Deskripsi

MAJOR TRENDS 1. Mobile Television is still the dominant medium and primary source of news in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand. But audiences are going online and connecting via mobile at an astounding pace. Singapore was authoritarian before digital technology and is more open today because of it. The government and its media establishment show willingness to widen the parameters of acceptable debate. Singaporeans move seamlessly from offline to online and mobile, while still reading in print and watching television and movies on mobile devices and sharing news in a variety of forms. 2. Journalism Most countries in the region have significant ethnic/religious divides, and digital media have provided new and prolific opportunities for these to be exploited through hate speech and extremist content. Journalism has suffered from a lack of critical and independent professionalism. The news agenda is set by politicians, officials, and the PR industry. There is very little “added value” reporting in the form of background, context, analysis, balance, or multiple sourcing. Digitization has made this bad situation even worse. 3. Independent regulation None of these countries has a truly independent broadcast and/or telecoms regulator.
