mind your Body and Urban) as well as a seven day archive - all this available any time and anywhere at your convenience from any Internet browser.
