  • The New Straits Times is an English-language newspaper published in Malaysia. It is Malaysia's oldest newspaper still in print (though not the first), having been founded as The Straits Times in 1845, and was reestablished as the "New Straits Times" in 1965. The paper served as Malaysia's only broadsheet format English language newspaper. However, following the heels of British newspapers The Times and The Independent, a tabloid version first rolled off the presses on 1 September 2004 and since 18 April, 2005, the newspaper is published only in tabloid size, ending a 160-year-old tradition of broadsheet publication. The New Straits Times currently retails at RM1.20. The New Straits Times is printed by the New Straits Times Press, which also produced the English language afternoon newspaper, The Malay Mail until 2008, as well as assorted Malay language newspapers, most notably the Berita Harian. The current Group Editor of the New Straits Times is Syed Nadzri Syed Harun, while Kamrul Idris Zulkifli is Deputy Group Editor. Executive Editors, as of January 1 2009, Lee Ah Chai (News) and Chandra Segaran (Production) and Lim Thow Boon.
