《马来邮报》新面貌

期待《马来邮报》新面貌 

今天（4月23日）早上游览The Malaysian Insider时，发现这则该网站的独家新闻，112年历史的《马来邮报》将转型，变成政治性质浓厚的日报。

重新定位的《马来邮报》会是一份晚报，重点报道由人民联盟执政的5州新闻，绝对值得期待！

308政治海啸至今余震不断，连报章的生态都出现变化，先是掌管报章生死大权的内政部长赛哈密释放善意，表示愿意检讨报章每年更新准正的条例。

虽然不晓得他的诚意指数，至少听其言，观其行，看看政府是否具备改革勇气和魄力，还是讲爽而已。

《马来邮报》的转型将重新出击推介礼将在5月5日，于吉隆坡市区五星级酒店（NIkko Hotel）进行，不晓得谁主持推介礼？5州首长兼大臣？未来首相安华？未来内政部长阿兹敏阿里？未来新闻部长蔡添强？

Malay Mail to be political sheet

KUALA LUMPUR, April 23 — The Malay Mail, the Kuala Lumpur daily that has seen better days in its 112-year history, will turn into a political afternoon newspaper focused on Pakatan Rakyat-ruled states when relaunched May 5.

The Simpletech-Gabungan Kesturi consortium that bought The Malay Mail from NSTP Berhad have appointed industry veteran Tony Francis as editor with the tabloid's old news editor Frankie D'Cruz as consultant.

The Malaysian Insider has also learnt that former The Star political correspondent K. Baradan is helming The Malay Mail's political desk and is looking to hire reporters for states under the Pakatan governments.

The tabloid, which will continue to cover sports and entertainment news, has offered to retain its staff who were earlier employed by NSTP. The media giant sold the newspaper after revamps failed to stem falling circulation.
