Sing Po was first published on 14 February 1890 by Koh Yew Hean Press as the second Chinese-language daily newspaper in Singapore. The paper was founded by Lin Hengnan, who was the proprietor of Koh Yew Hean Press, on No. 101, Telok Ayer Street. The paper was published daily, except on Sundays and public holidays. Issues of the newspaper were printed in red ink. Despite not having a political agenda, the paper had a pro-China political stance. The editor of the newspaper was likely Lin and Huang Naishang was reported to have been a one-time editor and chief writer of the newspaper. At the newspaper's peak, it had a daily circulation of 970, which was higher than the daily circulation of Lat Pau, the paper's closest competitor. The paper frequently published articles asking for the government to solve the issues of prostitution, opium smoking and gambling. The newspaper closed down in 1898, possibly due to mismanagement. The newspaper was replaced by Jit Shin Pao a few months later in 1899 after restructuring. References
