用心良苦,依然曲终人散, 非盈利SPH报业祈求生路? 囚鸟新闻,天天监督指导, 纳税人的阿公钱继续供养?

 


几十年前的老歌《用心良苦》,《曲终人散》和《囚鸟》,很适合拿来形容SPH报业控股的过去,今天和未来。


用心良苦,用尽一切方法,法律和行政手段,进行大合并组成报业控股。最后却成一个空字。


。。。

情滅了 愛熄了 剩下空心要不要 

春已走 花又落 用心良苦卻成空

我的痛 怎麼形容 一生愛 錯放妳的手

。。。



曲终人散,垄断市场,垄断新闻,政府大力支持,政党大力吹捧,终于敌不过盈利下降的厄运。红极一时,读者还会怀念吗?


。。。

我终于知道曲终人散的寂寞 

只有伤心人才有 

你最后一身红 

残留在我眼中 

我没有再依恋的借口 

。。。




囚禁的鸟,世界新闻排名倒数最后几名,还高喊自己有高尚节操。忘了做新闻的自由和独立,得到读者的爱自然越来越少,因为只能冷冷的看着说谎的报道。


。。。

我是被你囚禁的鳥 

已經忘了天有多高 如果離開你給我的小小城堡 

不知還有誰能依靠 我是被你囚禁的鳥 

得到的愛越來越少 看著你的笑在別人眼中燃燒 

我卻要不到一個擁抱 

我像是一個你可有可無的影子 

冷冷的看著你說謊的樣子

。。。

SPH报业控股走到今天,以及接下来的非盈利方向,无论是过去、现在和将来,他们在做决定的时候,从来就不征求读者的意见。


这表示什么?


读者不是新加坡报业控股的服务对象。他们的真正服务对象是政府 - PAP政府。


这就像一间公司,他们生产什么东西,推出什么服务,都是不重要。有没有人(读者)要它的产品/服务不重要,它的目地就是为特定机构服务和生产产品。这就是报业控股的未来。


它的存在就是为提供钱源,接受指导、监督,散布政府所要传达的信息。因此,它的将来,就像是高级网军。


纳税人有必要清楚知道,我们交的税,已经无条件支持了一家国营电视台、广播公司。现在,我们交的税,又拿来支持另一间国营报业集团。他们在很大程度上,不是独立单位。指导、监督都是来自政府,不是读者,不是纳税人。


报业控股重组,走非盈利路线,事实上,也就是拿纳税人的钱,为PAP政府服务。他们有没有问过读者,心目中需要一份什么样的报纸,什么样的新闻?没有,一点也没有。他们甚至连事先的调查都没有做,然后,就告诉读者之这是最好的选择。


这种小圈圈的决策,也正是PAP政府的决策范本。一个不听读者的声音,一个不听人民的声音。

Sub-standard PAP and the Singapore education system

I make a 'policy shift' when I hear the debate of right politics, constructive politics and sub-standard opposition. My original aim is to discuss about “Su Dongbo, Zhang Juzheng and Singapore education system”. The discussion will end with a sub-standard PAP, in particular from the assessment of the quality of PAP potential candidates. Another policy shift is to discuss it like a play, a drama and make it more entertainment rather than a sub-standard political discussion. Act 1 Gangster’s demand Imagine a sense in the Hong Kong's gangster movie (or a godfather movie), the gangsters' master is shouting at his poor opponent and demand him to give a price for his wrong act. The poor guy without any resources can only offer his body or his service to work for the master. Back in his own chamber, the master is still not satisfied and continues to shout 'don't play, play, you think you are hero, you think you are tiger, or superstar or acting ...

EBRC objectives: Stop “Out of Aljunied”, Stop SDP Breakthrough and “Negative-Asset” Ministers.

First of all, we have to congratulate the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee for creating more competitions, especially, multi-cornered competitions in the East. When making changes, EBRC aims to achieve 3 goals: To prevent “Out of Aljunied” for Workers’ Party.  This is the most important objective. To prevent Singapore Democratic Party making any breakthrough in the North and Central.   To look for a solution to retire “negative-asset” ministers or reduce PAP damages. From the reported claims from different political parties, we will expect multi-cornered contests not only in single constituencies but also in group representative constituencies. The PAP hopes to have a repeat of 2011 Presidential Election. Then Tony Tan won the Presidency when he got only 35% of the votes, a narrow win.However, a win is still a win. He did in even in the very last minute, after recounts of votes.    How to achieve multi-cornered contests? By i...

Is Prism Project Another Central Planning of the PAP?

There are 3 scenarios under the Prism Project#1 of Institute of Public Policy.  However, it looks more like the central scenario planning of the People’s Action Party. From the instructional menu of Prism Project Primer #2, participants were guided to a situation in 2022 and they have to imagine, within the Primer framework, to come out with 3 possible scenarios in Jun-Aug 2012.  2022. What a coincidence! Not long ago, PM Lee declared that he would like to hold the prime minister post for another 10 years. The other coincidence is the similarity between the 3 scenarios and the candidates of PE2011. How competitive and sustainable are the 3 scenarios to the people of Singapore and to the PAP?   Will the scenarios produce competitive and sustainable Singapore, Singaporeans or the PAP?  Perhaps, as what the Chinese say: planning cannot always catch up with changes.   And planning sometimes turns out the wrong, bad and unexpected results, espec...
