8world News is a Singaporean news broadcasting company. It broadcasts in Mandarin Chinese. [1] It is produced by Mediacorp's Chinese News and Current Affairs department, which also creates programming for Mediacorp's other Mandarin-language television channels, Channels 8 and U.
Before 2010, 8world News delivered its broadcasts at midday, evening, and late at night.
In 2010, Mediacorp underwent organisational changes, including a reduction in the MediaCorp News Group workforce.
On October 20, 2014, 8world News implemented further scheduling changes. "Hello Singapore" replaced "Singapore Today" as the weekday evening program. This new format integrated news segments within the show and was broadcast live. Additionally, midday news was abandoned on weekends.
On March 13, 2017, Channel 8 News commenced broadcasting from its new headquarters. This relocation followed the final broadcast from the previous Caldecott Hill location on March 12, 2017. [2]
The move to the new facility facilitated a comprehensive upgrade, encompassing revised graphics, modernised subtitles, and the implementation of advanced hardware.
On April 1, 2021, 8world News implemented subtitling in Chinese for its programs.
