Actually Yahoo report SG news is more direct never twist and turn like ST and CNA. Not sure is it " Govt wanna control and make Yahoo hard to operate " On side note yet claim " Be Globalisation , attract foreigner talents " on the other hand.

Yahoo SG has a very leftist slant. That's why they always list news from Huffpost, Guardian, The Independent etc.

Localised content for Philippines and Indonesia does not need editorial team in Singapore. Hope that those FTs are retrenched and sent back to Philippines and Indonesia to do their own local news.

Yahoo SG doesn't have a lot of local content. Mostly copy and paste from SCMP, Reuters, AFP and other news agencies. Don't need any journalists.

News is like this. Even ST , CNA , TODAY , AsiaOne also Copy and Paste from Reuters, CNN , BBC etc news agencies. Just edited but Source is from there first.

Our Local Media ONLY content they write is local news that all.
