  • Reading Newspapers with the Elderly 陪你看报纸
    Reading Newspapers with the Elderly 陪你看报纸 A community initiative by Lianhe Wanbao & Lianhe Zaobao Singapore Engage • Enrich • Empower Since August 2014, Singapore’s Chinese dailies Lianhe Wanbao and Lianhe Zaobao have been promoting engagement with its matured readers with the Reading Newspapers with the Elderly initiative. For three times a week, our newsroom volunteers visit elderly Singaporeans and discuss the week’s hottest news with them. Through this simple but unique initiative, we hope to enrich the seniors’ lives and empower them to stay active, mentally and physically, and enjoy a fulfilling retirement. Why did we launch this initiative? Singapore’s population is ageing at an unprecedented rate. As the post-war Baby Boomers retire from workforce and enter their silver years, elderly population will grow rapidly in the next few decades. Many of our senior citizens are neither literate nor familiar with the English language, and the language barrier has made it difficult for the Chinese- speaking elderly to keep up with the fast-evolving society. Lianhe Zaobao and Lianhe Wanbao value the spiritual needs of our senior citizens and would like to do our part to help them lead a fulfilling retirement. As editors and journalists, we report on news of public interests every day. News is what we do best, so we believe that reading newspapers with the elderly is one way we can contribute to this cause. Why is this important? Many seniors in Singapore face the “empty nest syndrome”. Their children are often away and they only have the television and other seniors as company.

Journalism Ethics: Mainstream Versus Tabloid Journalists Through a survey of 356 journalists working for various newspapers under the Singapore Press Holdings, this study shows that despite the influence of newsroom culture, journalists working for the mainstream and tabloid newspapers may not differ in terms of their professional values and ethical standards. It is the content orientation of their newspaper or their perception of it that leads them to act differently in covering certain kinds of news. In other words, the institutional influence does have an impact on the ethical decision-making process among journalists in their daily operations even though it may not determine the direction of their personal beliefs and ethical values. Rosaline Yew Guey Er Hao Xiaoming Singapore Press Holdings Nanyang Technological University, Singapore ost daily newspapers are published in broadsheet format. MSome, however, are printed in a format known as the ‘tabloid’, which is about half the size of a broadsheet newspaper.

My name is Yeo Kim Yeong, and I broke the Guinness World Record Holder for "The Most Pull-ups in One Minute" in 2015. I have always believed that I have a greater purpose in life, and that is to help others. To be able to motivate and encourage them that their dreams are always achievable. As long as we have faith in ourselves, belief in our abilities, and never, ever give up on our dreams, we can achieve anything. I attempted the record in March 2015. But I was disqualified. Unbeknownst to me, the IPPT standard technique that I had trained with all along was not allowed on technical grounds. I thought I had failed. I had trained my entire life with this technique. I had taken leave from school for this. I had convinced my parents that this was going to be worth it. I had let down my gym trainers. And, I had failed the entire basis of my existence. But I refused to give up. Because I knew that I was chosen to do this.
