Rediffusion returns to Singapore

Rediffusion returns to Singapore

3 Jun – Singapore cable radio broadcaster Rediffusion, which went off-air for about a year, was officially relaunched as a digital service on Thursday.

The digital version of Rediffusion will deliver both conventional and new content to audiences via its website and mobile app. Listeners can also stream it live on its website.

Former radio deejay Eva Chang had acquired the rights to Singapore's Rediffusion along with some other assets last year. She now helms the company with veteran Singaporean singer Dick Lee as her creative director.

According to a report in Omy.sg news portal, Rediffusion plans to venture into the television industry at a later date, elaborating that a Chinese-language learning channel will be provided for primary school students.

Earlier this month, Channel News Asia reported that Rediffusion would still provide content in Chinese dialects under the banner of Rediffussion Classic. As of December last year, the radio station's premises had been relocated to Burn Road.
