Part of the ‘Star Franchise’ , which included numerous newspaper founded by the Aw family in various places in Asia, this weekly was founded after Singtao Daily News, Singtao Evening News and Singtao Morning News. It had a two-colour frontpage and black-and-white inner pages. The paper targeted Sinophone readers from ‘Nanyang and overseas’ with extensive reports on both Chinese and foreign news, including much coverage of China’s war with Japan, plus reviews, speeches, sketches from life, drama scripts and popular science centred on the themes of warfare and the military.
