Malaysia Online Newspaper

Malaysia as a developing country has seen a great deal of development in terms of I . t . recently. Such development naturally sparks sequence of events with fields at the same time, such as the electronic media and also to be specific the newspaper. Only a decade ago there was merely a handful of on-line newspapers in Malaysia but at that time this information is written, you will find 23 on-line newspapers which are currently active in Malaysia.

The newspaper publishers have been inside a dilemma, these are caught in times where they are able to decide to go against the IT mainstream, which is to stay as an offline newspaper publishers or they are able to opt to follow the mainstream which is to go on-line. But in any event there is a risk involved - when they elect to stay offline, they risk of losing to their competitors like the news business time is essential: The individual that brings good news the easiest for the readers is declared the winner.

On the other hand, when they choose to follow the crowd or mainstream, they're losing their revenue in the existing readers as being on-line means free reading. Of course, this content may be tailored or trimmed down so your paid version has much value-for-money consider it but then again it is just a break or make decision to generate.

Currently, I can only speculate that there are more good than bad to look on-line to the newspaper publishers in Malaysia as apparently there was no case where a newspaper publisher has gone bust. Hopefully, such trend continue there will be more Datuk Seri Fateh Iskandar later on.
