To stop it bleeding further, should consider horizontal business migrations

Logically, Switch to manufacturing of toilet papers, baby nappies and napkins will instantly, improve sales volume and increase profitability.

Singapore can be ranked World's No.1

ABNN Minister said otherwise in 2021 leh
In his statement, Mr Iswaran noted that SPH's overall reach and readership have never been higher, with SPH papers' total circulation growing by 5 per cent from 2017 to 2020. Within this period, The Straits Times' print and digital circulation has grown by about 20 per cent.

SPH should not destroy the 10% to 15% of the news print, but to state the actual number of news print.  To destroy the large number of hard copy newspaper is a big waste, only to cheat on the prints just to cheat advertisers for the money paid.......... crying

Inviting throngs of foreigners does not equate to higher readership.

That is true too, FTs only want to see news from their homeland. Also, they would prefer to read the digital newspaper as opposed to the hard copy newspaper which now cost $1.10 per copy..... Big Grin
