8world

8world News, Mediacorp's Chinese digital portal, offers breaking news, current affairs, and lifestyle content across multiple platforms. It is produced by Mediacorp's Chinese News and Current Affairs department, which also creates programming for Mediacorp's Mandarin-language television channels, Channels 8 and U.

Before 2010, 8world News delivered its broadcasts across three distinct time slots: News 8 At One (1点新闻): A daily midday bulletin, Singapore Today (狮城6点半): An early evening news program, News 8 at 10 (10点新闻): A late-night news report.

In 2010, Mediacorp underwent organisational changes, including a reduction in the MediaCorp News Group workforce. Simultaneously, Channel U sought to diversify its programming with more entertainment-focused content. As a result, Mediacorp discontinued all dedicated news programs on Channel U, effective March 29, 2010. The "News 8 at 10" program was subsequently shifted to an 11:00 PM timeslot and rebranded as "News Tonight" (晚间新闻).

On October 20, 2014, 8world News implemented further scheduling changes. "Hello Singapore" (狮城有约) replaced "Singapore Today" as the weekday early evening program. This new format integrated news segments within the show at 6:30 PM and 7:00 PM and was broadcast live. Additionally, "News 8 At One" (1点新闻) was discontinued for weekend broadcasts.

On March 13, 2017, Channel 8 News commenced broadcasting from its new headquarters at 1 Stars Avenue. This relocation followed the final broadcast from the previous Caldecott Hill location, "News Tonight," on March 12, 2017.

The move to the new facility facilitated a comprehensive upgrade, encompassing revised news graphics, modernised subtitles, and the implementation of advanced hardware.

Effective April 1, 2021, 8world News implemented subtitling in Chinese for its key programs: "News 8 At One," "Hello Singapore," and "Singapore Today."
